Prerender

When I try a Selectively Prerender from the Tools menu, with a selection on the timeline, it sets off rendering and then about 5 seconds later it stops and puts up an error saying prerender failed undetermined error...

I can render from the timeline ok when I do a full render but not from the Tools menu .

Using Vv4c
WinXP


Any ideas

Are you sure you are pre-rendering to that drive? The pre-render drive is set under File-Properties.

Selctive prerender has only worked in AVI for me from the beginning. I do not believe that it was intended to prerender in anything else. It wouldn't make any sense to prerender in MPEG.
