Hi guys, in Job panel when right clicking on job > Job Output > View Output > is there any way to tell Deadline to open whole sequence in an img viewer instead of selecting 1 frame at time?
We like the double-click job = display job properties and double-click task = view frame behaviors…just wanting a way to view sequences without copying the output path & launching RV from a shell. We have a workaround script for this but would be nice option to have included.
Hi
You could try turning on RV’s “Sequence From File” package? This forces RV to load the whole sequence that the file being passed in belongs to. A little hacky but it works.

You could also write a task right-click script that launches RV and passes it the sequence in the format that it accepts.
Part of our concern with opening the sequence is that it’s likely different applications that accept sequences will expect them in different formats. So if we did it in a way that RV supports, it might not work for other applications. It’s less of an issue with individual frames because almost any image viewer can take an image as a command line argument and it will open it.
Cheers,

That makes sense, thanks Ryan. We went the route you suggested with a right-click launch RV script. We also liked the option to set up hotkey. Happy artists 
Thanks!
