RVIO Plug-in Guide
Job Submission
You can submit RVIO jobs from the Monitor, or you can right-click on a job and select Scripts -> Submit RVIO Job To Deadline to automatically populate some fields in the RVIO submitter based on the job's output.
Submission Options
The general Deadline options are explained in the Job Submission documentation, and the Shotgun options are explained in the Draft and Shotgun documentation.
The RVIO submitter allows you to create and save Layers, each of which can contain one or two source images, an arbitrary number of audio files, and a list of overrides.
- Click the New button to add a new Layer.
- Click the Rename button to rename the selected Layer.
- Click the Remove button to remove the selected Layer.
- Click the Clear All button to remove all Layers.
- Click the Load Layers button to load saved Layers from disk.
- Click the Save Layers button to save the list of current Layers to disk.
For Layers, the only required setting is the Source 1 file(s). If specifying a sequence, you can set the range to the right of the file name (the same for the Source 2 file if specified). Note that the .rv file format is also supported as a Source file. For Audio Files, a comma separated list is used to allow the submission of multiple files. Other than submitting at least one Layer, the only other required option is the Output File under the Output tab. See the RVIO Documentation for more information about the available options and overrides.
Codec Lists
The RVIO submitter pulls its codec settings from the Codecs.txt file in \\your\repository\scripts\submission\RVIOSubmission. The contents of this file were retrieved from running "rvio.exe -formats" in a command prompt. This means that if your installation of RVIO supports additional codecs that aren't available in the submitter, you can run the following and then take the resulting Codecs.txt file and replace our original one with it:
rvio.exe -formats > Codecs.txt
Plug-in Configuration
You can configure the RVIO plug-in settings from the Deadline Monitor. While in super user mode, select Tools -> Configure Plugins and select the RVIO plug-in from the list on the left. To get a description of each setting, simply hover the mouse cursor over a setting and a tool tip will be displayed.
