After Effects Job Submission

Once installed there are a few things that need to be done before using the script.

Run After Effects and open the General Preferences.

With a scene loaded in After Effects, select "Add to Render Queue" from the "Composition" Menu. 

Set up the Render Queue with the parameters and settings that you want for the project.

Save the scene file so that the render queue is there in it when the file is picked up on a Worker.

This is the Render Queue area

Now select "QubeAppFinder_Submit_RenderQueue.jsx" from the "File -> Scripts" menu.

 If this is the first time you have done this, you will be presented with a dialog box that wants to know where to find the Wrangler View executable.

 Fill this out appropriately:

• Mac: /Applications/pfx/qube/qube.app
• PC: C:\Program Files (x86)\pfx\qube\bin\qube.exe

This will present a pre filled submission UI.

Ensure sections marked in red have the correct details.

Stuff that should be set:

Execution: Chunks with n frames, because loading the app takes way longer than generating a frame

Retry Frame Instance: 3 or 5

Retry Work Delay: 5 or 10 seconds

Make sure CS version (or CC thing) is correct.
