You are mixing up two things. The real-time raytracing "feature" is just a demo
mode on Windows, and was never meant to be used for anything useful other than
showing how powerful modern processors are, i.e. on a computer at at least
tradeshow booth.

The clockless animation on the other hand is a useful features that allows you
to move the camera in a scene without reparsing. While it was developed for the
demo mode at first, and that is probably where you got the idea to use both
settings together, but really, you just need to disable the real-time rendering
option (which effectively just screws up internal options and their logic to
bypass certain code needed for proper rendering). Then, the clockless animation
shoudl work as documented as long as you have a camera for each frame in your
scene as described in the docs.
