Hi Michael I have successfully used a render farm with 3 computers. The first is an Intel quad core, on which I do the editing and trans-coding. It runs on Ubuntu 10.10 the two nodes on the render farm are both dualcore and run on ubuntu 11.04 and 11.10 (one tower and one laptop). All three computers are link with an Ethernet cable and a router. I followed this guide to build the render farm http://www.assistcg.com/component/content/article/67.html In the end it was easer then I tough at fist. And works well. For my 1080p projects I use an intermediate codec such as mjpeg and I trans-code all my video files before importing them into Cinelerra. Batch converting can be donne with ffmpeg and a command line in a form similar to: for i in *.MOV; do ffmpeg -i $i -y -vcodec mjpeg -qscale 1 -s 1920x1080 -pix_fmt yuvj420p -acodec copy ${i%.MOV}-mjpeg.mov; done Félix-A. _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list [email protected] https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
