I initially thought it was videotrack, ubisoft/videotracks#8
It's not consistent. It happened after I tried to understand shot manager through trial and error.
I would need a quick tuto (in English or French) about shot manager pipeline, to try to find when the bug happens.

I downloaded the "Ubisoft_ShotManager_V2-0-214.zip"
In preference > addons > I search for the location.
On the left bottom written in the info log :
Modules Installed () from 'C:\Users\PC\Downloads\_T_BLENDER\_SCRIPTS\Ubisoft_ShotManager_V2-0-214.zip' into 'C:\Users\PC\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\3.2\scripts\addons'
But nothing else happens...

I also tried with the "shotmanager-main.zip"
Same thing

Thank you for your cool work ! I really look forward to try it in my workflow :)

The duration of shots usually follows the audio rhythm.
Audio plays when previewing shots but, setting a shot precise duration before preview would be great!

Also I need to be able to grab strip (shot) start and end (like in video editing), without entering start and end frame numbers in the shot list, since, as soon as you manually enter a number, it also move the play head to the start of the shot (so you have to memorize the end frame, then enter it in the shot list

Describe the solution you'd like
a Sequencer like strip above shots, or simply a button to open and scale the sequencer (zoom on first track, same time window as timeline)

Describe alternatives you've considered
Add Sequencer, zoom track and time manually, but no strip grab, play head always moving back to shot start frame:

EDIT: Hmm, looking at your video, I guess audio was added in post-prod since the back in time ellipse didn't break the audio.
Wouldn't it be nice to also be able to play the audio linearly while jumping in time?
I know it's far beyond shot manager since we only have one line of time in a scene in Blender.
Maybe if shots could populate VSE once a sequence is validated?

EDIT2: I tried to do the post-prod in Blender (I did my short film with Blender). Actually, your pipeline breaks the Blender internal way of editing a sequence which is:
create a new scene (empty)
go to VSE tab
Add > sound
Add > scene > first scene
select strip > N > define camera and duration of the strip
duplicate the strip
move strip on timeline
change camera and time offset for ellipses

Hello thanks for this amazing tool!

When I use 'Render Current' and uncheck 'Use Stampinfo' it will always use stampinfo for the render for the first render. if I uncheck it and render again it will render correctly and not use stampinfo.

Thanks!

First of all, great addon, it really gives Blender the capability of being a full fledge storyboard software.

After trying it, one of the best things was being able to link gpencil objects with the current shot for a better workflow, so I wonder if its possible to also link different viewlayers to the corresponding shot so things not being used can be turned off (and then on) easily, for example zooming into place and adding 3D details and then turning those details off when we get back to the main storyboard.

Hope is at least a decent proposition, thanks for this amazing tool.

Hi, I can't wait to test this but it's not working on my rig (MbP 16, Macos 11.6).
It says I'm not connected to Internet... But I am!

I tried:
. Starting Blender using sudo /Applications/Blender.app/Contents/MacOS/Blender.
. Using a VPN/turning off firewall.
Nothing works (the ShotManager window is nowhere to be seen).
Any ideas?
Thanks!!

Piotr
EDITED: Works great on my WIN10 rig so it has to do with MacOs I guess.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The problem is I'm not a coder and thus I am unable make the addon compatible myself.

Describe the solution you'd like
A hero, or group of heroes, to get this addon working in Blender 4.0.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Cry. Seriously, my alternative is to just cry because It seems this is a very untapped addon niche. You don't know you needed it until you have used it.

Additional context
I fully understand this addon is no longer in development and only being maintained. The fact that it is has worked across the wide amount of versions that it has worked for is unheard of for for an addon. This is just a hope an a prayer.

Here are the features and topic that I plan to address in the next releases of Shot Manager.
The order and priority of the tasks may change. Please comment if you have specific needs.

