I am working with darktable as an RAW image manipulation program and the latest addition was Lua scripting for darktable. With this I am trying to automate the pano (and HDR--&gt; LDR) generation out of darktable. I had a complete script up and running, but now I have the problem that either the hugin tools crash (fov &lt;0, from the next versions ppa), or pto_gen is missing (in the nightly ppa). Are there good reasons not to include pto_gen in the nightlies? If pto_gen cannot be included in the nightlies, is it included in the source so I can build it myself? I know that theoretically, I could construct a pto file just with Lua, but it seems like a lot of work. Maybe I am just overlooking an easy way to build a pto without pto_gen. Any help appreciated.

Thank you! </pre> Yaoxin Song 2013-05-16T03:17:09 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.ptx/33189 <pre>Hello All, I regularly check for changes to the hugin repository, and do this by pointing my browser at &lt;http://sourceforge.net/projects/hugin/&gt;. On this web page I select "code" and in the menu I choose "mercurial", and from there I can look at the recent patches to hugin or any of the branches. This morning when I tried this, selecting "code" didn't give any choices and dropped me into the svn repo from 2010! I know Sourceforge have been re-jigging things of late, but it would seem that they have got this wrong. If the location of the hg repo has changed, I would still would expect the web page to provide access via the "code" menu. Cheers, </pre> Terry Duell 2013-05-15T23:17:31 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.ptx/33175 <pre>Hi all, Sourceforge have 'upgraded' the panotools project on sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/panotools/ Mercurial repositories have moved, you can now find the libpano13 code here: hg clone http://hg.code.sf.net/p/panotools/libpano13 So if you have an existing checkout you can either rebase it by editing the .hg/hgrc file, or just fetch a fresh one. The old Mercurial repository will continue to exist, but is now read-only. I took the opportunity to migrate the other panotools projects from Subversion to Mercurial (hooray!), these are: Panotools::Script - perl module for manipulating Hugin .pto projects GIMP plugin - A GIMP panotools plugin, this needs to maintenance ptfilter - Photoshop filters for panotools MPRemap - Java moving panoramas remapping If there is anything I'm missing, please let me know. e.g. I haven't migrated the old libpano12 binary-compatible library - Does anyone want this? </pre> Bruno Postle 2013-05-13T21:01:37 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.ptx/33163 <pre>Hello, I was trying to use PTBatcherGUI from the 2013.0 codebase and I noticed that the toolbar is not visible and I can not find how to make it visible. I deleted ~/Library/Saved Application State/net.sourcforge.hugin.* and ~/Library/Preferences/hugin Preferences. I tried with the beta 1 from Harry and noticed the same problem. My main platform is 10.8 but the problem is the same on my 10.6 virtual machine. With the 2012.0 build from sourceforge, the toolbar is here. Did I miss something and the toolbar is gone for a reason or do I really have a problem ? Thanks, Matthieu </pre> ___matthieu___ 2013-05-11T14:02:38 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.ptx/33159 <pre>In ubuntu 12.04 LTS with hugin-2012.0.0+dfsg-0ubuntu1~precise installed, somehow hugin didn't work, it got many messages of Field of View must be positive Bad params And couldn't finish the step of "align all images". Any clue? (Same input images worked fine with hugin in Windows.) Thanks. </pre> Jerry Wei 2013-05-10T20:16:05 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.ptx/33157 <pre>Greetings, I have been a user of enfuse since 2008, and I find it a great tool, especially when there are moving objects in my scene. I’ve used it extensively for my first three books, and right now I’m working on my fourth coffee table photo book using enfuse. But I’ve hit some problems which I have difficulty overcoming. I started my book project on April 30th, and it is due to my publisher on June 1st, and so I am getting desperate. My current book has subjects — brightly colored lights taken at dusk and night — where it is very important to retain as much of the color and saturation of highlights as possible. However, it is also important to avoid plugging the shadows too much — printers don’t like large areas of black with lots of ink, and in general it is bad photographic practice having large areas of a photo without texture. In the past, the dynamic range of my subjects were not so great that this was much of a problem. I generally use alpha masks extensively, masking out areas of overexposure of any one color channel, while also masking out the darkest parts. I