How to render every Nth frame? Hi Folks,
I am trying to figure out how to get AE to skip a certain number of frames when rendering. For example, how can I tell it to render every 10th frame, and to skip the ones in between? Seems like I've seen it before in AE but can't seem to find it. Can this be done?
Thanks in advance,
Joel Miller

Re: How to render every Nth frame? That's what I was afraid of. Thanks Aaron.

Re: How to render every Nth frame? Depending on how long your piece was, you could precomp it all and set timeremap held keyframes.
Re: How to render every Nth frame? You can specify Nth frame rendering when you render from the command line using aerender:
"-i increment" where increment is the number of frames to
advance before rendering a new frame. A value
of 1 (the default) results in a normal rendering
of all frames. Higher increments will repeat the
same (frame increment-1) times and then render a
new one, starting the cycle again. Higher values
result in faster renders but choppier motion.
Default is 1.
so:
aerender -i 2 -project /Volumes/Stuff/projects/proj1.aep -comp "Comp 1"
-output /Volumes/Stuff/output/proj1/proj1.mov
