Key Updates in Reality 5.4 SP2

New Integrations and Versions

  • Reality Hub 1.6, NODOS 1.2, and Unreal Engine 5.4.4 are now integrated into this release, bringing significant enhancements.

Subgraphs in NODOS 1.2

  • The introduction of subgraphs allows nodegraphs to be collapsed into single nodes, making them easier to organize and read. This feature transforms nodegraphs into a more streamlined and manageable structure.

Media I/O Core Architecture

  • NODOS 1.2 features a redesigned media I/O core architecture. This update consolidates gamma, color space, and pixel format conversions, streamlining video I/O processes across various platforms. The first practical implementation of this is evident in the new AJA IN/OUT nodes, which combine subgraphs and the media I/O core.

Open Source Accessibility

Collaborative and Performance Enhancements

Undo/Redo Functionality

  • Reality Hub now supports undo and redo functions while collaborating in real-time with other users on the nodegraph.

Partial Node Updates

  • Nodegraph performance has been significantly improved for Unreal projects with extensive numbers of project actors, reducing system load.

AJA Node Updates

  • Updates to the AJA node include improved performance and a redesigned user interface. Double-clicking now reveals more detailed node contents for better usability. Firmware and driver updates for AJA are also included.
Improved Video I/O and Workflow Features

Enhanced Interlaced Detection

  • Improved interlaced detection minimizes video I/O issues, particularly aiding users in regions like the USA by eliminating the need for workaround solutions.

Auto-Resize Feature

  • Automatic resizing has been implemented to simplify and optimize workflows.

Live Configuration Mode

  • The live configuration mode has been refined for enhanced real-time performance. In this mode, modifications to the nodegraph are restricted to prevent errors during live production. The nodegraph is designed to be intuitive, minimizing user mistakes.
