How come in Render Options, when I choose Render to Disk, the Use HyperVue button becomes disabled? I was under the impression you need to render to disk for large images. According to the manual, HyperVue should be available for either render to screen or render to disk.

Any help is appreciated :-)

HyperVue renders stills to screen.

Are there any significant problems with rendering a large 3K still to the screen?

Just wondering....

Humm, sorry what size is 3k?

OOPS sorry, 3K is 3000 pixels x ~2000 pixels.

You shouldn't have any problem rendering this to screen with Hypervue.

...if you have 2GB ram.  I frequently ran into OOM errors until I got my 2nd GB stick of RAM installed.

Great...I do have 2 Gb...Interesting though the other computers I'm networked to have only 1Gb, and one of them is a 1.66GHz Core Duo laptop, which renders faster than my 3.+ GHz 2Gb Desktop.

Well, I've found that the comp running the file is slower than usual in it's rendering performance and doesn't escape the ram hit like the networked comps do.

Ryan, it's normal I think that the comp running the hypervue manager renders slowlier than ususal. This is why it's best to use the network for big and/or high quality renders. Otherwise, it would be slowlier than rendering on a single machine.
