This page provides information on Pdplayer's integration with Autodesk Maya.

 

## **Overview**

---

Pdplayer can very easily be integrated with Autodesk Maya to view single images or sequences.

 

## **Integration**

---

Open the Preferences dialog in Maya and in the Applications Category choose Chaos Player to be used as the default software for viewing images and sequences. You should also put "%f --fcheck --range=%s-%e/%b --fps=%r%" in each Optional Flags field in order to specify the file name. 

 

For "Sequence Viewing Applications" you can add the --play_forward flag so that Chaos Player automatically starts the playback. Option flags example: "%f --fcheck --range=%s-%e/%b --fps=%r% --play_forward".
