The legendary toadstorm suggested to use hscript.

"takeautomode off" in the post-render script disables the auto take mode after Redshift enabled it before a render.

Experiencing the same problem.

I am wondering if "Auto Takes" can be toggled off with a simple python script in the "Post-Render Script" field?

Unfortunately, I don't have much experience with python scripts so I wouldn't know what a presumably one-liner to do it would need to look like?

To make things even easier, we created an HDA out of the whole setup that even writes the JSON file for you. The setup is pretty straightforward: plugin the curves as shown below (merge the flags using the “Custom Node Shape: Flags” SOP) and hit “Save”.

Download the file here if you like (there's also a walkthrough on how to wire everything in): https://vimeo.com/223222233 [vimeo.com]
