Preset Channels in saver *.exr

PostThu Feb 02, 2017 8:58 am

Hi,

how can I preset the channels (*.exr) in the saver node when the comp is created by fusion connect (via resolve studio) ?

Let me explain:

My interchange format between resolve and fusion ist exr.

When I create a comp via fusion connect from resolve, the created saver has all channels turned on.

With all channels turned on, resolve stutters in playing the rendered result of the fusion connect.

I normally use only R, G, B channels, sometimes also alpha and z.
All the others channels I never use.

When I switch all the unused channels off, resolve plays the renderd result in realtime without stuttering.

But ... for every new comp, I have to turn off the unused channels manually. 19 Channels I have to "uncheck" every time.
And ... thats the big disadvantage ... sometimes (or often) I forget to turn off the unused channels in the saver node and I notice it after having rendered, when resolve stutters in playing.

So ... I have to rerender it with the unused channels turned off.
Not very amusing when rendering takes 20 minutes or so. :?


So my question:
How can I preset the exr-channels (on/off) for all new created saver nodes - even when it comes from resolve fusion connect?


Thanks for your help.

as i know, that isnt possible.
But u can use a little script so setup up the saver:

as f.E. py or lua Toolscript:
Code: Select all
tool = comp.ActiveTool

tool.OpenEXRFormat.ZEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.CovEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.ObjIDEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.MatIDEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.UEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.VEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.XNormEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.YNormEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.ZNormEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.XVelEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.YVelEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.XRevVelEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.YRevVelEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.XPosEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.YPosEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.ZPosEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.XDispEnable = "0"
tool.OpenEXRFormat.YDispEnable = "0"

i guess you can set the channels you need and then save the settings as new default settings.

set everything up in the saver node, remove the filename, right click on the node -> "save settings -> save default"

now everytime you create a loader the settings you had in the node will be used
