[Nuke-users] Camera "Read from File" scripting issues

2016-03-02 Thread Thomas Volkmann
Hi,
 
I want to load an Alembic camera via script and disable 'read from file'
straight away, so that I can change values for 'near' and 'far'.
Problem is, that Nuke doesn't read in the Alembic file when I disable
'read_from_file' within the same script.
Basically I do:

1. cam = nuke.toNode("Camera")

2. cam.knob('file').setValue()

3. cam.knob('read_from_file').setValue(True)

4. cam.knob('read_from_file').setValue(False)

 

Steps 2 and 3 are interchangeable, the result is the same: I don't get the
animation curves

Any ideas for a workaround? Otherwise the user will just have to run a second
script afterwards..

 

cheers,

Thomas___

Re: [Nuke-users] RotoPaint vs Roto

2015-04-29 Thread Thomas Volkmann
This is why I use a single window spread over two monitors as a layout.
Unfortunately since Nuke9 it doesn't get saved properly anymore (scales to just
one screen). So first thing when launching Nuke is always resizing the window
over both monitors I hate it (even more as it worked just fine in Nuke8!) :/

  When hovering the mouse over the viewer and tapping A I get to see the alpha.
 If I type R I get a read node. G for Grade. B for Blur. It's a little
 inconsistent in how it works. If the mouse is back over the DAG (without
 clicking anything) and I type A nothing happens.
   
  I would prefer if the mouse is over the viewer and I type R G B A Y or M I
 get to view the appropriate channel. Not just the Alpha.

If you have floated the viewer, on a mac you will have to click

Otherwise you should have been ok.

  So many have now commented on this so I don't know if another email just adds
 to the spam factor or not...
 
  I also prefer mailing lists before forums. Because:
   
  - I subscribe to a number of mailing lists (I count 9 here now), which would
 translate to a number of forums. I simply don't have the time to go into
 multiple forum sites, dive into the topics and sub-topics – unless I have a
 specific issue.
   
  What this means is I do visit forums, but not to contribute to a community or
 answer someone's question, but to ask for help.
   
  With a mailing list. it is much easier for me to parse the constant flow of
 topics as well as contribute, as I can scroll through subjects and pick the
 ones that I find interesting. I read and sometimes comment, and in that sense
 contributing to the community. Honestly, I learn tons from the mailing lists
 I'm subscribed to since it's just so easy to take it in.
   
  Of course there are times when I won't have time to parse the steady flow of
 mailing list topics. But I wouldn't have had time for forums either.
   
  Then I also use Stack Overflow. Which is nothing like a mailing list or a
 forum, in its traditional sense. But it has interesting mechanics which I
 think a support forum should have. Heck, Google is using Stack Overflow
 instead of creating their own support forums. Take Google Compute Engine on
 Stack Overflow for example. I got help directly from the developers on a few
 things there. But it's designed to work only if you want to gain points by
 answering questions or if you need to ask a question – or in that case,
 because the company wanted to provide support. There's no friendly chitchat on
 Stack Overflow, and there shouldn't be. It's not a community, it's a support
 forum.
   
  I'm not opposed moving these lists to a forum, but I hope that it will offer
 the possibility to act as a mailing list as well, or at least I will probably
 just show up when I am facing a tricky issue that I need to solve. Which means
 I'm going to treat it like Stack Overflow - or a support forum. Not a
 community.
  And if that is what is going to happen, I'm sure the ones thinking like me
 will join in on a regular mailing list, complementing the forum.

  Fredrik

Is this true for ffmpegReader, too? I tried to build it for a whole day, and it
compiled without error, but it wasn't working in Nuke...drove me crazy. I ended
up blaming it on my limited skills and/or a wrong setup (although I made sure I
have the right gcc available).

Re: [Nuke-users] Linux read DNxHD Quicktimes

2014-04-03 Thread Thomas Volkmann
The main issue that I'm having is that Nuke/Hiero doesn't play DNxHD at all on
linux. That's no problem when using Nuke, because as mentioned before you
wouldn't want to work with that.
But not being able to use HieroPlayer right now is a real bummer!!  Especially
since these Quicktimes play just fine in every other application on my system :/

cheers,
Thomas

  In case it helps, QuickTime (mov) support has had a major overhaul using the
 Apple QuickTime libraries on Mac and Windows in Nuke 8.0.  Unfortunately this
 doesn't affect Linux as support for ffmpeg is limited.
 
  Feel free to send any stability or colour fidelity issues that you find with
 movs to support and we can look into them.  As Nathan says, many of the codecs
 have stability problems.  We have found quite a few with settings which don't
 work on various platforms.  In our overhaul for 8.0 we have avoided known
 issues with DNxHD on Mac and Windows and provided additional user controls to
 avoid stability problems.

  The best solution is to not use MOVs in Nuke. There are numerous stability
 problems with various codecs, especially on Linux.

  Deadline 6 (currently in beta) uses a database for the repository storage

  The monitor also updates automatically as well.
 
  I don’t have experience with Qube! myself, but I’ve heard good things, as

  Apparently Tractor is still a product as well, and a reasonably priced one,
  but I haven’t heard a peep about updates or new versions.

  Hey all,
 
  I'm working on building out a small render farm for a brand new facility. As

  At this point, I've narrowed it down to either Deadline or Qube!. At risk of

 Hi,
 Can anybody help me with archiving my nuke scripts? I need to compile all
 the elements in one folder...where everything sits in one place, image
 sequences, movs, source files etc. 
 
 also could someone direct me to getting render licence for nuke6.3. I seem
 to be going round in circles on the foundry website.
 
 forgive my ignorance, I am quite new to this
 
 Thank you
 any help would be much appreciated.

  two things come into my mind:
a) you can build a temp script with the read node and all the things 
  you want to do. and the end put in a write node
  in the read node file knob write: [argv 0]
  and in the write node put an expression to build the name from the
 write 
  node or put in [argv 1]
  then start nuke from a commandline with: nuke tempscript.nk 
  path/to/read/images.ext path/to/write/images.exr (you can get rid
 of 
  the second argument if you build the write node filenames by
 expression)
 
  this will start nuke and put the first argument 
  (path/to/read/images.ext) into the read nodes file knob
 
  b) the switch method isnt that bad, i would make an expression on the 
  disable knob of the write node which makes it only active if the right 
  switchinput is selected.
  something like: switch1.which==3?0:1

[Nuke-users] Particles switching channels

2011-10-26 Thread Thomas Volkmann
Hey list,

I want my particle-system to change from channel a to b in frame 50. Therefore 
I take a particleExpression Node and write frame==50 down in the chans-field 
and set to to b.
The Particles change to channel b now, BUT not all of them in frame 50. It 
seems that frame is somehow relative to the frame where the particle was 
emitted.
Is that expected behaviour? 
In the end I want to freeze my simulation at a certain frame, is this the right 
approach to do that, or is there another way?
And as it is my first day playing with Nuke-particles, is there a way to debug 
stuff (e.g. to see which value is passed to the particles from that 
chans-field)?

Thanks,
Thomas

P.S.: there is a simple sample scene attached
