Heya

I’m trying to submit job to BB with 1 frame only. But I want the name to be > test_12_A.png not test_12_A0000.png

Does any one know a command that let me do this ?

m =NetRender.GetManager()
m.connect #automatic "255.255.255.0"
job = m.newjob ()
job.useAllServers = true
job.name = "aaaa"
job.toFrame = 0
job.submit()

I tried job.frames = (“1”) but when I check monitor task summary window it still list animation and lots of frames to render. Not just 1 render.

You need to change another setting:
job.nonSeqFrames = true

Hey

Tried it too. Rendering 1 frame works, but it still saves as Name0000 instead of name.

Any idea how to get it to save just as normal render without the extra 0os ?

I see this post is alreday three years old… I have the same problem. Could you find a solution for that?

if the name is a big deal for you just rename files the way you want.

Did anyone find a solution?
