Hello,
I have come across a wonky issue when rendering files to disk with Deadline 6 Beta. I am using the DL command-line tool to submit new render requests to the queue, and I have setup the following directives for the output in the job file:
OutputFilePath=Z:\some\output\path\here
OutputFilePrefix=comp.1234
In my first test case for a given scene, the render file for frame value 10 is output with a name as:
“comp.1234.10.exr”
This is the format that I would expect. However, if I submit a new job for a second scene I get the following output name instead:
“comp.1234.iff.10”
As you can see, the frame value now follows the file extension. I am using the same “OutputFilePrefix” directive in the job file for both cases. Can someone please tell me why there is a discrepancy in the naming of the output files between these two test cases?
Thanks lots!
