EXR Compression | VFX Grace

Introduction:

This software can selectively compress or delete some layers in EXR sequence and output multilayer EXR sequence or PNG sequence. So it greatly reduces unnecessary storage and improves the speed of sequence reading and rendering with lossless cryptomatte. It’s a pretty convenient and essential tool. 

Running Environment:

Windows System

Functions:

Compress the layers in EXR selectively, and output the result.

Delete the layers in EXR selectively, and output the result.

Solely output any selected layer which can be in EXR format (16 bit and 32 bit), PNG format (8 bit and 16 bit), and JPEG format.

Output one or more cryptos in PNG format.

Installatio:

Just double-click to run the EXE file.

Instructions:

Drag and drop the EXR sequence folder or EXR files into the EXR file list in the software interface, and set the EXR output in the openEXR channel setting panel as per personal need. Then separately select the channel to be output in the Independent Output panel, and modify its format. Check the crypto to be output separately in the Cryptomatte Output panel. Then click Start Convert. It will be done for a minute. The output sequence is in the same level folder of the original sequence.

Note:

If the luminance of the output png image exceeds 1, please select Luminance clip type ac
