Render Queue Feature Request

PostTue Nov 14, 2017 9:41 pm

Adding new items to the queue should not 'deselect' items already added. Deselection should only occur after rendering that item is finished.

1. Add a timeline to the queue.
2. Add another timeline.
3. Add a third timeline.
4. Hit Start Render.
5. Crap, only the third timeline got rendered.
6. Re-Select the first two timelines.
7. Hit Start Render again.

Let's knock out steps 5, 6 and 7, eh?

It would also be great that remote render submissions we're rendered in order of submission instead of last submitted. If you have 8 artist stations submitting to 2 render nodes, the last person to submit always gets priority.

That would kind of negate the point of Step 4 (and hence Steps 1, 2 and 3 as well) don't you think?

Just to mention that "deselect all" the job or "select all" the job in the render queue make resolve rendering all of them ....
It's not perfect, but it reduces the steps, isn't ? :-)

The problem with a Select All option is that previous exports might still be in the list.

I believe the correct behavior here should be for all queued exports to remain 'selected' until they're exported. Only then should they be automatically deselected.

You're right

Completely agree with this. I've been using Resolve for a couple of years, and always assumed this featured (queued rendering) was simply broken.

It's totally non intuitive that you'd have to manually select things that are in a 'render queue' in order for the queue to actually render. Please fix this UI issue.
