Replacing jpgs with tiffs

Hello, 

I have made scan using Jpgs but later on I’ve saved proper rebalanced Tiffs from Raw files. Is there a way to replace Jpgs with Tiffs set for texturing? It is important because I want to export them undistorted (inner region) with cameras and I don’t want to redo the calculation of 1500 photos. 

Thank you in advance!

Can’t imagine how that would work other than using XMPs and then you’d probably have to rename all of them.

Might take longer than another calculation though…

Hello Gotz, 

OK I add tiffs to the project but would be great to have an option in RC when you mass select jpgs and remove them with one click. 
Instead when I select all of them I have to click “disable the image for further processing” but I don’t want to do that 1500 times. 

Cheers!

You can open your .rcproj file in a text editor (I like editpad for stuff like this).

Do a batch replacement of .jpg with .tiff. Also change the path if you like.

Save.

Ah excellent, quick and easy!

I wondered if that was possible…

Thank you Greg this works!

Yet there is no 16bit tiff output, that’s the worst thing for vfx pipeline, as I wanted to be able to export along with cameras undistorted tiffs for further work (mari) etc.
