Server-Side Rendering with DPE

Purpose

RenderCaeProject.wft workflow-template and EdlRenderConsole application could be used with TableWatcher, to directly render the audio with saving a project from CAE to DigaSystem table.

Server-side rendering can speed-up rendering audio-formats, which are not natively supported by browsers.

Furthermore you can select different output formats.

The workflow-template and console application can be found in “server-side_rendering” directory of CAE delivery.
