Indeed I get a huge lot of error messages similat to this one: GIMP: Calling error for procedure 'gimp-procedural-db-proc-info': Procedure 'plug-in-gauss-iir-Iterator' not found However, testing this with the Gaussian blur filter, I got what I expected, i.e. an animation with a varying blur.

[Gimp-user] Having serious problems with profiling my monitor
Last year, I managed to profile my Samsung 226CW monitor using an Eye-One LT under Fedora 7 and the argylcms programs. When I told gimp what the display profile was, the results looked plausible. At that time I was using an early version of gimp 2.4. But my monitor dimmed somewhat, and I wanted to redo the calibration/profiling. But it doesn't seem to be working. I also tried the same thing with a laptop running Ubuntu 8.04, and had similar problems. The process produces a calibration (look up table) which is loaded into the video card and also a profile which a program such as gimp can use to tell the display how to interpret colors. There are two ways to tell gimp about the display profile, but it doesn't seem to matter which I use. What happens on both machines is that gimp seems to be negating the calibration (look up table) in the video card and then perhaps applying some profiling to the result. So what I get with a gray scale is the whatever tint the screen had without the look up table loaded; red-magenta for the Fedora machine and blue-cyan for the laptop display. So either I keep doing something entirely idiotic, or gimp color management is doing the wrong thing. The versions of gimp I've been having this problem with are 2.4% and up. My current Fedora version is 2.6.3. Supposedly Eye of Gnome can also use a display profile, and it in fact it doesn't show such an effect. The gray scales look plausible, but they might anyway, just with the calibration loaded in the video card and no profiling. But, if Eye of Gnome allows for color management, I would expect it to say something about it and possibly allow some configuration, and I can't see any indication that it is doing that. Is there some other method independent of gimp to check whether the profiling is working? Any suggestions would be appreciated. -- Leonard Evens Mathematics Department, Northwestern University ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

I don't know whether this is correct or not, since I haven't used 'apply varying' at all before. For 'filter all layers', when I use 'dog' filter, most of my layers become empty. But, I have to mention -- this function never worked correctly for me at all. It was always complaining and behaving weirdly, whether in gimp 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5 or 2.6.

I suspect this is because it doesn't bother to set the colormap for each frame, and my source image is indexed. If I convert to RGB first, this doesn't happen. It does display the last frame rather than the first. Also, it doesn't bother to copy the icc-profile parasite, so the resulting images are displayed with wrong colors.
