thanks kfj, a better GUI is always great.
what david wrote about pto not working is only with specific image
formats? I'm guessing with JPG the template.pto file still works?
Although Thomas once showed me how i could do my stitching via the GUI,
that method appeared a lot slower and more complicated for me. so after
that test i forgot how to do that and went back to my cmd files.
however, i never solved and am thus missing the exif data mapped to the
output image in my CMD script and for that reason alone i would accept
the extra time the gui costs...if i can run multiple instances of the
gui simultanious.
If that's possible, what would be the best step-by-step method for me to
try stitching thousands of sets of pictures?
if somebody can help me out with that i would love to try Hugin 1.2 new gui.
the way i work now has little input from me after creating the folder
and file set and can keep my pc busy for weeks, depending on how many
days are processed without a windows update that i forgot to block ;)
my setup consists (WIN7/10/11) of sets of dated folders (left and
right), with jpg images numbered from 1 onwards.
On another disk I create a list of dated folders with each a CMD file
and a PTO file.
the CMD file is simple, it checks if the images exists and with
nona/enblend it stitches them together with use of the pto file, ups the
file number with one and tries again.
i also have another script that starts one after another CMD file in the
dated folders...just because i was fed up with starting each day
seperately.
The real great part of the cmd files is that i can run up to 3
simultanious cmd scripts within my processors 8 core capacity, making it
almost 3 times as speedy that one gui running one folder set.
so for me, after setting up i only need to double click once per cmd
instance and leave my pc alone.
how would i go about 'automatically' stitching all files in the folders.
possibly switching to the next folder set when it runs out of images.
possibly running more than one gui instance/more than one folder set at
once?
who ever thought of that :)

So the new Lux can't open PTO files anymore?

Dear all!
I've finally released a new lux version, after a lot of work on the
program. Linux users already had 'tasters' of what's now in version
1.2.0, there are two big changes:
- I wrote a new GUI using Dear ImGui
- I am now using OpenImageIO for image input
The new GUI should make it much easier to handle the large amount of
options and settings, and pretty much everything can now be done
graphically, rather than having to resort to command line options. The
new GUI also has plenty of tool tips, so one can approach the
functionality without having to switch between the program and the
documentation all the time. I hope this helps to make the program more
attractive. The mouse and keyboard commands are unchanged.
Using OpenImageIO for image input pulls in a lot of other libraries
via plugins and linkage, so the number of dependencies has grown
dramatically, but I think it's worth it. lux can now open a large
variety of image files, including camera RAWs (using libraw, which is
similar to dcraw) and videos as sequences of single images (using
ffmpeg). Some of the image formats which can now be visualized are
quite new (e.g. HEIF/HEIC ), and they were one of the reasons why I
switched to OIIO - the newer formats weren't supported by libvigraimpex.
Under the hood there's the same fast rendering engine using
multithreaded SIMD code, the only change is that automatic rendering
quality for animations is now on by default. And, needless to say,
there were many small bug fixes and tweaks, hopefully all for the better!
There are binaries available <https://bitbucket.org/kfj/pv/downloads>
for Linux (in AppImage format) Windows (portable and installable
version) and for intel-based macs - a version for mac silicon will
hopefully materialize soon, until then, mac silicon users can run the
intel code with Rosetta, which works quite well. Enjoy!
