That helps a ton! I appreciate the prompt responses.
One last issue - When using DR, I end up getting 3 images for each frame. It appears to be one of materials applied, one gray scale and one silhouette. Is this a setting that I can change? I'm only needing the image with the materials applied.

Does DR have the ability to create a work schedule for floating nodes?
Backburner allows us to block out our work day, queue jobs during the day and allow them to run overnight. Our main focus is rendering out 24 angles of our product, then sequencing them to be a 360 degree interactive feature.
If we decide to use Backburner in the future, do we just submit to network rendering like we did in the past and run server.exe? Or do we have additional steps that need to be taken?

AH! Mystery Solved. I've gotten used to backburner for the past 5 years where jobs rendered individual frames unless settings were changed to split a job. Thanks for the help.

Hello,
I'm new(ish) to Corona. My company has used iRay for the past 5 years. We decided to switch to Corona this year.
We were using a render farm in the past and I'm trying to get that up and running with Corona. I've only started testing this on 2 floating nodes and my main workstation. I have my workstation set up and DR is enabled. DRserver.exe is active on both of my nodes. After "Search LAN", the nodes show up in the render setup window. I have my image output saved to a network drive that all have access to. The nodes are connecting to the workstation and starting the render process.
Once my workstation completes one of the frames, it seems like it starts processing the next frame that was submitted to a floating node. The job that the node was processing does not show up in the network folder until my workstation finishes processing it.
I've attached a sample image to show the simplicity of the scene. Resolution is set to 6600 x 5500.
I've read many of the articles and can't seem to find a solution.
My only guess would be the nodes timing out, but they are only running for 7-10 minutes.
