Re: [Nuke-users] Module nukescripts.renderdialog question
Hello Dennis, On 11/07/2012 01:21, Dennis Davis wrote: Was just trying to figure out how to put my frame range into the custom field. It is possible using some functions in renderdialog that set up default states for the various knobs: nukescripts.setRenderDialogDefaultOption(frame_range_string, 1,2,3,4) nukescripts.setRenderDialogDefaultOption(input, custom) What's important to understand is that the renderdialog really is just something nice for the user to use and it's just a wrapper for the nuke.executeMultiple() and nuke.executeBackgroundNuke() functions. Chances are, you really want to create your own dialog (not difficult) to drive nuke.executeMultiple() in the way you want.

Re: [Nuke-users] Inserting timecode into metadata field
Hi Toki, what version of Nuke are you using and on what platform? There should be a 'write time code' check box among the codec options on the Write node (next to the 'units' knob and below the 'audio offset'). Enabling this will write time codes as long as it's called input/timecode, which you can add though ModifyMetaData. The tooltip should explain it in more detail. If you don't have this knob, it's time to upgrade. :) HTH, Wouter On 13/06/2012 18:32, Toki Wartooth wrote: Hi All.. I have some ProRes444 Quicktimes that I am processing through Nuke..

Re: [Nuke-users] Nuke and Quicktime
Hello Ryan, the QuickTime helper process is not only used for reading and writing QuickTime files but also to use the QuickTime VideoOut facility for broadcast monitors. At Nuke's start up it needs to launch a process to detect whether there are any supported outputs available. After this the process should exit. Short of deleting the appropriate libraries there is no way of preventing the application from being launched as Nuke needs the information it supplies. Obviously doing that is not something The Foundry recommends nor supports. If you are seeing cases of the processes hanging around, please contact support and supply the version number of your Nuke install as well as Windows version so we can identify cases where this happens. Thanks, Wouter On 16/08/2011 14:19, Ryan O'Phelan wrote: And what do we need to do to insure that QuickTime helper doesn't launch?

Feel free to send a request to support if real-time playback is important to you, though - the more people who want it, the higher priority the fix, after all. I'd always wanted to spend time making it faster myself, but we just didn't have the opportunity back then. Turning on monitor output also means a few viewer optimisations, such as GPU processing, have to be turned off, so that means things will generally be a bit slower in that case. The reason for that is because we need the final processed data to send to the monitor output card from the CPU rather than the GPU.
