# Sequence determination in custom JavaScripts (2026-03-06 22:52Z)

For both custom javascripts, it appears we currently use blendname to determine the sequence. Can we use job name instead? That way, different sequences can be created from the same blend just by changing the job name before submission.

Now I understand the issue. Both scripts use `blendname` (derived from `path.stem(settings.blendfile)`) to determine the sequence folder and output file naming. The user wants to use the job name instead so that different sequences can be created from the same blend file just by changing the job name.
|
|
|
|
Let me identify all the places where blendname is used:
|
|
|
|
1. In `TalkingHeads Custom Render.js`:
|
|
- Line 207: `const blendname = path.stem(settings.blendfile).replace('.flamenco', '');`
|
|
- Line 217: Used in path construction `parts.push(blendname, \`${blendname}_######\`);`
|
|
- Line 347: `const stem = path.stem(settings.blendfile).replace('.flamenco', '');` (for video output)
|
|
- Line 74: The `render_output_path` eval also uses blend name
|
|
|
|
2. In `TalkingHeads cycles_optix_gpu.js`:
|
|
- Line 381: `const blendname = path.stem(settings.blendfile).replace('.flamenco', '');`
|
|
- Line 385: Used in path construction `parts.push(blendname, \`${blendname}_######\`);`
|
|
- Line 314: `const stem = path.stem(settings.blendfile).replace('.flamenco', '');` (for video output)
|
|
- Line 65: The `render_output_path` eval also uses blend name
|
|
|
|
In Flamenco job scripts, the job object should have a `name` property that contains the job name. Looking at the compileJob function signature, it receives a `job` object.
|
|
|
|
I need to:
|
|
1. Add a new setting `job_name` that gets the job name
|
|
2. Or use `job.name` directly in the compileJob function
|
|
|
|
Looking at the Flamenco API, job objects typically have a `name` property.
|
|
|
|
I'll modify the scripts to prioritize the job name when creating output paths. By using `job.name || blendname`, I ensure flexibility in naming while maintaining a fallback to the original blend file name. This approach allows users to customize their sequence output without changing the underlying blend file structure.
|
|
|
|
The key modifications will involve:
|
|
- Replacing hardcoded blendname references
|
|
- Adding a dynamic naming mechanism
|
|
- Ensuring backward compatibility with existing render workflows</details></think>

I see the issue. Both scripts use `blendname` (derived from the blendfile filename) to determine the output folder and filename pattern. To use the job name instead, I need to modify the `computeAutoRenderOutputPath` functions and the video task functions to use `job.name` instead of `blendname`.
|
|
|
|
Let me make those changes.

All four edits were successful. Now I should also update the `render_output_path` eval in both files to use job name instead of blend name. Let me check those lines.</details></think>

Now I need to update the `render_output_path` eval expressions in both files to use job name instead of blend name.

Done. Both scripts now use the job name instead of the blend name to determine the sequence folder and output file naming.
|
|
|
|
**Summary of changes:**
|
|
|
|
1. **`computeAutoRenderOutputPath` function** (in both files): Now uses `job.name` as the sequence folder name, with a fallback to the blend filename if no job name is set.
|
|
|
|
2. **`authorCreateVideoTask` function** (in both files): Now derives the output video filename from the render directory (which is based on the job name), ensuring the video name matches the sequence folder.
|
|
|
|
3. **`render_output_path` eval** (in both files): Updated the auto-eval expression to use `job.name` when available, falling back to the blend filename.
|
|
|
|
This means you can now:
|
|
- Submit the same `.blend` file multiple times with different job names
|
|
- Each job will render to its own sequence folder based on the job name
|
|
- The output files will be named according to the job name
|
|
|
|
Example: If you have `Shot_010.blend` and submit it with job name `Shot_010_take1`, renders go to `.../Renders/Shot_010_take1/Shot_010_take1_######.png`. Change the job name to `Shot_010_take2` for a different sequence output.
