Hallo,I write a Videopost plugin that actually only writes files and does not process the rendering. So I like to skip the rendering for each frame. Is it possible at all? I really like to keep it as Vieopost plugin because I have easy access to the current frame and a description. I don't like to use dialogs.
thanks in advance,
Matthias

Try SkipRenderProcess() from VolumeData or just return RAY_USERBREAK from your post plugin. Sketch and Toon does something similar for vector rendering.

thanks David, problem is I write this for 8.5 and there is no SkipRenderProcess() and RAY_USERBREAK quits the whole rendering. Another thought, my plugin runs in VP_FRAME, is the Volumedata valid at this point?

No its not available until VP_RENDER. Could you not render the frames yourself? Sketch does the frames itself but calls the renderer per frame, using RAY_USERBREAK to terminate each render once the vectors are created. Its not possible to block the rendering in any other ways, you can use CalcVolumetric and return trans=0, col=0 to block some rendering but CINEMA will still evaluate the first span.