do make sure that I have a broad enough range of photos that I have well-exposed detail from the brightest highlights to the darkest shadows. To preserve my highlights, I am attempting to use the l-star gray projector, but am finding lots of green dots in the shadows. I’ve searched through these forums for an answer to this, but I haven’t found a specific answer to avoid this. Also, I find that l-star is often unpredictable: usually it plugs my shadows but sometimes it does not. What do you think may cause plugging in some situations and not in others? Now, I usually avoid the shadow plugging by manually blending together an “l-star” with an “average”, excluding the shadows from the l-star. But with the green dot problem, I find there are too many to detect reliably. I am running OS X Lion on my Mac, and am running enfuse build 4.0-753b534c819d. Now, I read that enfuse 4.1.1 has some great features, and specifically has the pl-star gray projector which is designed to work with profiles with a gamma imposed. I assume that earlier versions of enfuse also wants a linear gamma for many of its projectors? I did not notice this caveat with early version of enfuse, but I noticed it in the version 4.0 manual. I haven’t had much success with blending linear images: it does not appear that Photoshop 32 bit images are supported (enfuse just outputs black images) and 16 bit images lack shadow detail, and so linear gamma tends to block up the shadows excessively. I was unable to find enfuse 4.1.1 for Mac OS X, so I pulled out my old Windows XP PC, which I haven’t used since 2008, and attempted to run 4.1.1 on that. But it always crashes. Now, Microsoft is having me install hundreds of updates, so perhaps it will eventually run. Is there something that I need to know about the operating system requirements of the Windows implementation? If there is an OS X build of enfuse 4.1.1, that would be delightful! Where might I get it? If not, I would like to get the PC version running. Once I do have 4.1.1 running, what are the best practices for what I am trying to do? I am seeking well-colored tones from almost the deepest shadows to almost the brightest highlights. Thanks! </pre> Mark Abeln 2013-05-10T18:03:17 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.ptx/33150 <pre>Hi group, the hugin repository contains a lot of programs. Most of them are used by the normal workflow. But there are also some program with are obsolete, duplicates or superseded. This affects the following programs: * matchpoint: supersedes by cpfind * PTBatcher: PTBatcherGUI provides the same functionality * nona_gui: Hugin itself is only using nona. Nona_gui provides only a GUI for select the project file to remap. * autopano-noop.sh: wrapper around autopano-sift to show a warning if autopano-sift is not installed. This is obsolete now with cpfind the default control point detector. Is there somebody using these programs? If nobody objects these programs will be removed for the next release.

Yes, I know that a, b, c refer to radial distortions, d, e are an offset, and g, t refer to shear (and Va, Vb, Vc have something todo with vignetting). However since I'm trying to convert some other lens model (the one from the Matlab Calibration Toolbox) into the Hugin one (as good as possible), I really need the math! Here's what I have found out so far: * x gets translated by (-width/2), y by (-height/2). Presumably it's here that d and e come into play - but is it x_new=x-width/2-e or x_new=x-width/2+e(i.e. does e get added or subtracted?) * x_new then gets scaled by s=min(height,width)/2 so that x_newer=xnew/s * Next comes radial distortion such that x_newest=(a*r^3+b*r^2+c*r+(1-a-b-c))*x_newer, with r=sqrt(x_newer^2+y_newer^2). Presumably here we're also going to deal with shear, so g and t will probably come into play here. But how? * then scale and translation are undone again, and I can get the undistorted image values for (x,y) by sampling the image at position (x_newest*s+width/2,y_newest*s+height/2) (and here, again, d and e might come into play - or not.) So, how are d, e, g, t applied? Any help deeply appreciated Sven PS: oh, and if anyone knows what to make of Va etc...? </pre> Sven Utcke 2013-05-07T13:14:49 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.ptx/33114 <pre>Hi, I'm selling my Clauss Rodeon VR Head ST https://dr-clauss.de/en/foto-studiotechnik-3/rodeon-vr-head-series/item/210-rodeon-vr-head-st email me with an offer. thanks, Jeffrey </pre> Jeffrey Martin 2013-05-03T12:50:27 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.ptx/33109 <pre>Hi, I have some images that are a single row panorama (indoor images with tables, chairs, and a stage). cpfind is finding some control points between images that aren't connected and makes a mess of the layout (even turning some images upside-down).

