Philippe's ociodisplay work

  • Setting up ACES pipeline for a studio moving to it from sRGB

  • Looking for a simple image viewer for them, thought of ociodisplay

    • Added optional HUD

    • should we move away from glut

    • should we use SDL or GLFW?

  • pyociodisplay is pyside2

    • originally built as an example of hooking up python to a glsl viewport

  • upgrading it needs imath, which needs built

  • then tried ocioview

    • this works! found a few things that needs updating

    • startup crash, fixed

    • session loading

    • sometimes having a compiled binary is nice - something we might think about for ocioview in the future

    • Michael has lots of work that might fix some bugs - should try his PR to see if some things are fixed first

    • Want OCIOview to be able to show different modalities and use cases to inform UI/UX design with OCIO

    • Michael has a test suite for ocioview now you can run locally

  • Any thoughts on adding stb_truetype.h and Ubuntu Sans Mono font?

OpenEXR colorInteropID PR

https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/openexr/pull/2560

  • Doug went through and added to Cary’s initial work now that the recommendation is published

    • updates links, docs, etc

    • can use exrstdattr to add the interopID

    • exr to aces cmd line tool - think it’s supposed to create SMPTE 2065-4 output - conversion happening on input???

    • how should we handle this

    • Doug will bring it up at the OpenEXR TSC meeting

    • We all say “kill it with fire”
