[Cin] My current hack on batchrender I/O points .....

[Rafa Mar Multimedia en Gnu\Linux]

Yes, I knew about this part of the manual, but I see it as a bug or an
error that the render takes into account the insertion point (position of
the playhead).

What I mean is an improvement that on the one hand solves the playhead.
That we do not have to make sure that this is at the beginning to make a
render, this is really a mistake (bug).

And in a project to be able to define several non-consecutive sections in
the same batch render.

The process would be.
1 New
2 Use current EDL
3 (New button) (Set in out points) or (in out reference)
The fourth point would be to indicate the name and output format.

This collects the time code information of the current position of the
entry exit points.
If we move these points to another section and repeat the three previous
steps, new, will always create a new line with ALL (project), this will
render the whole project, but if we have moved the marks in out, and press
the "in out reference" button again, ALL will be replaced by the stretch of
timecode marked by in out points and export only the fragment. When
executing it, Batch will export all the defined sections while we can be
having a snack.

I am aware that giving ideas is the easy part of the job... if I had the
knowledge that you have in C programming it would help you, but in this
sense I am stupid and useless... I can only try, sorry. Don't feel
obligated to do this either. The only thing I see as an error is that the
render takes into account the the position of the play head (the Insert
Point position as the manual calls it)

Imagine that you have to do a batch render of 20 projects... and you have
to open one by one to ensure that the playhead is at the beginning... it is
not very logical... a batch is made with the editor without any project
loaded, most of the time, and this detail of the play head wastes a lot of
time without any logic that justifies it, being able to use the entry and
exit points (in out points) for it

My sincere thanks.
