Hello everyone,

I am currently rendering frames with Mantra in OCIO, and then I am using COPs to modify my final image. But my goal is then to export the final frames to jpg. But obviously when I write my exr rendered with OCIO into jpg, I have a different image from the one I had in the render view and in the composite view. Does anyone knows which parameter I need to use before writing out my frames into jpg ? Do I need to do some sort of conversion in a vop ?

Thanks a lot,

Tom

Yes, currently the composite ROP does not provide ocio color conversion for output. Using a VOPCOP2 filter with an ocio convert node inside is the only way to bake the color transform in Houdini.

Alternatively, if you have access to the oiio tools, a shell program can be used to convert linear images to jpg with the ocio transform applied.

Thanks for you answer jsmack.

I was indeed using this method, but I have no idea of what to put in the "From space" and "To space" values.

Shouldn't that be Output-sRGB?

I don't get the same image unfortunately.

'From space' should probably be ACEScg.
More code, less clicks.

Can you show us what you get and what you expect? Also in VOP you plugged Blue value into Alpha.
