Im working on a shot that have some wires to be removed. The shot is 2500 frame long… lot of work… i started last night and in order to see how my work goes, i made a selected render from 0 – 300, in a Test.mov H264 (this is HD project)…

It started and a few seconds later this message appears:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>

File "C:/Program Files/Nuke6.0v1/plugins\nukescripts\renderpanel.py", line 31, in render_panel

nuke.executeMultiple(_list, frame_ranges )

RuntimeError: F_WireRemoval in F_WireRemoval1: Effect raised an error during render.

The schematic is Read (Tif sequence of the shot in HD) then Wireremoval node, then a write node attached, then a viewer with one bus to see the original shoot, and another to see the repair. No multiple WireRemoval nodes or any complication.

Any ideas?!

Thanks all of u

Juani./
