Use Xbox in a "render-farm" to lower the render-ti

Post by ThirddOracle »

VideoCoPilot, Andrew Kramer, says that you can use for example a Sega system, Nintendo system etc., to connect to your PC and then use it in After Effects to lower the render-times.

How would i do that?

i've got an xbox free to use.

Here is an application that you can use, or what? http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia ... ueue.shtml

How do i connect the xbox to my pc, how can i use it in after effects?

Well firstly you can connect the Xbox to the PC via a router (Xbox's have a standard network port), although you'd probably need a modded Xbox to do anything other than play official games

Other than that, no idea sorry!
