ha - yes, but that kind of ruins the render ;)

the issue pops up as we saturate the farm (of course) and I think sys would have me fired if I did it myself anytime in the next 3 months!

I don't think Nuke will currently let you write arbitrary TIFF metadata, but a simple solution (if you've got the time to run test renders) would just be to do a Text node burn-in with [info hostname] as a text expression.

Subject: [Nuke-users] Tiff metadata / tags

Hey out there -

Does anyone know of a way to embed certain tiff tags into a (tiff)
render? A ModifyMetaData node doesn't seem to do it unless there is a
magic key I don't know of.

We are rendering tiffs and having some odd render issues. I'm hoping by
adding TIFFTAG_HOSTCOMPUTER
(http://www.awaresystems.be/imaging/tiff/tifftags/hostcomputer.html)  we
might be able to ID the renderbox and discover if it's something to do
with specific machines on the farm.

hmm - possibly some python afterFrameRender trick if there's not a
simple way I've overlooked?

Any other ideas on ID'ing which box a tiff is rendered on is welcome...

rendering uncompressed, 16 bit if that matters.

thanks -
JRAB
