Rendered EXR image sequence naming convention issue

Hi,

 

When rendering an EXR sequence from After Effects, the naming convention did not work properly. 

MCH_010_0010_v006_[#####] should have been rendered as MCH_010_0010_v006_1001 (frame number), instead it was rendered as MCH_010_0010_v006_[#####]001. Now I have to rename all the frames manually.

 

  1. Version of the app: Version 23.5 (Build 51)
  2. Platform and OS version: Windows 10 Home
  3. Basic steps to reproduce the problem: EXR sequence set up in After Effects and rendered multiple projects in Media Encoder

It seems that this is After Effects specific right now. I can write a feature request for this.

When rendering directly from After Effects, the _[#####] renders as _00001 (as set in After Effects), if I render from Media Encoder, it ignores that setting

What exactly do you consider a bug here?

OpenEXR does add the frame number after a base name thet you provide. If your base name is MCH_010_0010_v006_[#####] then your frames will be MCH_010_0010_v006_[#####]_100, ...
