allowedAddress(own, other)

source code

Check whether two ip addresses are local to eachother.

Parameters:

own - ip-address as dotted quad, i.e. 1.2.3.4
other - ip-address as dotted quad, i.e. 1.2.3.4
The 'other' address is considered local (and therefor allowed) to the 'own'address if it is:
- a localhost address 127.*.*.*
- in a local C-address range and shares the first 3 quads
- in a local B-address range and shares the first 2 quads
- in a local A-address range and shares the first quad

saveblend()

source code

Save the current .blend file as a temporary file.

Returns:: (scn,context,scenename,name)
scn is the current scene object context the current rendering context scenename the name of the current scene name the name of the temporary file

Warning: sideeffect: sets displaymode to 0 (=rendering in imagewindow) to prevent rendering window popping up

displaystats(stats, n, starttime, endtime)

source code

Print rendertime statistics for the various remote and local threads.

Parameters:

stats (Queue.queue) - a queue of tuples (frames, seconds, errorframes)
n (int) - total number of frames to render
starttime (float) - start time in seconds since epoch
endtime (float) - end time in second since epoch

Returns:

per frame filenames sorted by framenumber

collate(imagelist, outputfilename)

source code

Collate a list of images to a single image.

Parameters:

imagelist - list of filenames
outputfilename - file to write collated images to
