Was wondering if there’s a way to export or render multiple scenes or layers
to multiple mp4 videos? For instance, I have some random objects animated on
layer 1 and some other random objects animated on layer 2. Is there a way to
render each out to their own individual mp4 in one go? Or do I need to render
each layer out separately?
Yes, could render multiple scenes from the command line. Layers depend on the used render engine, but also possible, output could happen in different locations by using file output node in the compositor.
Don’t render directly to a video file but to a image sequence. The sequence can continue rendering where it left if something goes wrong, and it can be compiled to a video file very easily and fast. It can also be re-encoded without losing quality.
