Render Data - EXR compression type [SOLVED]

Hi all!

I'm writing one script to collect and set the render setting to render some projects with the same render setting and speed up the workflow with this script.

I want to use EXR format to Multi Pass setting but in the python SDK documentation doesn't talk about compression for each format (jpg, or exr for example).

So, how can I get the compression data to set it with the script? I want to set the Lossy 16bit format in blocks of 16 scanlines exr compression.

Here is the format sectionof the script:

import c4d

def Format() :

doc=c4d.documents.GetActiveDocument()
rDat=doc.GetActiveRenderData()
MPFormat=c4d.FILTER_EXR #EXR format
rDat[c4d.RDATA_MULTIPASS_SAVEFORMAT] = MPFormat #Set EXR in Multipass Output Render Settings
print rDat[c4d.FILTER_EXR] #always print 1 any option compression information
c4d.EventAdd()

Format()

----------------------

Thanks and cheers!!

Don't know if it's uptodate or not but did you read this thread? Because for me everything is working when I use the script from this thread.

Hi cybor09,

as stated out by gr4ph0s, in the thread he mentioned there's a small snippet showing how to define the options for the EXR file format by adding a sub-container. Basically once you have accessed the RDATA_SAVEOPTIONS BaseContainer, just add a subcontainer with the additional options you need to be used.

Best, Riccardo

I guess it will be really nice to have at least all options exposed.
Since even in the C++ sdk I was not able to find others options

btw: your link point to nothing riccardo ;)

And sorry, I didn't search correctly with the advanced search options before to create this thread but I'm grateful for the atlas :slightly_smiling_face:. This should be added to the SDK :smile:
