I'm trying to generate a render stats xml following the docs (https://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/ref/utils/renderstatsreport.html). However, when I try and use the renderstatsreport utility from the Windows>Shell, I get the following error:


I checked the File Explorer and I can see the utility here: C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 20.5.410\bin\renderstatsreport.bat

What am I doing wrong?

OS: Windows 10

Something like this should work.

"C:/Program Files/Side Effects Software/Houdini 20.5.445/bin/renderstatsoverlay.bat" --color-space "your color space of choice" "path/to/exr" "path/to/jpeg" --overlay --template "path/to/template"

Your issue is probably the space between Program Files. Need to use " at the start and the end of the path when a space exist.

It doesn't seem to recognize the renderstatsreport or overlay as commands. When I test something like hoiiotool or iconvert, it works fine.
