The queue is only loaded at startup of PTBatcherGUI. So I added code
to watch the queue file and to load it again when changed outside. All
changes within PTBatcherGUI are done in memory and then saved back to
disk. I won't change the existing design so a done this workaround.

I agree with you. We should think if we need PTBatcher really.

Some comment: PTBatcherGUI supports the following command line
parameter:

PTBatcherGUI [switches] [project1.pto [prefix1]] [project2.pto
[prefix2]]
adds the projects to the queue (attention: no -a switch as in
PTBatcher)

switches
-b runs batch immediately
-p  sets option "run batch projects in parallel"
-d  sets option "delete *.pto files after stitching"
-o  sets option "overwrite previous files without asking"
-s  sets option "shutdown computer after batch is complete"
-v  sets option "show verbose output when processing projects"

I'm working on it, it needs some testing if all cases works. I will
commit it in the next days.

2009-04-26 Thread tom_a_spa...@yahoo.com.au

costing of the hardware is currently the show stopper for us that want
to start doing panoramic videos
and there is no software that can take a video file (like mp4),
extract the fisheye/Equirectangular and convert them to flash video
file
currently it a three step process as in 
http://gardengnomesoftware.com/tutorial.php?movid=video
missing is the extract the images from the video file

the GardenGome timelaspe panorama video is shot with a normal camera
the kpano one was done with a ladybug from

[hugin-ptx] Re: Layout panorama model (GSoC)

2009-04-26 Thread Tom Sharpless

Bravo, James!

This is something obviously useful that for some reason none of the
stitchers I use provides.  I think the most important target is
focusing control point finding on areas of actual overlap -- that
should not only eliminate the stupid impossible CPs we sometimes get,
but more important, should dramatically cut CP generation time for
every pano, and probably improve CP quality too.

I concur with Bruno that the layout model should be explicitly
spherical, and accommodate the various clever schemes panographers use
to cover the sphere (e.g. with an 8mm fisheye, "up 15 deg, 3 around;
turn 60 deg; down 15 deg, 3 around; down 90 deg, 1" ).  Some people
rotate the camera to put a corner of the frame near the pole, so you
need to cater for the full Y,P,R coordinates, too.  Of course there is
no need to burden long-lens users with all that, to them it can just
look like a rectangular array :->.

Regards, Tom

[hugin-ptx] Re: Stereographic video

2009-04-26 Thread Tom Sharpless

My 2 cents:

The Dizzy video frames were almost certainly shot in a spherical
mirror with the lens pointing straight down, which would give the
"little planet" view without any processing.  Probably from a moving
car, whose nose and tail have been hidden under the vertical "stage"
on which the performer performs.

The panos on the GardenGnome site, on the other hand, are true
panoramic movies, and very impressive.

Now, is anyone yet able to make  3-D (that is, stereoscopic)
panoramas? or panoramic movies??  That _WOULD_BE_WAY_COOL_

This is what I don't understand about the existing design.  Surely 
if the queue exists as a file or files on disk, then all you need to 
do is modify the queue files.  The queue processor shouldn't try to 
keep the 'canonical' queue list in memory it should just refer to 
the file all the time.  This way multiple applications can add 
projects to the queue without needing to communicate with another 
process.

>Are there user (especially on linux) which are using PTBatcherGUI to

>ptbatcher?

I'm not sure we need PTBatcher to be an entire command-line queue 
manager if PTBatcherGUI already exists.  Much more useful would be a 
tool for simply adding projects to the queue, `PTBatcher -a` crashes 
when I try this:

PTBatcher -a hugin.pto
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x096ee4d8 ***
Aborted

..but the same thing can now be done with your fixed PTBatcherGUI, 
so I wonder if PTBatcher command-line is needed at all.

The other thing remaining now is that the 'Save project and send to 
batch' button should launch PTBatcherGUI, probably this is what most 
users would expect.

Yes seems to work now, I can start PTBatcherGUI, add projects in the 
GUI, stitch them, add projects by running PTBatcherGUI with a 
project as an argument.  The single instance stuff works ok, though 
it did once hang with no error.

I always thought that was weird.  As of rev 3805, Hugin will now compute the
errors for the control points on project load.  I placed this in a separate
function that can be called in other places as well (say when ever an image
is moved or a CP is modified). Right now, it computes the errors for all of
the control points.  I am guessing this could be enhanced to only update
particular CPs that would have changed.

