[cuegui] Allow previewing checkpointed frames #1491

Closed DiegoTavares closed 3 months ago

DiegoTavares commented 3 months ago

Some Digital Content Creation tools (DCCs) provide a preview of the images being rendered using a local server. This feature allows capturing a preview on a tmp directory for displaying using the configured viewer.

For this to work, the host running the frame being previewed needs to have the port being used by the DCC accessible. The hostname is used as the URL and the port is captured from the frame logs, as DCCs with this feature usually output the port in the first lines of the log file.

One last change on this PR is to make sure both Preview and View Output options are only displayed when the viewer cmd pattern is configured on cuegui.yaml.
