Follow-up question to my @SideFX #Houdini #KarmaXPU post yesterday (xitter.cf/prdx72/status/18150566…): if I work with "ACES 1.0 - SDR Video" and render a SDR file (i.e. JPG) for previewing, the render doesn't match up with the viewport/MPlay. Export from MPlay with OCIO baked in does.
Quick question: when rendering in "ACEScg" with @SideFX #Houdini #karmaXPU, do people view their output with the View Transform set to "ACES 1.0 - SDR Video" (aka a tonemapped result) or "Un-tone-mapped" (aka in Linear Rec.709)? Asking for a friend.

Is there a way to bake in the View Transform during rendering with #KarmaXPU (like it's possible in Redshift)?

The other option would be to work with the "Un-tone-mapped" view transform, where everything is matching up. But it doesn't have the nice roll-off in the highlights that "ACES 1.0 - SDR Video" has.

Decided to finally take a bit of quality #Houdini time, and jump into Solaris, #KarmaXPU and #MaterialX. Still lots to learn and figure out (what to do in SOPs and LOPs, ACES Workflow, Packed Prims, Motion Blur, AOVs etc.) – but it's a start!

As part of my presentation at the #OFFF2024 #Houdini HIVE, I decided to also create a short film titled BREATHE – a personal project exploring the themes of resilience and inner resolve through reconnecting with one's sense of self: behance.net/gallery/19745110…

One of my definite highlights at the at @OFFFest #OFFF2024 #Houdini HIVE was the talk by the incredibly talented people from SAUVAGE.TV. Stellar artistry and superb direction: youtube.com/watch?v=jXlA6xLd… ... Full project: sauvage.tv/work/lol-paranoia

I don't use the Textport in #Houdini that much, but recently I moved a material library from a local drive to a NAS and had to replace all the material paths. With "opchange from to", this was done in the blink of an eye: sidefx.com/docs/houdini/comm… ... Any other useful examples?

The talk I gave at @OFFFest #OFFF2024 for @SideFX and @GSG3D is finally online! In it, I showed how to set up a quick render in #Houdini with #Redshift, talked a little bit about a personal project and tried to squeeze in as many tips as I could: youtube.com/watch?v=U8UpmtdS…

Since I had already bought a 3-DAY FULL PASS when asked to present at #OFFF2024, I want to try and give the ticket I purchased away for free – no strings attached! All I wish for is that is goes to someone to who it makes a difference and who will actually attend the festival.

So if a free ticket to @OFFFest #OFFF2024 would make a difference to you – reply to THIS post to let me know. I am trying to give the ticket away this Friday, Mar 22, 2024, 8pm CET. If there's more than one person interested, I'll pick one winner by chance.

Let's see if this works. Please feel free to share the first post, so we can find one person to attend @OFFFest #OFFF2024 for free and the ticket doesn't go to waste. Cheers! #design #creativity #inspiration #spreadthelove

I've seen people use metaballs before in @SideFX #Houdini, but the ability to modify point clouds with transformed metaballs looks awesome! Need to give this talk by Todd Dufour a proper watch: youtube.com/watch?v=9f4gIedO…

Love the new FFmpeg export in @SideFX #Houdini 20 – blazing fast and no more temp files when exporting. Is there any way to have it default to "h264" instead of "av1"?

One slightly annoying thing: once it's done encoding and you open the export dialog again, the output filename again shows as "$HIP/untitled.mp4". Any way to make it remember the last filename like H19.5 used to do?
