Hi all,
Apologies if this is an RTFM question - I have RTFMed and Googled without any luck.
I'm using Blender just for the VSE - to edit together some screen captures I did for a demo for work, basically I want to use blender instead of Camtasia (it's expensive and I don't like the way it works anyway).
I've edited down the video and audio so now my demo plays how I want it. I need to be able to render the sequence into multiple different formats, so I'd like to use the command line so I can render into multiple formats with one script.
The problem I'm having, is that when I try to render my project, it's rendering the default 3D project (the lit cube), rather than my video/audio clips on the VSE timeline.
Is there some way to render the sequence, instead of the 3D scene?
Cheers,
KEv.

Thanks for the link. Checking back on what I originally posted though, my explanation was a bit off.
What I'm trying to do is duplicate what I can do with the GUI (which I already have working, as explained in the documentation) but reproduce it from the command line.
When I run my project from the command line, for example:
blender -b myproject.blend -a -o //output -x 1 -F AVIRAW
It renders the cube, and not my VSE timeline.
I'm sure I'm missing an option, but "blender -h" doesn't mention anything about VSE.
Is there an extra option I need to render my VSE timeline instead of the 3D proiject? Like I said before, I've checked the documentation and googled a lot without any success.
Cheers,
KEv.