V 2.0:

• #28
• Improvement of the UX of the Interactive Shots Stack
• Better support of storyboard materials
• Teaser and some feature videos for storyboarding

V 2.1:

• Lock of the storyboard frames to the start time of shots, associated support in Retimer
• Support of Blender 3.3 VSE features dedicated to storyboarding
• Json file for Project settings
• Progress bar for batch rendering

V 2.2:

• Tools to paint on free grease pencil objects, support of 2.5D storyboarding

Stamp Info is another of our add-ons and it is required - although not mandatory - by Shot Manager for writing information on output images.
Currently Stamp Info has to be installed manually and it has been reported as being a step that adds considerable weight to the deployment and update of Shot Manager.

We are then addressing this point by including the zip file of Stamp Info in this add-on.

Describe the bug
Playback resets once it hits shot with start frame 0

To Reproduce

1. create 3 shots
2. first 2 shots start frames on 1 or higher
3. 3rd shot on start frame 0

You will notice when addon is supposed to play shot1->shot2->shot3, it keeps looping on shot1->shot2, skipping shot3 entirely. Setting shot3 start frame on 1 or higher fixes it

Hello!
I've just discovered the Shot Manager and as a Previs Artist, and it rocks!!!
I was wondering if it was possible to add a checkbox for the Selected Markers in the Retimer. I am thinking of exploring more the Shot Management method in the near future, but for now dealing in really heavy scenes, it seems that the timeline Camera markers solution is still ideal to keep going at 24 fps.

Let me know what you think :)

Add a progress bar for rendering in the SM-render and add selection for cycles GPU engine.

Describe the bug
Basically "out of nowhere" cycling through shots inside SM is now laggy (as in, when I click on any shot on SM list, there's a delay and Cycles keeps flashing 'updating/BVH/kernels', which, if my memory serves well, wasn't happening when I poked at project last time (~1 week ago). When I'm using some old addon for cycling camera (https://github.com/jomachim/Cycle-cameras), camera changes instantly pretty much, just like SM used to. I have no idea why, tried troubleshooting for 2 hours, but couldn't get repro steps.

There's a video demo: https://files.catbox.moe/tzere4.mp4

In this, I have 3 cameras/shots. First, I'm cycling camera using addon (not SM, different one from link above)+hotkey - it does the job instantly.
Then I'm clicking on shots on SM list and you can see visible delay + Cycles keeps updating stuff, which I think it shouldn't happen - no changes to scene/lights and it, I believe, used to just reset sampling.
Then I'm back to switching cameras using other addon.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
You're going to hate it, I can't get repro steps :)

Expected behavior
Instant shot/camera switching from SM panel.

Additional context
Obviously something had to change in meantime between now and last time when I poked at project and SM was behaving fine. But I can't remember at all, nor figure out by trials/error method. I need some directions/hints to try out :(

But to sum up problem, for some reason when I'm clicking on shot on SM list, it first gives a short ~0.5s delay, then Cycles starts flashing some text about updating, noticed updating meshes/lights/BVH/kernels (although I haven't done any changes as you can see on video, just toggling cameras/shots). On solid view and eevee, it doesn't happen at all, although I'm not sure if it's helpful.

Tried blender factory reset -> install SM addon -> load .blend project fiel without UI, no changes as well.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, but you can see SM flashing different view/zoom when toggling between 2 shots, it's something I can see pretty much on all shot toggles.

Hi I'm the author of Shot Manager addon for Blender (2019). My addon is a paid product (Blender Market) of the same name and with similar functionality which I have dedicated an immense amount of time in developing. I am using a request as I'm unable to find any relevant contact details.

I like to request a modification to the addon name. Please consider that it uses exactly the same name as well as name set in bl_info and interface, This similarity in names is directly affecting my sales as potential customers are not aware that they are two different add-ons. While there is no legal necessity to change the name, I ask in the spirit of fairness, that you consider the background of existing add-ons and small businesses, which play a major role in the Blender community.

Minimal name suggestion : Ubisoft Shot Manager
I understand that a name without 'Shot Manager' in it would take considerable time to propagate the changes everywhere, but anything you could do to increase the distinction would be greatly appreciated.

