Hi Kuchinskiievgen!
Thank you for the detailed video!
It seems that you are doing everything correctly, so the problem might be on our end.
To fix this, I would like to as you to send us an email to support@pulze.io with

  • the smaller, and
  • the bigger .exr files

so I can reproduce the process pictured in the video, and fix the behavior.

Thank you in advance!

Hello, thank you for the files!
I have located the issue, and it is fixed in version 1.2.5.
I have sent you a detailed email about it, but the basic takeaway for future readers is this:

  • When an .exr file is imported by ExrIO, it adds a “.RGBA” to the names of the render elements. This name extension is irrelevant in the case of Post Manager.
  • ExrIO names the beauty “RGB” or “RGBA”.
  • When using multichannel exr files, Post Manager names the beauty “Beauty”, and the replacer will look for that, and will skip “RGB” or “RGBA”.
  • If you add “RGBA” to your Render Element list, it will find every layer that has “RGBA” in their name, and will generate undesired results.
