I really like the graphical user interface for editing video, however exporting the project to a DVD format is killing my system resources on my laptop. I would love to be able to leave the heavy lifting on the export to my main desktop and be able to automate the exporting of multiple projects sequentially without my involvement (i.e. I've got twenty or thirty 4 hour projects that I'd like to be able to let run while I'm at the office or sleeping without having to start a new export only when I'm at the house). Also, I haven't been able to get the openshot-render working. I'm having the same problem as moimael above, but I couldn't figure out how to implement his patch to get mine working. (I tried pasting the text into the clip.py file but I'm still getting errors).
Any help on either getting openshot-render working, or some good tips on how to use something else to automate this process at the command line would be greatly appreciated. Mr. Thomas - Bravo on a great product by the way! I had never done any video editing two weeks ago and now I'm breezing through it. Openshot has been excellent. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenShot Bugs, which is subscribed to OpenShot Video Editor. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/729359 Title: openshot-render crash with "AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'settings'" Status in OpenShot Video Editor: Confirmed Bug description: When trying to render a project with openshot-render it crashes with AttributeError. The project.form attribute, which seems to be a reference to a GTK form, is never set when running from openshot- render. I was extremely happy to find the render-tool, as I've spent days trying to figure out a way to do a big batch job. Not so happy when I realised it didn't work. ;) 1) Ubuntu 10.10 (Also on 10.04) 2) Installed from repositories 3) Openshot-version 1.3.0 OUTPUT: $openshot-render proj.osp rendering options: container type: avi video codec: mpeg4 video bitrate: 5000000 audio codec: libmp3lame audio sample rate: 44100 channels: 2 audio bitrate: 128000 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/openshot-render", line 58, in <module> main() File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/openshot/openshot_render.py", line 37, in main bot.render() File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/openshot/classes/cli_render.py", line 239, in render self.current_project.GenerateXML(os.path.join(self.USER_DIR, "sequence.mlt")) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/openshot/classes/project.py", line 258, in GenerateXML self.sequences[0].GenerateXML(dom, tractor1) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/openshot/classes/sequences.py", line 226, in GenerateXML bg_track.GenerateXML(dom, multitrack, fps=fps) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/openshot/classes/track.py", line 110, in GenerateXML current_frame = MyClip.GenerateXML(dom, playlist, current_frame, fps=fps) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/openshot/classes/clip.py", line 466, in GenerateXML use_affine = self.parent.parent.project.form.settings.general["use_affine"] AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'settings' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openshot/+bug/729359/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openshot.bugs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openshot.bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
