Does anyone know is there is a way to extract the length in frames of a R3D file into a script. I want to create a script that then uses redline to render out via Qmaster each frame seperately per clip to each node rather than using each node to render out an entire clip as it works normally.

How about this one?
/usr/sbin/REDline -i /path/to/file.r3d --printMeta 1|grep Total
If you want, i can post script using REDline that searches recursively for R3D files, shows their frame count and can render qt's or dpx.
Btw, i like your idea to spread the renders of single r3d over more nodes, as many render managers do. Unfortunately i have only one MAC :)
