Can a Compressor 3.5 droplet work with Virtual Cluster?
Hello All,
I’m doing a lot of work with the 5Dmk2 and transcoding with droplets is great. However, whenever I submit a droplet to use the virtual cluster I’ve set up, Batch Monitor shows it as ‘Waiting’.
I’ve ‘waited’ for up to an hour with no results. Tried it with a batch of one video, three videos and my ideal of 16 videos. Same result. Also tried with a virtual cluster of 4 and 6 nodes. Nuthin’.
Is anyone having success at using a droplet with their virtual cluster?
Mac Pro 2×2.8 Quad Core, 16GB RAM, OS 10.6.2… what else?
Thanks!

To bring this thread 3 years forward… 🙂
Same thing is still happening using Compressor 4.0.7.
It clearly seems to be a bug as I did an A-B test without restarting any machines (host or clients) in the cluster and tried to submit 8 files by dragging them to the droplet.
Within a few seconds the batch appeared as expected in Share Monitor, but was stuck “waiting.”
After a few minutes I manually created a batch in Compressor using the exact same 8 files, with same settings and same destination and submitted it directly from Compressor.
After a few seconds that batch also appeared in Share Monitor and immediately started processing correctly.
After it was finished successfully I then thought that maybe the “waiting” batch would then start up since things had gotten started in the queue.
No such luck – it just continued to hang with the “waiting” status.
