Network rendering - "queued" - Please help!

dibbkd wrote on 9/9/2006, 6:46 PM
I'm trying the network rendering for the first time.

When I try to render with distributed network, the status is "Queued", and the log status says "Starting Vegas Network Render Service", but it's been like this for 15 minutes.

Shouldn't it have started already?

I have Vegas 6.0d, my mapped drives are "V:", all my other network settings work fine (ie: copying files back and forth between pc's, etc)

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, not sure what.

Edit: Also, after clicking "Render using network computers", then clicking on "Distributed Rendering", the only PC that shows up in the Render Host drop-down box is the local PC I am on, the other PC doesn't show up as an option.

Have you installed Vegas on the other PC's?

Yes, same SN#, registered, and all that good stuff.

And I do have the Network Render Service running on both PC's.

While everyone is waiting for V7, anyone know how to network render?

Please.

I have similar problems and still have not figured out what is wrong.

Maybe you could check out this link and figure out your problem:

Hey thanks, I was about to post something like "I already read that in the help file".. but I kept reading and I either found something new or didn't read it the first time.

I haven't added my PC's to the Renderers tab in the Render Service application. Makes sense..

I'll try it when I get home tonight and let you know if it worked.

Thanks!

Well, I added my PC's to the Renderers tab, but it still says "Queued", and just sits there.

Does anyone use network rendering?

Help?

Did you get my email? I sent you several paragraphs of what to do, but didn't hear back.

John, I just now read your email, I'll go through it this evening and see if I can get it working.

Thanks so much!

I have experienced the same problem with 6.0d, too. Would you share your solution with me?
