Great tip. I have added this gem to the manual at the end of the Background Rendering section as seen below. Except $ cat ~/tmp/brender* | ffmpeg -f image2pipe -i - -c:v copy brender.mov did not work for me.
Tip: If you have rendered your whole project with File format set to JPEG and there are no missing numbers in the sequence, you can create a video from that sequence outside of CINELERRA-GG. For example, if using the default output so that your files are named /tmp/brender000000, /tmp/brender000001, ... in a window, you would type: ffmpeg -f image2 -i /tmp/brender0%5d -c:v copy brender.mov which would create the video file brender.mov - be sure to delete existing brender files before creating a new sequence to ensure there are no missing numerical values in the sequence.
