just guessing but perhaps the cli conversion is applying settings to the photos that the direct conversion dt->gimp is not. can you direct dt-cli to not apply *any* modules? or check it the dt->gimp conversion provides an xmp file which show what modules have been applied? I don't see any way to specify modules except by supplying a matching xmp file which maybe you can script. or maybe it is not possible to match the dt->gimp conversion. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode ___________________________________________________________________________ darktable developer mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-dev+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
