Playblast
Q: How does this addon work under the hood?
A: This addon uses the native options of "Viewport OpenGL Render Animation". But it allows keeping the playblast settings separate from the final render settings.
Q: The settings will be saved or do I have to configure them in each file?
A: Don't worry. The settings will be saved with the version of blender you are using. Once you configure it, you only have to touch one button to launch the playblast.
