I am using KDENLIVE Version 24.12.0 (stand alone or installed). If I generate the rendering script instead of rendering to a file and I start to run the script from the dialog box it appears to run twice in the job queue. Only one instance completes and the status of the other is “starting…”. I am not sure why it attempts to run two times. After the rendering is complete, I need to ABORT the remaining script and then delete it. The video is rendered perfectly fine.
I saw something like this once before too - I think I’d done something like start a render, realise something wasn’t how I wanted it, aborted it, fixed that, then started the render again and had “two” processes seemingly queued trying to render it simultaneously.
It happens every time I start a rendering script. It’s running two instances. One completes and the other just states “starting…”. I even uninstalled and reinstalled. I’m running Win11. I haven’t tried it on another pc or laptop yet. Do you know of there is a log that might provide more info?
I can’t reproduce that with the 24.12.0 appimage - creating and rendering (even multiple) scripts seems to be doing the right thing with it.
I did see something odd a few days ago with it being a bit indecisive about where to put newly created scripts, but I’ve not found a way to reproduce that glitch yet either.
You could have a look in the directory where the scripts are written and where the rendered file is output to see if anything odd is happening there - and there is a log file written out during rendering, which is normally deleted after successful completion (and is what the progress report is taken from).
If there is a stale log file still present somewhere, that might be confusing this? I have a loose memory of needing to clean up some cruft after the time I saw what I described earlier.
