thanx
I am building the same menu twice– once for the Nuke menu, and once for the Nodes menu. It’s a lengthy list of items to .addCommand() with, and it slows down Nuke’s boot. There must be a better way.
My thought was to build the menu once, store it, and then use it to make the second menu by passing a Menu Object to some kind of makeMenu function. Apparently there is no such function?
I wish this would work, but Menu Objects just seem to have no place as arguments in Nuke:
mainMenu = nuke.menu("Nuke")
subMenu = mainMenu.addMenu("Misc")
subMenu.addCommand("One", "")
subMenu.addCommand("Two", "")
subMenu.addCommand("Three", "")
nodeMenu = nuke.menu("Nodes")
nodeMenu.addMenu(subMenu)
Thoughts?
Many thanks.
I’m hoping that since I’ve been gone, people have figured out a good workflow for this. What shader do you use to output? How do you use it with existing (or 3rd party?) Nuke nodes?
Many thanks in advance for the help!

As you can see there is a gamma variation compared to the actual footage that is on digibeta, we checked it twice by ingesting it using flame.
2nd, more disturbing issue are the artifacts in the RGB channels. THe are mostly visible in blue channel.
I tried all things to check out when those thing occur.
Lodead frames in motion captured in Flame – everything was ok until I converted to QT using AJA 8bit uncompressed, after that I get those artifacts. Tried Prores also, same thing. The only way I can work in QT is to use no compression at all – that means no realtime playback. but that solves just half of the problems.
I still need to get footage from tape and record it back. Using AJA card I can only capture/edit to tape using native AJA QT codecs.
My software is up to date, QT is updated as well as drivers from AJA.
I realy have no idea how to fix this problem, and the worst part is that I was hoping to base my work on AJA workflow. Help out.
thanks in advance

Dutch studio Onesize outdid themselves for their latest reel. Masterfully edited and bookended by an edgy intro/outro sequence, the sound design and music composition from Jeff Dodson unite with the visuals to create an experience that moves forward with the conviction of a locomotive and the grace of a gazelle. Beautifully done!
