Query final render end frame driven by a clip via python

[andyhayXR9GZ]

I am looking to know the end frame of a render driven by a clip in 2022.3.

If I query :

start =getRenderStartFrame()
stop = getRenderStopFrame()

This gives me the animation start and stop frame, but if the render settings 'Use Clip Range' then those numbers remain unchanged ( but my clip has a different end value).

Is this correct? It would be nice if this respected clips?

I can query the logic of the render settings to determine which clip is being rendered:

if getRenderUseClipRange() :
    render_clip_name = getRenderAnimationClip()
    render_clip_node = findAnimClip(render_clip_name)

... but I see no method to extract the end frame? Is there a way I can get a clip's last frame ( e.g. to query the clip information to extract the 'End') ?

Thanks in Advance

Hi Andy,

This command can be used to generate a corresponding range.

getRenderOutputFilenames()

Thanks Dan ! Yes that can work.

def extract_frame_range( input ):

    # Create list of numbers derived from file frames  
    numbers = [ int(file.split(".")[-2].split('-')[-1]) for file in input]

    # Sort files to be in order ( just in case)
    numbers.sort()
    
    # Return min and max frame number
    return numbers[0] , numbers[-1]
 
 
 
def get_render_frame_range():
    
    # Pull clip based ranges    
    if getRenderUseClipRange() :
        
        return extract_frame_range( getRenderOutputFilenames() )
    
    # Pull the explicit range
    else:
                
        return getRenderStartFrame(), getRenderStopFrame()
        
print (get_render_frame_range())

Thanks very much !
