Export Versions

Hello
I prepare différent versions (local version) with different grades for my client to decide a grading direction.
I found no way in the export automatically this grades(V1-V2-V3) in a suffix or prefix.
Do I miss something or do I have to do it mainly?

Thank you
Alex

I think you might have to do it manually. The commercial workflow tab has a checkbox for using version name for folder names, but I'm not sure if that means it outputs multiple versions for each clip.

Worst case would be to duplicate your timelines, and set each timeline to its own version, and render them out in a batch.

Ok
Thank you

For rendering individual clips the user manual says:

Use commercial workflow: (When rendering Individual Clips) Automatically renders every version that’s applied to each clip in the session, except for versions that have been flagged using the “Render Disabled” flag, found in the Version submenu for each clip in the Timeline. This option is typically used when you’ve graded multiple versions of a clip to be used for VFX work, and you want to deliver each grade as a separate media file. This is also used when rendering programs for commercial broadcast where you have two or more versions of a grade for each scene. When using this option, alternate methods of outputting each rendered media file are used, and four additional settings are revealed.
Alternative pass offset: Lets you separate the timecode values written into each version of a clip with an offset. For example, if the default version timecode is 01:00:20:00, and you select a 10 minute offset in the Alternative Pass Offset timecode entry, then the second graded version of that clip will start at 01:10:20:00, the third version will start at 01:20:20:00, and so on until every version is rendered. You can offset the clips by whatever value you like, but the idea is to make it easy for editors and VFX artists to find the versions of each grade. If the clips are shared with a finishing artist, and they know that each alternate pass is 10 minutes apart, then it’s easy for the finisher to change the clip version just by adding 10 minutes to the referenced timecode. To simplify the workflow further, you can put separate source reels in separate folders using the next three options.

Place reels in separate folders: Automatically places all media that’s output using a particular reel name into corresponding folders.

Place clips in separate folders: Automatically places alternate grades of clips into separate folders.

Use version name for folders: Labels each folder with the name of the version when using the Commercial Workflow option.

Commercial workflow sounds like what I am looking for. Could you point me to where that is?
Is it a menu? Is it in preferences? when I log in?
I've looked around and searched online but can't find anything on it.

Also I once was able to render 2 versions (using the split screen option from the color page) as just 1 video. The split screen view is carried over to the deliver page but when I click render only 1 version renders out ignoring the split screen.

I appreciate the help.

Thank you,
