Hi Greg,

I'm trying to get rid of a long standing bug in my python-based Houdini scripts. The hbatch command is passed via the Notes field, just as it is in your perl version of the script. According to your docs however the notes field needs to begin with a frame range, correct?

Here's a submit which illustrates the current state of my notes field:

title            cca0030_fx_cloves_007_v001.hip-ROP_cloves_noholdout_HOUDINI
frames           1398-1578,1000000
command          python /EEP/Tools/Settings/rush/rushscripts_v102.42a9/submit-maya-python/submit_houdini.py -render /Casino/Poker/Shows/cc/cca/cca0030/fx/houdini/chrish/cca0030_fx_cloves_007_v001.hip 0 off 1000000 1578 1 yes 3 Fail 
imgcommand       python /EEP/Tools/Settings/rush/rushscripts_v102.42a9/submit-maya-python/submit_houdini.py -imgcommand %s
autodump         off
maxtime          00:00:00
maxtimestate     que
ram              8000
waitforstate     done
cpus             +linux=1@10
logdir           /Casino/Poker/Shows/cc/cca/cca0030/fx/houdini/chrish/logs/cca0030_fx_cloves_007_v001.hip.log/ROP_cloves_noholdout

notes        COMMAND: render -Va /out/ROP_cloves_noholdout

This typically produces an error and causes the render to immediately go to retry #2:

"rush: 'rush -notes': frame range error: 'retry': bad frame number at 'r'"
