Hey, I am looking into other options.
I set up a test project with a video of 200 seconds and see how I can ease the pain on this issue. The images are being extracted, then I render the buttons etc and store those as additional files. One quick and simple fix could be to simply delete the extracted frames I already rendered. This would free some temp space while rendering. One thing I currently do not see is the requirement of RAM ( but then I am still in the render stage ) Bottom line I have the tool ( qrender ) and could hanle all in one instead of using all those command line tools. I'll post another mail about my findings later. Thanks for pointing this one out.
