Please see Slide 1 for proposed draft of Background Renderer (BR) interface

End user should be able to execute a single .mi file in the batch and render the whole or partial list of frames.

Frames range

Number of options here:

1. Process all frames regardless of which .mi was selected
2. or only currently selected (single frame render)
3. or currently selected and all consecutive to the end of the batch

Unprocessed only - only render frames which was not previously rendered (could be figured out from the presence of the corresponding frame images in the export folder)
Stop after.. - Specify how many frames user wants to render (applicable for All Frames and Current Frame + Consecutive). A default "-1" value would be equal to "do not stop"

Another option is to allow multiple frames selection directly form a folder (1,2 and 3 in this case could be grayed out or simply ignored).
Unprocessed only and Stop after should be obeyed. In case of multiple frames selected (and single too for this matter) I would like to have a BR option in Context menu:

See Slide 2


Override options


While I have listed only a few (a bare minimum I would like to see), I would not mind to see here as many as possible - the more the merrier!
Pretty much self-explanatory - Override Scene Options is selected .mi files with specified values.

Log Settings


Proposed by wires
Also self-explanatory. Point to the specified folder where user would want to have logs.
RL could figure out logs naming convention (with name of the batch and date/timestamp to have it unique)
