Yes the straighten function has always failed with non-panoramic scenes (i.e. it doesn't work unless there is a spread of yaw values). This has been the same for the last few releases, it isn't going to change soon unless somebody gets annoyed enough to fix it.

OK, so could it be at least disabled in these situations when using
the assistant mode?

It needs fixing, but if there isn't a fix available and the bug isn't any worse than with previous releases it isn't going to delay 2010.2.0.

So I should have taken one more photo with no exposure correction, right? I took a +2 EV and -3 EV photos. I'm quite new to HDR, so the problem might be very likely at my side.

I'm the wrong person to be giving HDR advice, but my recent experience was ok with -2, 0, +2 sets (though I still prefer exposure fusion to tonemapped HDR).

I'm guessing you are using Windows with a Russian codepage? Hugin works fine with non-ascii characters on OS X, Windows and Linux, but apparently not on Windows with Russian/Czech character sets.

Czech Republic is in Central Europe, so we don't use Russian character set. We use CP-1250 or ISO-8859-2, these are standard letters with some added like ěščřžýáíé. The same letters are used in Poland, Sovakia, Slovenia, Croatia and other countries.

We don't actually know why there is a problem, Japanese is ok, but Czech isn't. It is some weird Windows thing.

My idea for a quick fix is to use short path (like C:/DOCUME~1/ADMINI~1/LOCALS~1/Temp/) for image files. This should fix the problem at least for CE languages.

Quick fixes can turn up all sorts of problems. Once we have 2010.2.0 out of the way I expect there will be snapshots of the trunk where this bug can be resolved one way or another.
