layered exr crashes photoshop with ProEXR

[alias_marks]

Hello there, I've had this problem for the past couple months and can't seem to find a solution out there on the inter-webs. Any pointers would be much appreciated.

 

I save a layered exr file form Max with about 10 different passes. All saves fine and opens well in photoshop until I try to save multiple multi-matte passes and vrayextratex passes.

 

If I save those types of passes with the exr and try to open in photoshop, I get a hard crash, and photoshop CS5 goes kapoot.

 

I've tried the latest 64 bit exr plugin from fnord with no success.

 

Thanks for any help.

 

Mike

what does it means goes kaput? D'you have to reinstall PS?

May be you could share the problematic file with fnord support?

Sorry for off-top:

Via what profile do you usually open proexrfiles?

1. Don't have to re-install photoshop, but PS crashes and pops up an error saying it's going to close. It restarts fine though.

2. I will indeed share a problem file with fnord, and see if they can help, good thought.

3. I'm usually opening with whatever the default is, sRGB I believe.

A similar problem for me too - if I attempt to open a [large] exr, seems to be anything over 72 million pixels ProExr causes Photoshop (CS5) to crash. I'm thinking there is possibly an upper size limit, and the number of passes x resolution is exceeding this limit? Maybe render to vrimg and split out to multiple EXRs?
