Hey Ivan, Doesn't have to be more than one format... just one will do. Try a test:
1. Write out a file without pixel_aspect in the header, like SGI with the format: 20x20 5 2. In a new Nuke instance, read that in. It's square; Nuke has no way of knowing it had a pixel_aspect of 5.0. 3. In a new Nuke instance, create a format in the root: 20x20 5 (you don't need to set it as the root format, just define it). 4. Read the same file back in and Nuke matches it to that format, pixel_aspect included. -E Read thg 2011/6/23 Ivan Busquets <ivanbusqu...@gmail.com> > Formats.tcl file has nothing to do with Reader's aspect ratio. >> > > It does when there's more than one format defined with the same resolution, > and the file does not contain metadata of its pixel aspect. > > In that case, Nuke will set the format of the Read to the first format in > the list that matches the file's resolution, with whatever pixel aspect is > defined in that format. > > > On Thu, Jun 23, 2011 at 1:50 PM, Adrian Baltowski < > adrian...@poczta.onet.pl> wrote: > >> Hey >> >> Formats.tcl file has nothing to do with Reader's aspect ratio.