To discuss further, I can be contacted at [email protected]

Hello, me again.
I am looking for a way to use Shot Manager with Render Farms.
So far, I did not come up with a way to do it as I cannot get the addon to render farms' machines.
One way I came up with would be

• converting the shots to Markers and Camera Binding (of course, shots cannot overlap then)
• or exporting each Shot into individual Blender files (very painful)

The first method seems a bit easier and I hope it would not mess things up that much :)
Is there a way to convert Shot Manager shots to Markers with Camera Binding?

Thank you for your work !

Best regards

Mikoláš

Hi its me again with some feedback!

It would be very useful to be able to Split a Shot at the Current Frame (maybe even with a shortcut or a button in the dopesheet).
The Icon could sit there together with the New Shot and Duplicate Shot buttons.

The Split Shot might also follow some naming rules (f.e, a shot number 1 would be split into 1a and 1b).
I hope this feedback proves useful!

• Blender v 3.2.1
• Add-on version: 2.0.214
• OS: Win

Describe the bug
When creating a new Scene in the same Project (.blend file), the new shots cannot be renamed and their name is always "-".
Also, UI gets kind of confused and keeps the same Sequence name and has some shots from the previous scene but no camera linked to them as there is no camera in the new scene.
Not sure if it is just a bug in the naming of the Shots but it would be nice to have the Shot Manager working in multiple Blender Scenes :)

I have 2 suggestions:

• Either make the Sequence stay the same between Blender Scenes, Basically, Sequence = Blender Scene
• Or make a new Sequence (maybe add a Sequence list?), independent of the Blender Scenes and have the Shot List transfer between Blender Scenes

Screenshots
scene 1

scene 2

On a 4k monitor with 150% scaling set in Windows Display preferences, the font_size setting of 10 is a wee bit too small for my old eyes. Blender's UI scaling also set to 1.0 but adjusting did not affect HUD text size.

This is the error I get under 'Dependencies' when installing in Blender 2.93 and 3.0 alpha.
Otherwise it installs ok and seems to work.

I install in admin mode in both cases. I also remove previous version.

Love the new camera to view, such a time saver!

Blender 2.93 uses Python 3.9 and currently there is no wheel for OpentimelineIO available. ShotManager is then not able to load.
Some changes in the code will be made soon to make ShotManager work on Blender 2.93 without OpentimelineIO in order to be able to use the add-on while the wheel is being created by the community.

Infos on the context

• Add-on version: V2-0-225
• Blender version, from installer or from zip: 3.4 Alpha
• Blender was launched in Admin mode? Yes
• OS: 12.6 (Apple Silicon)
• Bug was also on previous versions (I don't know / No / Yes, seen on version x.x): Don't know. Works as intended on Win10-11

Describe the bug
Click on Render All/ Playblast doesn't result in a complete readable mp4

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Click on Render all or Playbast
2. Check destination folder.
3. Separate mp4 shot files are there but no global one. It seems like the "gluing" of those files together hasn't happened.

Expected behavior
A playable global mp4 of the complete sequence

Additional context
In case it's useful, here is a scene that works on Win10 but not on Mac (you just need to point it to a proper Destination Folder):
Playblast_Win10.blend.zip
Here is a scene that was created on Mac but that doesn't work on Win10:
Playblast_MacOs.blend.zip
And here is what the Terminal tells me when I try rendering out a Playblast:
PlayBlast_Log.txt

Tell me if you need anything else to make this work.
And sorry for all my (Mac related it seems) issues :)
Thanks!!!

Describe the bug
It won't output the render as an mp4 file, maybe I'm doing something wrong but I've tried various render settings even changing the Output settings to Mp4 but it keeps resetting it to png when I hit render. I've tried with all both options; "Render Shot", "Render All" but it keeps resetting and outputing to png which is not ideal because I want to quickly render in eevee and preview my progress

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Setup up your shots and camera durations
2. Change your output settings to MP4
3. Click on render current shot/ render all
4. It resets the output settings from mp4 to png

Expected behavior
Render to an Video MP4 file so I can preview my animation
