I can see that method working well, but i= n this project the precomps (and there a lot of them) overlap each other qui= te a bit. That's why the main comps are so long. And when I go from one main= to the next main comp, I have the end of the previous comp at the top of th= e next one to keep the flow going. Anyway, rendered 124 pieces over five hou= rs last night. Now to check them out.

And shifting g= ears a bit, any suggestions for batching 124 MOVs into WMVs?

Many thanks,
