Choose between Local Queue or TRA. Local Queue is our local render queue manager; all renders are done on the local machine. Tractor is our render farm job queue and work distribution system. This choice requires that you have Tractor installed on your local machine, as well as a Tractor Engine and Tractor blades installed on your local network.

Frame Chunking

Only applies to Blender Batch style. This determines how many frames each Blender Batch process will render. For example, if you are rendering a 10 frame sequence, a frame chunk setting of 1 will produce 10 separate blender batch processes, whereas a frame chunking setting of 5, will produce only 2 blender batch processes, with each rendering 5 frames. 

Use Blender Compositor

Only applies to Blender Batch style. If this is turned on, all RenderMan Displays options will be ignored and only the final composited image will be saved. If off, then any compositing operators in the Compositor is ignored. If the composited image needs to be denoised, turn on the Optix denoise option.

Blender Batch AOVs

Only applies to Blender Batch style, and Use Blender Compositor is on. If enabled, AOVs will also be written to disk (if using RenderMan Displays, AOVs will be written out as EXR's).

Enable Recovery

Only applies when Spool Style is set to RIB. Whether you want to attempt a recovery render. For more information see see Checkpointing and Recovery. The checkpoint setting can be found under the Sampling panel.
