EXR compression in Arnold - fine tuning.

Hello there,

Just wondering if there are any unexposed settings in Maya to fine tune for example

EXR - dwaa compression. I see I can select it but the compression level is hidden. I assume it is set at 30 or so but if I wanted to squeeze the file size, is there anywhere to change this value ?    

Thank you.

Alan.

hi there, I recently trying to use DWAA compression type, and i found out by viewing the metadata in Nuke, the compression level is 45 by default i think... and i can't find a place to modify it in maya...And I have another problem... when i include some AOVs(cryptomatte,N,Z,....) the exr's metadata shows that it's actully using ZIP instead.... if someone can give me a hint...why is that....
