You can export your scene to orbx via the top menu bar. Octane->Export Scene
If you want to export an animation or timeline, you can use the Timeline exporter or the Recorder. You can find these in the top bar menu as well.

So from you are suggesting is that i dump an orbx at every frame.
Let me give you the full context. I Would like to record a timeline into orbx. The purpose of this: to batch render the timeline outside unity.

Is the API of the recorder window exposed so that I can kick off orbx export myself ?

I hope I'm clear.

Sorry, there is no C# API for the recorder or the timeline.

Exposing a function like so:
static void Record(OctaneUnity.RecorderSettings setting)
{
...
}


Is the same a pressing the record button via the recorder dialog. This could help us clear off hours of or tedious labour.
Could you please help us with this ?

regards