Yuv replied on the svn command. You can also do, from the hugin folder:
   svn up -r 3736

Have you managed to produce a backtrace?

I'm no expert on this; what I usually do is

gdb hugin

and then: "run"

when hugin segfaults you can type "bt" and will get a backtrace which
will be more helpful (hopefully)

[hugin-ptx] Re: Hugin segfault on exposure optimisation

2009-04-26 Thread kevin

Milan,

I just downloaded your image and pto files and tested with my versions
of hugin, I'm getting the seg fault between the versions like I did on
my files.  hugin 3736 works fine and it will optimize the
photometrics, version 3757 and it seg faults.

Ok, here's a test of two images that is causing the seg fault:

http://www.bluelavalamp.net/hugin/1.jpg
http://www.bluelavalamp.net/hugin/2.jpg
http://www.bluelavalamp.net/hugin/1-2.pto

With that pto file and version 3736, if I just click on the exposure
tab and then Optimize Now, it runs fine.  When it's loaded into
version 3757 it seg faults, here's the bottom of the seg fault:

As for the question of did I compile them with the same compiler and
library versions, maybe not.  I keep my system updated with slamd64 -
current and I know that the 3736 version was compiled on 03/15/09 and
the 3757 was compiled on 03/24/09 (I used checkinstall to make the
packages).  From the slamd64 changelog there were a lot of updates on
03/17/09, so those versions were probably compiled against different
library versions.

Can I pull a specific SVN version out?  I can try recompiling the 3736
version to see if it suddenly doesn't work.  If that happens then it's
pointing to some different library that I updated from slamd64.

I have uploaded the project files (images + pto + mk) to a temporary
directory on my website:

http://www.milan-knizek.net/files/tmp/hugin_segfault.tar.gz

I will recompile hugin with debugging symbols in Ubuntu 9.04 and let all
know (however, last time I did so, hugin worked perfectly, just very
slowly...).

That's strange, because I don't see any change to photometric
optimization between these two particular revisions. Did you compiled
both of them with the same compiler and library versions? Anyway
backtrace from GDB could help if you can get it.

[hugin-ptx] Re: Hugin segfault on exposure optimisation

2009-04-26 Thread kevin

Well now both panos are seg faulting.  I added some controls point,
did some optimizations and then went back to the photometric
optimization and it's seg faults every time.

I download the SVN version and make packages, luckily I kept around
the older packages so I just went back and found the point where it
works and where it starts seg faulting.

SVN 3736 is good for both panos
SVN 3757 seg faults for both

This is using the same pto files, only difference is the version of
hugin.

2009-04-26 Thread kevin

I'm getting the same seg fault.  I'm running slamd64 and it only seg
faults during the photometric  optimization.  I shot two new panos
last night and one will go through ok the other faults.  I tried
compiling a Debug version but that didn't make a difference.  I'm
running the SVN version 3800.

Could it be one of the libraries we're using and that's why we get it
but others don't?

Nice idea. I've done something similar by hand. Could you also
consider a tolerance for the different brackets? This would help for
the following method, which I used several times.

Procedure: (mostly when there was a bright sky, but landscape rather
dark)
Shooting picture by hand, portrait mode, automatic exposure: first row
- landscape, horizont at top border, second row - sky, horizont at
bottom border
Add all pictures to one project, optimize positions and exposure
First stitch bottom row with one exposure setting, then second row
with an other exposure setting.
Finally enfuse both rows to final panorama.

Pro:
* wider _vertical_ field of view
* good exposure in landscape and sky
* less pictures are needed as when I would shoot 2 or more exposures
for every position (picture count would be two or three times higher
in this case)

Contra:
* doesn't work good with big trees over horizont (ghost removal for
enfuse would help in this case, sometimes enblend instead of enfuse
did a good job)

George,

I'm on holiday now with very limited internet access (only html).
Christopher Spiel made a patch for malloc and also removed a couple of
memory leaks in enblend/enfuse. I already made a new build and next week
I'll release it with the new enblend/enfuse. Then you can test and hopefully
it works.

I commit the patch to trunk (svn 3802). PTBatcherGUI runs now only one
times (one instance). A second call is blocked and all command line
parameters are transfered to the first instance.

I also could found the bug with the synchronisation. PTBatcherGUI
should now run again.

I tested both points on Windows Vista and Ubuntu 9.04 (guess who
installed ubuntu ;-) ). On both systems I noticed no problems.
