Question

Setting logType for RenderQueueItem does seem to work, but no logs are created

Hi There,

 

So, I'm trying to understand why I cannot set Logging option for any given RenderQueueItem in my script.

 

For example, I have the following (pseudocode):

var myRQItem = app.project.renderQueue.items.add(myComp);
myRQItem.logType = LogType.ERRORS_AND_PER_FRAME_INFO;

 

Then, when I double check the .logType property for the RenderQueueItem, I do see that it has the value of the "ERRORS_AND_PER_FRAME_INFO" constant.  However, when I execute the render the logs actually do not show up.  Does anybody know why?

 

I found this older post at Creative Cow where another developer ran into the issue, but it never got solved.

How can I setup logging for renders via ExtendScript scirpting?

 

Thanks,
Arie

Wanted to bump this thread up to see if anybody has a work arounnd for this.   How can we get the render log setup during scripting.  Is there a way, within the AE GUI, to set the default log type for render output, and then when the script runs it will be set like that?
