Hi Larry! Thanks for the reply! :) We found an easy solution to this. You can save previews in cryptomattes from almost any renderer that supports them. They are turned off by default, since they do not contain any relevant data and are therefore considered "deadweight". So all we did was turn the previews back on and use the RGB channels as usual. That said, I am intrigued to try your solution just for fun and exercise. Thanks for your help!
Cheers, Fabian Sorry for the delay, sometimes things get away from me. > I don't think we have any built-in functionality for this, but I assume it > would be relatively straightforward -- I suppose all you're doing is > reading in the cryptomatte image and generating a new image where colors > are randomly (that is, hashed) assigned to each value of the data you're > interested in (object ID, namespace ID, material ID). > > On Feb 21, 2022, at 1:22 AM, Fabian Geisler < > fabian.geis...@automatik-vfx.com> wrote: > > > > Hi everyone! > > I was wondering if it is possible to generate a preview image of > cryptomatte files with oiio?
