Hi, I am just trying to get a script to run through the scene and change a few camera settings. I have based it on a old 2009 script and have got most of the properties I want to change to work. The one area I am having problems changing is FrameSizeMode to change it to “Fixed Resolution”.

from pyfbsdk import FBSystem, FBColor

# We simply iterate thru all the cameras in the system

for lCamera in FBSystem().Scene.Cameras:
    lCamera.FrameSizeMode.kFBFrameSizeFixedResolution 
    lCamera.ResolutionHeight = 480.0
    lCamera.ResolutionWidth = 854.0

# Cleanup everything.
del( lCamera )
del( FBSystem, FBColor )

I have tryed using as you can see “lCamera.FrameSizeMode.kFBFrameSizeFixedResolution”. I am I using it right? Is this the way to go? I don’t get any warnings but nothing is happening either.

Cheers

Hi, I’m having the same problem - I have been using this and it just won’t change to Fixed Resolution :

RenderSystem = FBSystem()
RenderCam = RenderSystem.Renderer.CurrentCamera
RenderCam.FrameSizeMode.kFBFrameSizeFixedResolution
RenderCam.ResolutionWidth = 1280
RenderCam.ResolutionHeight = 720
RenderCam.PixelAspectRatio = 1

Did I do something wrong or is this just not working as it should? Has anybody found a solution or a workaround to this?

THX
