I/Ov1core

Overview

The other doorway. Renders on a background thread through the same engine the farm runs, so what you saw is what lands on disk.

How to

  1. Set file with a #### pattern for a sequence.
  2. Pick the format and its options; EXR writes multipart and multilayer.
  3. Set the output transform — this is where display encoding goes on, and the only place it should.
