Hi I'm using cryptomatte with Houdini (17.5) and octane (2019). It works perfect in Nuke, but in Fusion it doenst. (other engines like arnold and redshift are behaving more consistent, opening the same .exr file in both compositing applications)
There are specific settings in the C4D + Octane documenttaion about using cryptomatte (uxing .exr(octane) and not .exr for example)

But I'f I am correct the word cryptomatte doenst even appear in the houdini dcumentation yet? when is this planned to be added?
Are there specific rendersettings that should be different when using cryptomatte with Octane in Houdini as well?
Win 10 64 bit + Linux Ubuntu | Nvidia RTX 2080TI | AMD Ryzen Thredripper CPU 2970WX 24-Cores/48-Threads | Houdini - Cinema 4D - Maya - 3Dsmax

Hi,

I'm not aware of any option related to the cryptomatte file export that could be configured from the plugins side. Do you know if a cryptomatte file exported from the Standalone has the same problem?

Thanks,
-Juanjo
