I've always checked my renders in progress by right clicking on a filename in the Smedge GUI History log and choosing 'view frame' (http://www.whitneydigital.com/viewFrame.png), but in 2016, I get an error which among other things says the file does not exist, even though it does exist. (http://www.whitneydigital.com/viewFrameError.png). Do I need to adjust a setting somewhere? Thanks.

Hi Doug. You need to set the path to the executable for the frame viewer application in the SmedgeGUI options. The option is in the Product Options, and must be set for each product currently.
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks,

I see a field for the command line, but can't find a path to executable:

you would add the path in front of the "fcheck" part of the command line for each of the View Frame Commandline and View Sequence Commandline fields. For example:
"C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2016\bin\fcheck.exe" $(Note.Local.Enquote)
Edit: Note that I missed the quote marks, because the path has spaces in it! This is the path for the single frame command line. You can do the same for the view sequence command line.

Thanks. fcheck launches now, but it immediately quits. Do I need to adjust any of the other fields in the dialogue box from my jpg above?

I'm not sure what else could be going on. One thing you can try is to look at the History.log from the SmedgeGui process, and finding the full command line that is being started. Then try copying that command line into a Command Prompt window on the machine to see what you get.
I can be available to remote connect and help get this configured if you need. Please contact to arrange a time for that. Thank you,

Hi Robin,
Working on a small project in Maya 2016.5 using MR. I have several previous version of fcheck and maya installed from 2014 to maya 2017.
For some reason the 2016.0 Smedge GUI isn't working for me but maybe I'm creating a type somewhere..
System>SmedgeGUI Options>Product Options>Product selected to "Maya"
default "View Frame Commandline" is set to: fcheck $(Note.Local.Enquote)
Doesn't work nor can I point to the fcheck.exe which in this case wants to be Maya2017\...\bin\fcheck.exe
So I supply based on this post
Modified "View Frame Commandline" is set to:"C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2017\bin\fcheck.exe" $(Note.Local.Enquote)
or
Modified "View Frame Commandline" is set to:"C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2017\bin\fcheck.exe $(Note.Local.Enquote)"
or
Modified "View Frame Commandline" is set to:C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2017\bin\fcheck.exe $(Note.Local.Enquote)
But the fcheck frame viewer won't launch over a finished packet..

Oh I'm rendering to 32bit EXR which I realize isn't supported by Fcheck....
I'll test again tomorrow with .iff. Maybe thats the culprit but don't know for sure.

The fist command is the one you want:
"Path/to/fcheck.exe" $(Note.Local.Enquote)
It does seem that the EXR issue is probably your issue, because fcheck does not support them. Please let me know if you need me to remote connect and help out further. Thank you,
