Drive displacement with rsdistance?

Hello, using the latest versions of Maya / Redshift does anyone know if it's theoretically possible to drive displacement using a redshift distance node? I can't get it working, I assume because displacement needs to be calculated before disatance?

Retain materials after unpack USD

Hi all,
I'm not the most experienced with houdini / solaris but I have a job where I'm loading in some big USD files, I need to deform the geometry which I seem to be unable to do within solaris, so I use a lopimport - unpackusd in OBJ level which allows me to deform the imported USD.
I'd like to just render from OBJ but the lop loses materials when unpacked & I've tried every different option within the unpack to keep materials.

I've tried deforming after the lop then piping back into a sub-layer in solaris but solaris seems not to recognise the geometry after it's deformed.

Any help appreciated, there must be a way to copy the materials via an attribute transfer or something? I do not have access to original materials, only the USD files & textures.

No processing on photos

Every android phone I've had (and I'm not getting apple) I take a photo and it looks good, then does a quick "processing" and puts on to much contrast and ruins the photo. Right now I've a vivo x200 ultra. Is there any way I can disable this or a different camera app that doesn't have it?
