_SimpleCMD_QubeFrameRangeWithChunk

Most jobs require a frame range in which to execute on the worker's you can set this range in a few different ways :

"1-100" will just render the range between 1 and 100

"1-100x3" will render the range 1 to 100, every third frame, so 1, 4, 7, etc.

"1,3,7,10" will only render the selected frames 1,3,7,10

When submitting a job to the farm it may be more efficient to "chunk" your job. This means that when the job is sent to the worker it tells the worker to render X consecutive frames before requesting more work.

The drop down options are below:

"Individual frames" this tells the worker to render 1 frame at a time

"Chunks with n frames" this tells the worker to render consecutively the number of frames specified in the parallel spinner

"Split into n partitions" this tells the worker to render consecutively the total frames in the range divided by the number in the parallel spinner

Examples:

range 1-100 with "individual frames" set will render 1 frame at a time

range 1-100 with "Chunks with n frames" and the spinner set to 10 will send 10 frames to each worker

range 1-100 with "Split into n partitions" and the spinner set to 4 will send 25 frames to each worker

You can set the order in which your frames are rendered. The drop down options are:

"Ascending" this will render the frames counting upwards from your start frame

"Decending" this will render the frames counting backwards from your end frame
