Hi
My name is Cédric Duriau and I am the developer of the Fusion version of Cryptomatte.
Andrew Hazelden, who contributes to the project, reported the issue that Cryptomatte currently does not work in Resolve. He pointed out the fact that the input node in Resolve is a MediaIn node, unlike the Loader node in Fusion. I quickly found out that within the Metadata of the Fusion Loader, I can retrieve the path of the input EXR as following:
- Code: Select all
input_image.Metadata["Filename"]
This key is not present in the metadata of the image coming from a MediaIn node.
Considering the code is contained inside the Cryptomatte node, I cannot just ask for the MediaIn "MEDIA_NAME" information. Unless there is a way I am not aware of. So here lays my question, how can I get the file path of the input image, not having the input node object?
Looking at the calendar, SIGGRAPH 2018 isn't so far away, but looks far enough to find a solution to this quite simple problem. I would really appreciate it, and I think we all can benefit from a Resolve Cryptomatte, if this issue could be resolved by then. If you understand my point of view.
Cheers
Cédric
