--------------------------------------------------------------
This tool allows the user to predict the length of time a large batch render will take to complete. It will consider the different frames within the duration of the batch render and predict the total amount of time it will take to render. It will do this by rendering certain frames within the frame duration. The accuracy vs time to calculate can be altered.
To Use:

- Tested Camera
Enter the name of the camera you want to render from in the field named 'Tested Camera'.
