I'm just wondering when we'll see a full implementation of Open Image Denoising in Octane Houdini/Solaris. Right now we can only output the denoised beauty AOV pass, any other denoised passes (diffuse direct, etc.) come out blank. Would love to have this feature soon, as it yields better results than Octane's native denoiser.

Just checking back. Would really love to see Open Image Denoising implemented for all denoised AOVs in Houdini/Solaris as soon as possible, since it is much faster than Octane AI denoising and yields better results. Hoping so much. Thanks OTOY for all your hard work!

Hey there!
Sorry for the delayed response!
So technically you can kind of already do this using the output AOVs, but to do this for every pass certainly would be a fair bit of work.
Will pass on your suggestion to the core devs.
