  • script for job name?

    ...anyone know of a script that will either pass the name from teh render output/save file to the job name in Backburner? i know it is probably wishful thinking, but i am getting tired of constantly typing both, when typically i keep both the same.

    maybe i should take the time to learn a little scripting myself.

    this script took care of what i was trying to acomplish.

    ...basically, i was rendering a building exterior that had 18 cameras. i was going through a process of setting the file name for each camera, then setting the job name for each camera, then submitting the job.

    with this script, i can select the cameras, spec a file type, and job name, then submit. it names each file according to the camera name, and each job according to the camera name.

    basically, i submit that job once, and walk away, rather than submitting it 18 times.
