I’m currently exporting a 5 hour project. The ETA was about 5h but I think it’s too risky to have it export it all in one go, maybe power cuts out, or windows decides to force restart for an update, stuff happens.
So I’m using markers to export 30 minutes pieces.
But I think it would be helpful to have an option to do this automatically instead of me manually creating individual markers to export the pieces. I’m also not sure if the markers are inclusive on both ends so I might have some duplicated frames (not a really big deal, but the time savings and consistency would be great).
You mean export sections? This is basically just choosing a section to export, it’s in basically softwares like vegas, and work similarly, however it always stays there. Honestly shotcut’s way is much better in my opinion. (Except the export part where you have to change few settings, but you can export directly in Vegas)
I basically mean like instead of exporting the entire timeline in one go, Shotcut can automatically make 5 smaller equal length export jobs so in case something crashes at 99%, not everything is lost.
I don’t see it in any other softwares, but it is like cloud rendering, where you render in chunks, I have seen that in blender.
It is honestly a nice addition, and I also have previously made a local cloud rendering suggestion here. It basically does the chunk rendering over different computers, but also being able to do it on a single computer one by one is good.
