    can each frame rendering job be distributed over network? i want my animation be rendered in one continous chunk. now i am getting job halved 1-100f and 101-200f. it seems to render each frame on one machine only. splitting job in half like this can be done manually, really.

    I think buckets are only distributed for single-frame renders. But why would you want to do for all frames? Distributing buckets would increase network traffic and thus slow down your render.

    most of the time takes not drawing, but preparing, building tree… which are probably not multithreaded anyway. i want to see frames appear quicker. i want see first 20,30,40 frames of my animation quick. i dont want the other half 120,121,122.. is that the way to distribute odd/even frames?

    if this could be the wishlist… if i cannot have single frame distributed, i want odd/even option 1,3,5… and 2,4,6 frame on the other machine to have rendering in one chunk from the begining.
