Hi there,
I'd like to use Rush in a way that it might not have been
designed to and thought I'd ask if it was possible first.
We use Framecycler for playing back sequences. To allow real
time playback of really long sequences Framecyler has its own proprietary file
format called .ihss. Now you can make these ihss files in the Framecycler GUI
or use Framecycler’s command line utility (no GUI at all) called Sequence
Publisher that takes a sequence of frames and creates one .ihss file.
So I want to make these .ihss files on the farm and do it
through Rush. So instead of doing an operation on lots of frames spread over a
farm, I need to do one huge operation on a whole sequence just on one render
node, and output one file.
Is this possible?
Sequence publisher has the following syntax:
publisher /path/to/frames.#.cin /path/to/outputfile.ihss –r
50% 50%
The –r is a resize in x and y. There are other options
but we only use these currently.
If this is possible some pointers on how to create a
submission GUI for this would be great!
Thanks,
Mark
