Hello,
I’m having a problem with rendering After Effects projects using Deadline. When the output path contains “#”, the files are not saved correctly. This only happens with movie outputs, and never happen with images sequence outputs.
I’m using Deadline 10.1.23.6 and After Effects 2022 on Windows 10.
Render nodes are using Deadline 10.2.0.10.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue? Thank you in advance for your help.
I have attached the error log below.
