I want to select “Render All Clips” in Deliver page (Resolve 9)

[Dwaine Maggart]

Select all will select all the clips in the timeline for rendering. You can verify that by looking at the In and Out timecode values.

Is this a new convention that when all are selected there is no orange/brown bar?
Does it mean that all are selected for render by default?

[Michael Holmes]

Thanks for the quick response, Dwaine.

Then the manual is incorrect, and I am doing it correctly?

[Dwaine Maggart]

Yes, the manual in incorrect. Replace Render All with Select All.

Yes, when you select all, the clips do not all turn orange.

Dwaine,
Well, I finally got back to this project, and the “Select All’ didn’t work for me. It rendered one clip twice, for the two versions, but only the one clip (which was the clip highlighted in the Thumbnail Timeline).

I then tried highlighting all the clips in the Thumbnail Timeline using Shift-Click, but it didn’t work……..only one clip would highlight at a time (bright orange edging).

I then tried Mark In and Mark Out, and I can’t seem to get this right either. I tried moving a mark to the start of the first clip and selecting mark In, then went to the end of the last clip and selected Mark Out. This didn’t work either…………….somehow it decided to render only two clips: the 2nd and the 13th clips, out of 46 total. I assume I somehow accidentally told it to do this. (??)

How do I now remove the Mark In/Out marks, and try again?

What am I doing wrong?
……………….

Also, I am confused by the naming system.
I selected “Use Source Filename” and “Render each Clip with a Unique Filename”, using commercial workflow. What I got is this:

For the 2nd clip it rendered above, it was placed in a folder with the name:
00007800_00018621.
What is this number? How is it useful to me?

Inside this folder was this rendered clip:
V1-0002_00001(fcp1).mov

Also inside the folder was another folder entitled “Version 2” (I inadvertently selected “Place clips in separate folders”…..I will un-check this). Inside this folder was this rendered clip:
V1-0002_00001(fcp1).mov

The name is identical to Version 1 of this clip. Why does it not give Version 2 a unique ID so I can recognize it as Version 2? Will the XML data give the versions different names in FCP X?

[Michael Holmes]

Nobody can help on this?
Forget the numbering system questions, just please help on telling me how to use Mark In/Out to get all the clips rendered at once.

Thanks!

Right click on the time line and select “Render All’. I’d recommend checking out the new manual think you’ll find it answers many questing and is quite useful.

Juan,
I have spent much time in the manual.

Please look at previous posts, you can’t select “Render all” in 9, unless you have found the secret method………..if so, please explain it to me.

I just want to use Mark In/Out, which should work. I just can’t figure out how to (1) remove all markers I have inadvertently placed and (2) place new In and Out markers so I select all of the clips for rendering.

[Michael Holmes]

Here is exactly what is happening:

(1) In Deliver page, I highlighted 1st clip (In Thumbnail Timeline), right clicked, chose Mark In. I then highlighted last clip, right clicked, chose Mark Out.
The In/Out showed the correct numbers:
In: 00:00:00:00
Out: 03:19:28:03
Duration: 03:44:52:08 (some multiple versions).

When I clicked Render, the numbers jumped to:
In: 00:57:33:12
Out: 01:02:54:21
Duration: 00:05:21:10
And it started rendering the 13th clip only. It completed this and stopped.

(2) So, I tried a 2nd approach. I added the job again, right clicked in the Mini Timeline, and chose Select All.
When I hit Render, it said this has already been rendered, do you want to render again? I said yes, and times changed and it again rendered the 13th clip only.

(3) So I tried a 3rd approach. I highlighted the 2nd clip, right clicked and selected Render This Clip. Times changed to:
In: 00:00:06:22
Out: 00:07:37:19
When I hit Render, times changed again and it again rendered the 13th clip only.

So, something is telling it to render the 13th clip only, regardless of what I select.
I don’t see anything on the left side of the page where I could be causing this.

Can someone please advise what I can do??

Sounds like you’ve got a job in your queue with in/out set. I would encourage you to check out the new manual it’s pretty helpful on this.

If you use the X in the job queue to clear out that job first. Then add a new job with the appropriate settings. Make sure you set all of the job tasks the way you want, and then add the job to queue, so that there is only one job in the queue, it should work.
