Instructions:

.nuke folder can be found here:
Windows: C:\Users\your-username\.nuke
OSX: /Users/your-username/.nuke

The Tools:

CustomWrite:

vidTOdpx / vidTOexr / seqTOexr

* Scripts for batch converting and writing files in nuke.

- Automaticlly  takes file names from input read nodes and crates sub-folders.

- Path for write nodes defaults to where your script is saved, or you can manually set it.
- Easily specify padding.
- Choose your write settings for the batch.
- Option to limit each write's frame range to the input read node.

For some reason the VidtoEXR puts each individual file in it's own folder, I don't want this to create it's own folder for each exr, I just want them all in my one folder. How do I fix this?

Hi, yes the it's build to that so that you can separate different write nodes or image sequences to their own folders. I'm away on holiday now so when I get back I'll modify it so you can have the option to disable sub folders.

Thanks a ton man, I just have one last recommendation. I'm mainly using this for exporting single images. for now. I noticed my naming convention changes...it goes from.

myscene_clr_v001.jpg
to
myscene_clr_v001.jpg.exr

I was wondering if you know of a way to change this, so it doesn't keep the original files .jpg .tiff .png etc at the end?

Oh, these where actually made for image sequences but your right it should support any need.

Your shuffleNwrite does create shuffles and writes from the node selected, however, it adds a write to every "already existing" shuffle in the script. Is that by choice, or is that a bug?

I'd love for it to only create writes off the shuffles your script creates.
