Batch processing with RedLine

[Max Zug]

Hi all,

I have a quick question. I am able to encode clips in the Terminal but I am curious what I need to type in so I can set up a queue for several clips. For example, here are two separate commands...one to encode an R3D to HD QT and another to encode the same R3D to a SD Tiff sequence

REDline -i /Users/Graphics/Desktop/A001_C105_080521.RDC/A001_C105_080521_001.R3D -o /Users/Graphics/Desktop/redcinetest/A001_C105_080521.mov -w 11 -R 1 --filter 4 --fit 2 --QTcodec 7 --resizeX 1920 --resizeY 1080 -I 320 -B 3.000000 -C 0.000000 -x 0.918279 -k 3384 -T 1.000000 -t 0.815028 -r 0.500000 -g 0.500000 -b 0.500000 -X 0.500000 --blackX 0.000000 --blackY 0.000000 --toeX 26.174498 --toeY 16.428572 --midX 50.000000 --midY 50.000000 --kneeX 73.825500 --kneeY 80.714287 --whiteX 100.000000 --whiteY 100.000000 --black 0.000000 --white 100.000000 -G 1 -d 1 -D 0 --NR 0 -c 9 -s 0 -e 595 -V 0

REDline -i /Users/Graphics/Desktop/A001_C105_080521.RDC/A001_C105_080521_001.R3D -o /Users/Graphics/Desktop/redcinetest/A001_C105_080521.tiff -w 1 -R 1 --filter 4 --fit 2 --QTcodec 7 --resizeX 720 --resizeY 486 -I 320 -B 3.000000 -C 0.000000 -x 0.918279 -k 3384 -T 1.000000 -t 0.815028 -r 0.500000 -g 0.500000 -b 0.500000 -X 0.500000 --blackX 0.000000 --blackY 0.000000 --toeX 26.174498 --toeY 16.428572 --midX 50.000000 --midY 50.000000 --kneeX 73.825500 --kneeY 80.714287 --whiteX 100.000000 --whiteY 100.000000 --black 0.000000 --white 100.000000 -G 1 -d 1 -D 0 --NR 0 -c 9 -s 0 -e 595 -V 0

Is there some syntax that I need to type in to get it to continue rendering out ? Because I tried the above and it seemed to stop at the second command and I had to hit enter for it to start up.

Cheers,
Bill

open an empty textfile. put all comands in the file with minimum a linebreak after every. save the file like "script.txt" to the desktop. then open the terminal and put in the command: source /pathtoyourTXTfile.

Succinctly put, Rainer, how about this: Can I send a script to my QMaster cluster so that I don't have to submit each job from RedAlert? I can't figure out the correct syntax, let alone where to submit the command...

I haven't really worked with Qmaster. So have no practice yet... but will look...
