Background rendering

Background render would be amazing. My problem is that:
- Our video projects are stored on a network server. Although we have between 1-10GbE connection to server, it still slows down render times.
- When rendering sequence, I can't do an ounce of work in PPro.

When doing general editing work, I'm rarely using more then 75% processing capacity, generally around 30-60%, there's plenty of of processer room to render a sequence in background.

- CPU / RAM / GPU usage to be capped to a user setting so that we can adjust how much power can be used when rendering in background. (Prevents it freezing up PC while editing)

- Sequence could be locked while rendering in background. Projects I work on always have multiple sequences, if I could let one render in background while I worked on another that would be very useful.

Along with background rendering, thumbnails in the Project window should be rendered in the background anytime the processor isn't exclusively needed for some other task. The way thumbnails only render when brought into view in pure insanity! Every time I open a Bin of shots, my computer slows down to a crawl as Pr renders thumbnails for the shots that can be seen in the Bin. If I scroll down to bring more shots into view, my computer slows down to a crawl yet again while thumbnails are rendered for those shots. It only slows everything down for a few seconds each time, but it's incredibly frustrating nonetheless! Please fix basic things like this before introducing any more niche tools!

Please slow down everyone.

They are looking for it. I think bg rendering will be THE next killer-feature.

Any news on automatic and smart background rendering?

That's one of the few missing feature that others software do (resolve, fcpx) that i really want !

It's been years, and Still Adobe is pending this extremely helpful features. Come on Adobe

Any official comment on background renders from Adobe?! I see post requesting this feature since 2016.... why are we paying so much each month so no real updates. I'm currently learning and switching to Davinci Resolve for its better performance. Dynamic links are good with Adobe products, but preview performance is way more important for me. Please, at less acknowledge that you are listening to your community! I don't see any comment from administrators anywhere on the forms.

@Scott@7224 Crozier - Absolutely agreed! It just seems like a great way for us to all feel like we're being useful by submitting bugs, but they might as well be going into a massive garbage bin.

This user voice thing has to be a joke. There are 72 items "under review" and Adobe has marked 3 as "in progress." All of the things in progress are relatively minor or inconsequential features compared to the top voted features such as this one. Certainly they can work on more than 3 minor features a year. The point of this was supposed to prioritize the needs of editors instead we get scene cut detection, a somewhat niche workflow.

*Endless sigh*

Yes please!
