  *I'm looking for a way to render Premiere or Edius projects on linux via command line.*
  
  As you may know, there are a lot of render managers like *Deadline*, *Render Pal* or *Smedge* in order to build a custom render farm for all kind of creative applications or 3d renderers.
  
  These render managers mostly support all of the major platforms (Windows, OSX and Linux), but film editing software like Adobe Premiere (along with After Effects) or Edius don't support linux OS at all.
  
  Can I use a render manager to render a Premiere, After Effetcts or even a Edius project on Linux?

  No. Unfortunately Adobe only supports win or osx. Official [forum post](https://forums.adobe.com/thread/569519) about [Deadline:](http://www.thinkboxsoftware.com/deadline/)

  Thus it depends on the **main application**, if you are able to build a render farm on linux. In the case of adobe, the only remaining option is using a [Virtual Machine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_machine) for now.
