Scheduling Fileout Renders - Qmaster?
by Mivlet on Nov 16, 2007 at 12:25:53 pm

Hi there,

I have been trying to find a way of rendering multiple FileOut nodes of different durations. I have been able to render a few simlutaneously (and sequentially) but am having the hinderance of unnecessary black frames being rendered to fill in the excess space which follows the clips of a shorter duration.

Is there a simple way to set individual clip lengths in the "time range" box or do I have to resort to Qmaster? I am confused since the FileOut node doesn't seem to recognise each clip individually and so all I'm able to do is set a global duration for all renders.

If Qmaster is the solution - do I have to copy each clips tree and Fileout node into another Script since it seems only to schedule scripts rather than nodes/clips.

THANKS!

The answer is in an old thread, and it's gold:

I think that will be what you want, ...the only other way is to go the Qmaster way, but as you say you'd have to make duplicate copies of your tree's deleting the other file-out nodes.

Goodluck!
