Need Separate Render Queue like Adobe Media Encoder

You should create a render software like Adobe Media Encoder so that DaVinci can render the time line of Resolve and work separately on DaVinci and the render will run in the background!! So that the editor can work on another project by applying render.

thank you

A good feature request. You'll get more traction by posting it in the feature request forum. In fact, I'll bet this feature has already been requested over there. Give it a +1.

I hate background renders. The render either takes extremely long or the foreground tasks are barely usable.

$.02

Surprised this wouldn't be in Resolve already, it's such a good suggestion.

resolve already has remote rendering functionality

Good point.

And that's the better solution for the reason given by Dom.

It was a good idea once upon a time when everything ran on the CPU and you had cores to spare.

Resolve's pipeline goes through the GPU - always. If you think people are having GPU memory issues now... Double that.

Or make everything run at half the speed. It's not very appealing.

As theory, in media encoder, we can send a project to be rendered from Premiero Pro/After Effect. So we can do another project while rendering in background.
But, in practical, i never can do this, when media encoder star rendering, 100% GPU and CPU used by media encoder, so i can not do anohther edit in premiere.
May be becouse my weak GPU/CPU.

We do this by paying for multiple seats of Resolve in one room, so we can color & edit on one machine, conform on another, and render on a third. They each have access to the same Project Database, and there's one networked drive that each system can connect to.

I can tell you that Baselight has "background rendering" as an option, but what they don't tell you is when you use it, it brings the system to its knees, to the point where you can't do any color work. So I think for a lot of reasons, using a separate system is a much more workable way to accomplish what you're trying to do. Either that, or just be patient and render everything overnight, after you go to sleep.

"Remote" Rendering? How would that work? I start a render on my Mac Pro, but I edit on my MacBook? Might be kinda cool... especially if I use my 11inch machines more often.

read the manual. search for remote rendering.

Sounds nice but doesn't translate into actual productivity.

Your CPU, GPU and drive with the media will be busy rendering your project, you will not be able to properly edit while that render job happens.

Better take a break and come back fresh and have better efficiency when the rendering ends

remote rendering happens on a different machine. the only thing that is busy on your end while rendering are the harddrives, and you usually don't even notice it at all.
we use it all the time

I think Musetoiu was referencing the idea of the OP, Sven. Having a separate app to render on the same machine.

Setup a second computer and use it as a remote render machine.

In pro world background rendering should be done on a separate "render nodes", like Flame does.
Flame goes step further and if you play something in your active project all background tasks (on current machine) are suspended, so playback is solid. This is a nice feature.
Background rendering on the same machine is always going to be a compromise. Sometimes it may work/be useful, but not always.
