Each display can contain additional AOVs/LPE per display. We recommend OpenEXR and TIF formats. Note that we require OpenEXR for denoising.

Display Options

Display options become visible and editable when a display driver is selected. There are not no additional options for interactive renders to the image tool or the houdini displayHoudini display.


Note that quantized 8-but images will default to sRGB output to avoid banding.


OpenEXR

This is the preferred format for all of your renders. It provides an efficient format that holds your images, data, and more.
