Hey guys,
Unfortunately the movie render queue rendering crashes for me usually after 1-2 hours. Which is problematic especially for overnight renderings.
Now I am trying to submit via command line and create a python script that constantly checks if Unreal.exe cmd is still running and if not picks the latest rendered framenumber and edit the commandline batch to continue from the last successfully rendered frame and resubmit. I think this would generally work but the only issue seems to be that the -MovieStartFrame argument doesn’t seem to work for me in the batch script.
I found a few links that listed that argument. But maybe this is only valid for version 4.26?
Are there similar arguments that I could use with UE 5.1? Or is the python executer script the only way to set start and endframes now? But I guess this would be a bit more complicated in my case if Unreal crashes and I have to edit the startframe with the python executer instead of the batch commandline file.
Many thanks in advance!
