Monitoring the rendering process
The Render Queue window displays both elapsed time and estimated time remaining for
the composition being rendered. In addition, the Render Queue window displays the
following information for all queued items:
Message Contains a status message.
RAM Shows the memory available for the rendering process.
Renders Started Lists which items in the queue have started rendering.
Total Time Elapsed Shows the time elapsed for all items that have been rendered or are
currently being rendered.
Log File Shows the name and location of the file to which rendering status messages are
written. After Effects creates a log file, AE Log (date/time).txt. The path of the log file is
displayed in the Render Queue window during rendering. Use the Log menu in the Render
Queue window to select which information is written to the log file.
Checking rendering status
The status line in the Render Queue window provides important information on the
results of the rendering process. Render queue status options include the following:
Unqueued The render item is listed in the Render Queue window but is not ready to
render. Confirm that you have selected the desired render and output module settings,
and then select the Render option to queue the composition.
Queued The composition is ready to render.
Needs Output An output filename has not been specified for one of the output modules.