Thanks </pre> RLel 2013-04-25T20:28:16 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.ptx/33061 <pre>It's something like 6 years I'm trying harder and harder to get the best results possible with panorama photography; by now I achieved significant improvements both in experience and equipment: thanks to a robotic pano head, now taking outside panorama is easy enough for me. However i'm rather disappointed that despite of all, when doing interiors, *my panoramas are still affected by small errors*. I did calibration of my lens, i carefully placed nodal point, i personally wrote the program that moves my robotic head, but i still have to optimize because the head has an angle uncertainty of something around 0.1-0.2 deg. When i use alignment through optimization of CPs, no matter how many point i have, there are lots of small errors (example with ~9000 http://www.stareat.it/viewers/pan0.swf?panoSrc=http://www.stareat.it/img/tropicalZooPano1.jpg&amp;tesselation=100 ) I came to the conclusion that only two ways to overcome this, are 1. to buy a more precise robotic head and avoid alignment through optimization of CPs at all 2. to do small adjustment to alignment manually, somehow Given that i would happily avoid spending lots of money for a new head at the moment,* I'm pretty surprised that Hugin is so much behind if we speak of preview/manual alignment*. Now: I'm a professional developer and I have a couple ideas on how to use GPU for a nearly perfect realtime preview allowing us to do small adjustments by hand, but i'd need the exact same formula hugin uses to obtain consistent results. I now I could dig into Hugin sources (and i surely will) but i was wondering if someone more used to it could just point me/lay it down simple, to kickstart me. *E.g. : given a unit sphere and equirectangular projection, A and B being the yaw and pitch angle of a generic point Ps on its surface, Ya and Pi being yaw and pitch of center of an already corrected and placed image, X and Y being the generic point Pi on the image, what is the exact function that maps A, B to X, Y (taking into account all the other parameters i didn't mention, too...).* I mean: I'm not even sure Hugin does it always passing by equirectangular projection, but you got the point. In the meanwhile, if someone has other tips for me to better align my images, advices are more than welcome... Thanks in advance. </pre> Giancarlo Todone 2013-04-24T07:46:40 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.ptx/33059 <pre>Hi. After reading the stream about Panini I thought I'd give it a try in Hugin. I'm using "2013.0.0.6290:901c5fd7f02c built by Matthieu DESILE". Under Interface I've selected Expert. On the stitching tab I selected Panini General for the Projection.

How do you use the Hugin interface to set these parameters? </pre> Donald Johnston 2013-04-24T03:02:28 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.ptx/33055 <pre>Many artists, knowing the principles of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 point perspective, to the extent illustrated in http://awlaux.deviantart.com/art/Five-Pt-Perspective-Tutorial-96369849, can create a drawing that accurately enough approximates the desire perspective. Does anyone have any insights or suggestions how might one develop or approach developing an intuitive ability to use/create a Panini like perspective or a panoramic drawing ? The only suggestion about this the first illustration in http://hugin.sourceforge.net/docs/manual/The_General_Panini_Projection.html which suggests that a Panini perspective is three one point perspectives joined at their peripheries ? May one could use the Hugin software with varying parametrs to develop similar line drawings, and form that develop the intuition I seek ?? </pre> Michael Fuerst 2013-04-22T23:47:55 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.ptx/33054 <pre> I've got two panoramic images, but the two panoramic images have different focal and resolution.
