3 years ago Have you enabled Allow Scripts to Write Files and Access Network in After Effects' settings?
https://github.com/LilyStilson/AErender-Launcher-Script/blob/master/README.md
If it's enabled, then can I ask you to provide me some more details in AErender Launcher's Discord server?
Also, this is an issue with AErender Launcher Script, not with AErender Launcher and it should been reported in a specific repository.

3 years ago Hello Alice
Firstly, let me say I love this little tool, I am experimenting a lot, but i found it very promising
Please accept my apologies, I was under the impression the preferences were inherited from my previous versions of AE, but in this case, Allow Scripts to Write Files and Access Network was not on - and turning it on made the trick!
Far from telling you how to do your job, I would like to suggest adding this check in your script: app.preferences.getPrefAsLong("Main Pref Section", "Pref_SCRIPTING_FILE_NETWORK_SECURITY") I am a developer myself (this is my page on aescripts.com https://aescripts.com/authors/a-b/braindot-design/) and I found that this check saves me a lot of Support Tickets
While we are here, I would like to flash one more thing: the "Help" section is actually not displaying on my machine - any suggestions?
And finally, I have installed ffmpeg inside the AErender Launcher directory

Any more info about using AErendered Launcher with FFMPEG would be very much appreciated
Many thanks for your hard work with this tool
Best regards Dani

3 years ago Thanks for the suggestion, I will definitely add this to Script :)
Help section not working currently due to the fact that I haven't written any of it yet and after the future Launcher's version v0.9.0-beta, the workflow will significantly change and the previous help files would be obsolete, so now I'm working on this update, after which I will dedicate all my time to make a proper documentation.
About FFMPEG... Launcher can only detect if there is a folder with name that contains "ffmpeg" and checks if in /ffmpeg/bin exists any FFMPEG executables. But that's it, currently I just postponed all the FFMPEG implementation until v0.9.0-beta. Only FFMPEG detection is working currently.
I know it's a bit confusing, but that's gonna be changed soon :)
PS. Your pictures are broken
What happened? In After Effect 2021 (CC 18), the panel where you feed the exe file does not close after pressing OK.
To Reproduce 1) From After Effects, open AErenderer Launcher Script 2) Press the Settings tab 3) Press the "..." button 4) navigate to the file called "AErender Launcher BETA.exe" and 5) Press OK - but nothing happens
...
Expected behavior When I feed the exe file, the file should be accepted
Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Additional context The panel works well in AE 2020
