Hey Pablo, are there any plans on getting Blender's lighting and camera system to use physical values? It would be great to have Blender's Lighting system up to Industry Standards and be a lot more deterministic to work with.

I made a post about it on Right Click Select - blender.community/c/rightclickselect/4z9V/

Hello Pablo, how about adding not only pixels to the render settings, but also inches, centimeters, millimeters, etc. to the render resolution?

while this makes some conceptual sense, pixels are blender's internal way of handling renders, the indivisible amount of data samples turn into. Those units, on the other hand, depend on the settings of the output medium, be it a screen, a printer, a projector, etc.

how are you going to ensure a video is 5 inches across when a 4k screen fits on a phone, and you can get a 1080p plasma TV?

it would require a data type and video format that doesn't yet exist!

Hola Pablo! the bcon2022 was amazing, i'm still catching up to all the content, i hope you had a good time during those days

My question is regarding Asset Library project, do you know when or if is it going to be possible to add rigged characters as one asset?

Currently there's no straightforward/clean way to do that (if you turn a collection instance real, it just turns all the bones visible and breaks a lot of stuff) Also if you have any tricks for this i'd appreciate it a lot!

Hey Pablo! How are you? :) I don't have a question this time, I just wanted to say thank you for the fantastic Blender Conference. I had a wonderful time in Amsterdam, met amazing people and listened to fascinating talks. And I have to say that the organization was top-notch. So, a huge thank you to the whole team that made this possible.

Hey Pablo! Are there plans to start streaming the Blender.Today LIVE on both Youtube and Odysee in the same time? So people that are trying to avoid Youtube could reply in comments...

BTW there is this if you don't want to see it on youtube: yewtu.be/watch ( Just checked the livestream works )

Hey Pablo! Is anyone working on being able to anchor the simulation of things to moving objects to cancel out the movement? I'm animating a movie with hair sim. But I cannot use it when they drive a car since the motion of the car throws the hair too much backwards. I wonder if there is a way to offset the center of the world for the simulation to be relative to the car to cancel out it's motion. Or maybe I'm overthinking everything.
