[HOU-1688] Background image frame sequence in VFB

[Hannes Drossel]

Hi!

Is it possible to have a background image frame sequence in the VFB?

Like:

mybackground.$F4.exr

Also interested to have the background image referenced from another node's parameters.
Like having this typed as the background image in VFB:

`chs("/obj/emptyNodeWithFilePath/file")`

Could it be made so those strings are expanded correctly?

[Hannes Drossel]

Great! Thank you!

Does this update mean that $F4 will be expanded as well?

Yes, frame will be supported, however now I see that this feature will take a bit more time then "next nightly".

Hey, Hannes Drossel ,

this is available in the nightly builds under the Renderer ROP -> Images tab -> "Use VFB Background Image". When you enable the toggle and specify an image path there, the "Background" parameter on the VFB Color corrections will be overriden with the evaluated path.

Hope that helps!
