This started out as nitpicking but turned into an experiment in changing hotkey on the go while using Nuke. I don't like where the shortcut key for next/previous frames (arrow keys) in Nuke. It's far away from the left side of the keyboard, and since I'm right handed, my hands…

One of the most tool I use constantly in Nuke is Pr_Suite_v1.1, created by Parimal VFX. What is included in the suite can be found on the linked website so I will not go into details. What this is about is some small improvement I made over the time I…

I've recently switched to KDE Neon for different experience, and realize that my python scripts for executing commands via launching terminal stopped working. And it hits me that specifying "gnome-terminal" would limit the scripts to only work on distros that comes with "gnome-terminal", and KDE Neon doesn't have it. As…

FFmpeg output from nuke

April 25, 2018May 25, 2018 by jeangjenq

Recently I discovered that nuke in Linux doesn't have H.264 in its codec list, unlike in Windows. Asking around nuke user forum reveals that it is because of quicktime only default on Windows and Mac, and there's codec licensing issue. But to sum it up, Nuke in Linux cannot output…

I've started using KDE Plasma Workspace in Cent OS 7 a few weeks ago, and I love every bit of it. Except when it comes to its theme ruining firefox's readability. The worst case scenario I had is when I'm on Google Developers site it turned both background and text…

In my 5 years experience of using Logitech MK700 keyboard, I've always encountered a weird issue where the media keys on top of keyboard only works when a media player is in focus on Windows. Weirdly enough I only discovered it's Logitech software that's causing problem, for its own keyboard!…

It's been a while since I touch after effects, being crazy in Nuke and all. But I just decided to pick up an old project and perhaps make a template/breakdown out of it. Looking into how complicated this project was, I must say, I miss the good old days in…
