I noted this as well.

Let's see what comes back from support@sidefx.com

Hey there QuakeMarine

So you not considering Houdini then? That's a shame.

Thanks for the reply. I'm going to avoid using multiple IFDs and image planes for the mean time. The main thinking behind this is to remove the need to re-render IFDs and try and keep as much of the tile-rendering on the farm functionality to the mantra python wrapper.

Additionally I'm looking to get this base functionality working then we can add more features to it as we progress.

I'll make the farms python mantra wrapper check for the render huge tile flags from the farm and call the tile co-ord function from the python filter and append the file name with the tile co-ords for the auto-stitcher script to re-join etc..

I can see how it works, slight shame that python filtering doesn't reach into the output api of the render but hey, that's not the end of the world!
