The Blender Foundation's Flamenco render manager has just received an update that improves the dashboard, logging and worker robustness.

Yesterday Flamenco Manager 2.3 and today Flamenco Worker 2.2 have been released. To use all the new goodness, Flamenco Server should be updated to 2.2 or newer (which is naturally already the case on Blender Cloud).
Most notable new features are:
- Better control over logging, and as a result much less network traffic between Manager and Server.
- It's now possible to render videos from frames using FFmpeg.
- The Manager dashboard has had a major revamp.
- Workers can be automatically blacklisted when they fail to render a job, so that other Workers can take over. For example, a worker with too little memory to render a certain scene won't cause failures.
