@spikeyxxx I think that is the software @theluthier said was giving him trouble on Linux, he had to buy a paid alternative which works fine. Syncing is taking forever probably because there are at least 5GB of EXR files at this point on the shared folder on Google Drive, so it’s syncing all those files first and that can take a while. After it is done syncing (we are on frame 400 at the moment) if you hit render, your computer would start rendering frame 401.
