Batch Editing Images with Corona Image Editor
GeorgeR:
I have 2 questions, regarding the command line options rather than the batch script:
1) Can I set format output options, like 16 or 32bit for EXR, and with or without alpha?
2) Can I set the output using tokens, like {name}_{frame}_post_{element}.{format}?

Hi, EXRs get always saved with alpha and with 32bit depth. There is no token support, but you can script it and rename outputs to whatever needed.

Hello :)
I sort of jump into this thread to share an opinion about batch editing imaging with CIE. I think this method doesn't match the Corona philosophy ... user-friendly, simple, straight-forward, but powerful nonetheless. Do you guys have plans to propose a GUI for batch editing images with the CIE ? it would be amazing to fine-tune an image in the CIE, and then call batch editing from a simple menu, aim a folder where the images to edit are saved, set a few options, and go !
Despite the fact I'm old enough to have known DOS commands time as a daily stuff, I think command line things should stay something from the past ;)
Well, my 2 cents :P

Hi, thank you for your input. You are right, but I must say that the batch editing script has never been an official tool meant for a wide audience and has never been part of Corona releases. It was given to the community as an example showing how some Corona expert users or render farms could plug the command-line CIE into their workflows. In the future, we might introduce more user-friendly ways how to deal with such things but there is no time estimate for that right now.

I'm testing the batch editing to apply denoise to an animation, but during the process some random frames gives an error "Render element does not exist, or cannot be considered for denoising (it is hidden, or it is not an RGB element)".
(see picture in attachment)
I edited the .bat to denoise only the BEAUTY pass, and if I manually open the frames that are giving errors they are perfectly fine and I can denoise and save them.
Is there a solution for this?
Thanks

This is fixed in V6 RC1. If possible, please test it and report if it ever happens again.
