Wanted: An alarm or bell to ring when my render is done.

Subtropic Pixel

Something simple; I'd like to configure a sound to make a small blip or chime whenever a render is completed. Any render, spot or full.

I often do spot renders of various strips of my scene and I do them at high quality, so that I can see better what's going on. Even though I have a fast CPU and GPU, these can can still take a couple minutes. I'd like to multitask and since DS can't multitask while a render is running, I would like to switch to another program (browser, etc) and have DS notify me as soon as the render is complete and ready for my inspection.

For full scene renders, well these can take hours of course, and I might be doing something else with someone else when these finish... ;-) Can I have DS send me an email or call me on my cell phone; or better yet, email or text the rendered image to my smartphone? Yeah, I want it all. After all, it's 2014! :lol:
