Monkey, I much appreciate your software. I like it because I like big panoramas ... and the speedup is welcome.
For big panoramas there's another issue: Geometrical optimization is slow. I developed a fork for the libpano library that I called fastPTOptimizer. For large panoramas the speedup factor for optimization can be 100 or more. I integrated both your multiblend and my fastPTOptimizer into a "development version" of Hugin. Multiblend is now the default enblend-like program (in the GUI is still written "enblend" but you can see that multiblend is used by choosing Preferences / Programs). Only the CMakeLists.txt files are not updated so that Multiblend is automatically integrated because I'm not yet so familiar with creating files for CMake. My version of Hugin is here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/huginplusplus/files/development/ Monkey schrieb am Samstag, 10.
