Hi all,

I was wondering why when I send a render to the network via Backburner, the render preview doesn't show up on the server PC? We have an older Windows 7 PC that shows it fine, but all the other Windows 10 machines are only showing the render dialogue box. Can be difficult when I can't see which computers are working in DR and general progress of the render.

Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks!

As far as I remember during command line rendering (Backburner, Corona's DR, etc) the VFB should not be visible because of Autodesk licensing policy, so if you can see it on some machines, that would mean it's some kind of bug. :)

Thanks for the reply maru

Seems odd because Vray displays a preview of the render whilst it is being rendered on the computer running a server
