Batch File Renderer
Batch File Renderer – What's New in v1.3
This update introduces critical workflow improvements for artists handling multi-file Blender projects:
Key Changes from Previous Version:
-
Frame Range Visibility & Control
Now automatically detects and displays each file's frame range (start/end) upon import
Allows manual override of detected frames for per-file customization
-
Smart Analysis System
Background scanning of files to extract scene settings without opening them
"Refresh" button to re-analyze frame ranges if source files are modified
-
Enhanced UI Feedback
Clear visual distinction between auto-detected vs manually set frame ranges
Progress indicators during analysis/rendering
Why It Matters:
Fixes the "blind rendering" problem of v1 where users couldn’t verify/change frames
Enables per-file adjustments for projects with varying animation lengths
Maintains automation while adding precision control
Example Workflow:
Add 10
.blendfiles → auto-detects their frame rangesSpot a file needing tweaks? Edit its start/end frames directly
Re-analyze if the source file changes → render with confidence
*(Compatible with Blender 2.80+. Optimized for animation pipelines.)*
This update transforms the addon from a basic sequencer to a frame-aware production tool.
