Why we like it

Earns its place in the superhive library for folding multi-step platform export setup into one-click presets applied inside Blender's Output Properties.

What is Multi-Platform Render Output Manager?

Multi-Platform Render Output Manager is a Blender add-on that applies platform-specific export presets for YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram directly in the Output Properties panel. With a single click it sets the resolution, applies the correct FPS, configures H.264 (FFMPEG) encoding, and optimizes bitrate and GOP size for each platform.

Layouts cover horizontal (16:9), vertical (9:16), and square (1:1) formats, with YouTube defaulting to 16:9 and TikTok and Instagram to 9:16. Smart file naming lets you set a custom output folder and file prefix, and optionally include the scene name, a timestamp, and the platform and aspect in the filename. You can preview the final filename before rendering, and a one-click Apply + Render Animation option starts the render.

The add-on runs in Blender 3.6 and later and is released under the GPL v3 license.

Frequently asked questions

What Blender versions does Multi-Platform Render Output Manager support?

Multi-Platform Render Output Manager supports Blender 3.6 and later, with listed compatibility running up to the 5.0 range. It works inside Blender's Output Properties panel, so its export presets sit alongside the render settings you already use. The add-on is released under the GPL v3 license. If you run an older Blender build below 3.6, check the developer's page before installing to confirm the add-on will load correctly on your setup.

Which social platforms does Multi-Platform Render Output Manager create presets for?

Multi-Platform Render Output Manager includes presets for YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. YouTube defaults to a 16:9 layout, while TikTok and Instagram default to 9:16. Each preset applies platform-specific resolution, sets the correct FPS automatically, configures H.264 (FFMPEG) encoding, and optimizes bitrate and GOP size for that platform. You apply everything from Blender's Output Properties with a single click, and a one-click Apply + Render Animation option starts the render once the preset is set.

Can Multi-Platform Render Output Manager export vertical and square video?

Multi-Platform Render Output Manager supports horizontal (16:9), vertical (9:16), and square (1:1) layout options, so you can match the orientation each platform expects. Alongside the layout choices, it handles smart file naming: you can set a custom output folder and file prefix, and optionally include the scene name, a timestamp, and the platform and aspect in the filename. It also lets you preview the final filename before you render, so you can confirm the output name first.

Is Multi-Platform Render Output Manager free to use?

Multi-Platform Render Output Manager is listed as free here in the catalog, and it is distributed under the GPL v3 license. Licensing terms and any pricing can change over time, so check the developer's page for the current details before you download. The add-on applies its presets from Blender's Output Properties panel, so once it is set up you work with it directly inside your usual render settings.
