Render on multiple machines

Wed Jul 06, 2016 7:10 pm
Hi.

Currently using Kdenlive 0.9.6. Yes I know it is old, but it works.

Want to render on several machines as rendering times on my computer is long.

I am doing my videos on a 2.1 Ghz dual core something in Ubuntu. Render times on the other hand is pretty long. About 3 hours on a 20 min video.

So I want to spread the load on two other machines I have sitting. Dual Core in the same speed range. I know that the filepath are absolute so I plan to use rsync to make exact local copies of the directory structure and files on each machine. Then use ssh to run the command on each machine.

Seen older posts mentioned that it is possible with an overlap of 10 frames on each script. I have looked into the make script thing in the render menu and the contents make sense. Setting the in and out points accordingly. Splitting the video in several parts.

Then the tricky part which I have not figured out. Joining the three clips to make it seamless.

Can someone tell me the exact command of how to do this? I am sure there are several methods, but something that works. I have looked into "cat" a little bit, but would only listing up the videos using "cat" make it seamless? What is the trick?

I have seen posts mentioned the use of "cat", but not the command to make it happen.

Sincerely Andre Sveen
