About PreRender and SmartRender ( PF_Cmd_SMART_PRE_RENDER and PF_Cmd_SMART_RENDER)

[smarts19193560]

Hi, everyone!

I'd like to understand about PreRender and SmartRender correctly.

when and what I can use the PreRender and SmartRender for?

Would you explain me with simple example about that?

I can see they on Shifter sample plugin. But I am not sure why it is needed.

Looking forward to hearing back.

Regards,

Anthonie.

PreRender and Smart render are supported only on AE, and are mandatory if

you wish to support 32bpc rendering. they also offer some rendeiring

pipeline improvements.

if your plug-in is to be used in premiere as well, then it must support the

old rendering pipeline with FrameSetup() and "regular" Render().
