if you need your output file named exactly like your input file then use a little TCL expression in the file knob of the write node
suggestion your filename convention is like: //path/to/file/filename.pattern.ext
then:
1 |
[lindex [split [lindex [split [knob [topnode].file] .] 0] /] end]
|
will give you back just the "filename" part of the original read node
if you want to write to same folder as the original file but with a new filename extension you could use:
1 |
[file dirname [knob [topnode].file]]/[lindex [split [lindex [split [knob [topnode].file] .] 0] /] end]_conv.%04d.exr

... You could also just use Root dir: [file dirname [knob [topnode].file]] File name: [file tail [knob [topnode].file]] File extension: [file extension [knob [topnode].file]] |

... if you have merge operation - script try to take source filename from B node (in your case is not file with name) so that is why an error i noticed that issue and flip sources (shift+x) but here i have an suggestion: - could anyone correct this recipe to take filename not from previous Read node but from first one (Read1) PS - how to make this script write with SAME filename but in new folder which was manually created in folder where is Read1 node file is |
