I really like the graphical user interface for editing video, however
exporting the project to a DVD format is killing my system resources on
my laptop.  I would love to be able to leave the heavy lifting on the
export to my main desktop and be able to automate the exporting of
multiple projects sequentially without my involvement  (i.e. I've got
twenty or thirty 4 hour projects that I'd like to be able to let run
while I'm at the office or sleeping without having to start a new export
only when I'm at the house).  Also, I haven't been able to get the
openshot-render working.  I'm having the same problem as moimael above,
but I couldn't figure out how to implement his patch to get mine
working. (I tried pasting the text into the clip.py file but I'm still
getting errors).

Any help on either getting openshot-render working, or some good tips on
how to use something else to automate this process at the command line
would be greatly appreciated.

Mr. Thomas - Bravo on a great product by the way!  I had never done any
video editing two weeks ago and now I'm breezing through it.  Openshot
has been excellent.

Title:
  openshot-render crash with "AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no
  attribute 'settings'"

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When trying to render a project with openshot-render it crashes with
  AttributeError. The project.form attribute, which seems to be a
  reference to a GTK form, is never set when running from openshot-
  render.

  I was extremely happy to find the render-tool, as I've spent days
  trying to figure out a way to do a big batch job. Not so happy when I
  realised it didn't work. ;)

  1) Ubuntu 10.10 (Also on 10.04)
  2) Installed from repositories
  3) Openshot-version 1.3.0

  
  OUTPUT:

  $openshot-render proj.osp

  video bitrate: 5000000

  audio codec: libmp3lame
