If I have real time color corrected shots and am going to output a quicktime ref for a Sorenson Squeeze MPEG 2 encode, do I need to render those shots before the QT ref?  Thanks, jdw

Well, yes and no. You don't have to hit the render in to out button but, on export, the system will render those effects for you.

ah, good to know.  thanks!

This is acutally the method I sometimes use to render a bunch of sequences at a time, export QT references of them which will render the needed fx.

Now that's F'ing clever!!! Just goes to show you can still learn something new everyday. Nice thinking outside the box Scott!

I'm a mad genuis LOL.

This method is especially handy when  you want to go for lunch but render different sequences at the same time :)
