[hugin-ptx] Trying to get a 'zeronoise' image

[Terry Duell]

 Hello All,
I have been playing around with the hugin_executor scripting capability  
recently added to the default branch of the source repo, and particularly  
testing the 'zeronoise' script.

I am having some trouble getting a reasonable result.
I have two input images, 6016x4000. They are not the best test set as they  
have been shot handheld.
I pass the test images to align_image_stack, which produces two aligned  
images at 6016x4000.
I then run pto_gen to produce a .pto file to pass to hugin_executor. A  
look inside this .pto shows the default output is 3000x1500.

I run hugin_executor calling the zeronoise.executor script.
The output produced by the script is 3000x1500, and this image contains a  
quite small image in  a (lot of) transparent background...not quite what  
expected.
If I modify the zeronoise.executor script to set nona to save TIFF instead  
of TIFF_m and set --save-intermediate-images, I see that the exposure  
clipped images are 450x317, which is close to the size of the final  
zeronoise output image within the great expanse of transparency, but hard  
to be sure as the final output looks to be equirectangular.


I have been running the whole process via this shell script...
-
#! /bin/sh

# test zeronoise tools in hugin-2015.1.0
# Terry Duell Jul 2015

# test images were shot handheld, so use align_image_stack
align_image_stack -v -a AIS IMGP0223.JPG IMGP0225.JPG
echo " stack aligned"

# generate a .pto file
pto_gen -o zeron.pto AIS*
echo " generated .pto"

# run hugin_executor using zero-noise script
hugin_executor -s -p ZN -u zeronoise.executor zeron.pto

echo "All done!"
---

Has anyone had any success or otherwise with generating a 'zeronoise'  
image using the zeronoise.executor script?


Cheers,

Please find packages of hugin 2015.0 rc3 for Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty),
15.04 (Vivid) and 15.10 (Wily) in the Hugin PPA
Packagers "next Hugin Build" at
https://launchpad.net/~hugin/+archive/ubuntu/next/+packages

Unfortunately, builds for 14.10 (Utopic) are nor available because
Utopic is obsolete and launchpad will not accept new uploads for it.

As always these packages are based on the Debian PhotoTools Maintainers
work, namely Andreas Metzler: Thank you guys!

Installation instructions:
Open a terminal window and issue the following command:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hugin/next

The title of the PPA and the key used to sign it will be displayed. You
will have to confirm the inclusion of this PPA to the package sources of
you system by pressing enter.

Afterward, you can update you system using the commands

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

or whatever other method you prefer to update your system.

The same is explained at
https://launchpad.net/~hugin/+archive/ubuntu/next/
when you click 'Read about installing' under the title "Adding this PPA
to your system"


As a side note, I recommend to add the "latest Hugin builds" PPA at the
same time because there you will eventually get the final release. The
command for this PPA is:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hugin/hugin-builds

If you run into a show stopper and need to go back to your old hugin
version, issue these commands in a terminal window:

sudo apt-get purge hugin
sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:hugin/next
sudo apt-get install hugin


Please send bug reports to this list or use
https://bugs.launchpad.net/hugin/+filebug
to report a bug.

Thank you very much for your participation.

Cheers

Stefan Peter

I have built Fedora rpm packages for f21 and f22 (i386 and x86_64), 
they can be found here: https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/bpostle/panorama/

You can also find up-to-date versions of enblend and multiblend in 
the same place.  These packages are now built and hosted on the 
Fedora 'copr' infrastructure, which should make them easier for me 
to update in the future.

Fedora users can enable this repository with this command, and will 
then get updated snapshot packages with each future system update.

  dnf copr enable bpostle/panorama

The rpms are now signed by a fedoraproject pgp key, so you may get 
asked to approve a key with this fingerprint:
  BA7A EF50 918B D343 9645  D340 3EEC 6B5F D37F 4C62

If you are already subscribed to my previous rpm 'panorama' 
repository, then you _should_ get automatically migrated.

The new source tarball can be downloaded at launchpad
https://launchpad.net/hugin/2015.0/2015.0rc3/+download/hugin-2015.0.0_rc3.tar.bz2
(upload at sourceforge is still down, so currently the source tarball can 
only be downloaded from launchpad or use the mercurial repository)

Rc3 is identical to changeset cdefc6e53a58in our repository, which is also 
tagged as 2015.0rc3

Changes since rc2
* Fixed executor for big projects (only for compilation with wxWidgets 
2.8.x needed, wxWidgets 3.x is not affect by this bug.)
* Updated Catalan translation

The release notes are here 
http://hugin.sourceforge.net/releases/2015.0.0/en.shtml
They are already translated to French and German:
http://hugin.sourceforge.net/releases/2015.0.0/fr.shtml

EXECUTABLES
Users communities produce executables for their respective platforms. They 
will be announced in this thread.

CHANGES SINCE 2014.0.0
* Hugin 2015.0 has a number of new features. Most of the changes are under 
the hood to improve stability, allow easier maintenance and easier addition 
of new features.
* The makefile based stitching engine has been replaced with direct calls 
to the underlying programs. This should reduce the overhead of calling the 
same program too often and so speed up the whole process. Hopefully this 
also allows the usage of more unusual characters in the filename. Instead 
of pto2mk and make we now have hugin_executor which can also be used for 
running the assistant from the command line.
* Hugin now has it's own blender, verdandi, based on a watershed algorithm, 
which has been included in 'nona'.  verdandi can be chosen as the blender 
by choosing "builtin" in the stitcher tab, and can also be set in  the 
Preferences. verdandi can also be called as a command line tool.
* The lensfun library has been removed as it did not fulfill our 
expectations. It has been replaced with our own camera and lens database 
which uses a data mining approach and operates automatically without user 
intervention. Geometric distortion and vignetting data have to be loaded 
manually.
* The fast preview window has a new tool to add or remove control points to 
selected areas in the output projection.
* Automatic exposure stack detection is now applied when loading images, 
and an option has been added to unlink image position when adding stacks.
* The fine-tune and auto-estimate functions in the control point tab have 
been made projection aware. It should now work also with images with 
different fov or different projections. The fine-tune feature has had a 
significant speed up when Hugin is compiled with the libfftw3 library 
(optional).
* PTBatcherGUI has more choice for the end of the process: depending on the 
operating system the PTBatcherGUI can be closed, the computer can be shut 
down or send to the hibernate mode.
* PTBatcherGUI now shows the thumbnails when searching for images in 
directories.
* Many of the underlying tools in hugin are now able to use available cpu 
cores.

New tools added:
** verdandi: tool for image blending
** hugin_executor: stitching and run assistant from command line
** hugin_lensdb: tools for lens database maintenance
