I get this bug too and can't get the patch working.  But I do like
opwnshot-render.

Maybe OpenShot-render can just do the export to XML and then call melt
internally instead of doing so much itself.  But openshot-render is
important because it is the batch functionality of openshot and needs to
be maintained in my opinion because openshot relying on users to
directly understand and use melt makes it a non-ubiquitous product or a
nebulous mass of video editing softwares.  Currently Openshot is a
program that allows complete control of it's functionality from within
it's own install and when you add things like blender, they are just
used in the background.  That a more wholesome include of functionality.

And exporting the XML file to go through melt is less useful to because
you have to go into openshot to pull out a projects XML and that
requirement breaks large scale nightly batch operations that people have
chroned or scripted out.

I think it would be cool to have a project property some how like "add
to nightly batch", with some simple profile editors that could go along
with the batch entry, and a batch menu that can allow for nightly
timing.

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
