(done) [HOU-2031] VFB color corrections for animation renders

V-Ray V-Ray for Houdini General
1

Hi, is there a way how to “burn in” the VFB color corrections (Exposure, Hue/Sat, etc) into the final output EXR when rendering a frame range?
You can obviously recreate these in Nuke/Fusion etc - but some are quite hard to recreate (Highlight Burn) to match the VFB exactly.

Thanks!

Hi @lukasvojir , the option to save CC in raw files is missing,but you could use this post-translate script to activate it. This could affect not only RGB, but render elements as well!

import vray

renderer = vray.VRayRenderer()

for node in renderer.plugins: [INDENT]if node.getType() == 'SettingsOutput' :[/INDENT]
  [INDENT=2]node.img_rawFileSaveColorCorrections = 1
[/INDENT]

@lukasvojir ,the option to save VFB color corrections in raw files is added in last nightly build. It is in “Advanced” group in “Images” tab of V-Ray ROP node.
