If they aren't used in any node or in any incoming exr, simply importing
the script (rather than opening it) used to fix this (short of using a
text editor to remove the offending lines).

I spent a good few hours cleaning up a script the other day to find I
had a read node in it that was adding back the corrupted channels
every time I saved. (pre 6.3v8)

Strangely, those channels pop up again after setting them to none.
I think my only solution is to either delete all channels past the
first four via script, or just remake all of the shuffle copy
nodes, which would probably be the best situation.
Thanks for the help,

Prior to the pesky "virus" channels like redguard for which
the 6.3v8 solution is aimed, I've found I've always been able
to remove unused channels (even beyond the standard four in a
layer) by making sure no node pulldown menu is referring to
that channel (assuming it's not in the file read in by the
Read node either), then restart Nuke and you should find it's
not in any channel dropdown list any more.
If that doesn't do it, another possibility is that you have
exported a gizmo referring to some channel you don't need, and
when you create the gizmo it's dynamically adding the channels
back to the script.

Thanks Nathan,
I guess on 6.3v2 I'm out of luck then.

From the 6.3v8 release notes:
"A new preference has been added to suppress unwanted
channels (Preferences > Script IO > Suppress bad
channels). When enabled, any channels that are not
referenced in the script are discarded when the script
is saved."
Note that you must enable it before loading scripts
for it to take effect.

Hey guys,
Do you guys know of a script to remove unused channels?
I'm finding myself with a comp where over time I've
attached (via shuffleCopy) a few different Read nodes
to the same layers.
As a result, I have more than 4 channels attached to
layers, even though they are not represented in the
read sources themselves.
It would be great to just wipe out the channels that
don't really exist.
Otherwise, I can just create those Shuffle Copy nodes
again.
bumpNormals.red
bumpNormals.green
bumpNormals.blue
bumpNormals.alpha
bumpNormals.r
bumpNormals.g
bumpNormals.someOtherChannelName
bumpNormals.a
Win7 x64 Nuke 6.3
Thanks!
Ryan
