    Afraid I can't answer your question, but..

    I don't suppose they offer an eval you can test with?
    If so, try it.

    In general, if it works from the command line with 'aerender',
    and doesn't try to interact with the window manager by popping up
    windows, it should work with Rush.

    You can probably also ask them if their tool has been tested
    to work from the aerender command line for the purposes of
    unattended rendering.
