  • Clip Data Directory: Set the clip directory (default directory is D:\ drive). Multiple directories can also be selected (see Select Multiple Directories)

    Note: This directory is also used for Viz One installations, as the root parameter for the Fsmon and Mediaftp services (see Viz One).

  • Verbosity: Select content of log files, if no selection is made only the default content of the log file will be created:

    • Verbose Output: Enables the most information to be shown in the Viz Engine Console

    • Include Date and Time: Default content of the log file with date and time added

    • OpenGL Error Output (AMD): Default content of the log file with OpenGL Error Output (AMD) added

    • Write GH Connection Log: Default content of the log file with Write GH Connection Log added

  • Post Default Path: Set the default location of Render to Disk clips

  • Startup commands: Enter and save commands that will be executed on startup, but after the initial setup configuration and before the main render loop activates. Examples:

                      FEEDBACK*CLIENT ADD localhost 2001
    
                      FEEDBACK*COMMAND ADD localhost 2001 CLIPOUT
    
                      RENDERER*MAIN_LAYER SET_OBJECT Vizrt_RD/mra/Reference/TC/TC_DISPLAY
    
                      MAIN*DEBUG_CONTROL*RENDERINFO*PERFORMANCE SET 1
                   

Note: Log files will be written to the <viz data folder> directory, normally c:\ProgramData\Vizrt\viz3. This directory is by default hidden in Windows, so to navigate to this directory in Windows Explorer specify the explicit path. For more information see Viz Artist/Engine Log Files.
