I was wondering already if it maybe was an option to have a way
of "reload triggering" in case direct piping is not possible
in certain applications. I take it RV supports direct streaming
of image data via pipes? Or was i over-interpreting there?

It would certainly be a plugin-based system, similar to the
current one, so it would be straight-forward enough to write new
plugins for different playback applications, and any of this
would be do-able, provided the application supports piping images
once it's already open.

Hey Hugh,
without going too much into detail (lack the time right now, will
try later today) I love the idea. Even tho we are not on RV i
would still love
to see something like that!

*Betreff:* [Nuke-python] Flipbooking
Hi all,
I was looking, over the weekend, at using RV as a flipbooker.
There are a few things that I'd like to be able to do with it
that don't seem to be supported by the current flipbooking
implementation.
As such, I'm looking to write a new subclass of FlipbookDialog
that supports a different FlipbookApplication API, giving more
options to the Application class.
There are two features that I'd like to support:
* Supporting standard render callbacks in the FlipbookApplication
class. beforeRender, beforeFrameRender, afterFrameRender and
afterRender.
* Supporting reordering on the frames to be rendered. So frames
1-100 could be rendered in the order: 1,100,50,25,75,etc, or
reversed, etc
With this, what I'd like to do with RV is write a new
FlipbookApplication class that starts up RV at the start of a
flipbook render, and passes in each frame as it renders. This
would enable Shake-style flipbooking where you can view the
rendered sequence as you go, and it keeps adding new frames to
the end. With the frame reordering, it would allow flipbooks to
start RV and then fill in the frames, meaning that, after half
the range is done, it'll already have every other frame. This
will allow artists to spot issues with their comps far earlier -
if there is an issue at the end of a render, it'll show up in the
first few frames, rather than the artist having to wait until the
whole render is done.
What do people think of this? It's something that I'd like to do,
and would plan on releasing it to the wider world. It's
something, though, that I'm sure a lot of people would have
opinions on, and would love to hear what people think before I
start on it.
Cheers
Hugh Macdonald
