I might just have a very bad luck, but I experienced the FPW bug on all 4 computers I used Hugin on. One has a very old ATI grpahics, another has a new nVidia, the 3rd has an Intel and the last one SGX (branded by Intel). So I'm afraid this bug might affect all Windows users and that certainly isn't a small number of people. On the first computer (Notebook with ATI grpahics) I also had FPW crash in Linux, but it might be because of the opensource driver and the fact that it misses support for some features. I have an idea, but I'm not sure if it is possible: What about running the FPW in a separate thread and when it deadlocks or crashes, destroy the thread and open normal PW as a backup? Just an idea, I'm not sure how difficult it would be or if it is possible at all.

[hugin-ptx] Re: HuginSetup_2011.2.0-beta1 Windows exe - initial tests
Hi, I finally got to test this release. I instantly run into two big problems. When I run the assistant, it hangs with process make.exe using all CPU power. What might be causing this? What is the process "make.exe" supposed to do? If I align images manually, then there is no problem. But as soon as I display quick preview window, it opens to small (preview size is just about 20x20px) and Hugin either crashes or hangs with 100% CPU usage. Am I the only one having these crashes and hangups? Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hugin and other free panoramic software" group.

[hugin-ptx] Accented characters in path
Hello, I'd like to point out the very old bug ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/hugin/+bug/678808 ), when Hugin won't work with files which have non-ASCII characters in path. The problesm still exists in 2011.0. I know this problem affects quite a lot of people. People, who do not know about the problem, will get disappointed by Hugin, because it simply fails with no meaningful error message. I think the Hugin should either warn users about the problem if they try to open such files, or the problesm should be fixed. I think the solution I suggested (to use short path) should pretty easy to implement. It is not ideal but it should do the job. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hugin and other free panoramic software" group.

[hugin-ptx] Re: Just tried out 2011.0.0, but the fast panorama preview screen is "Not Responding" (ie. hangs)
I can confirm this bug on win32. It happens if I use the asistant on the first tab. Steps to reproduce: 1) On the asistent tab open a few images 2) Click align Everything works fine until the fast preview window is opened. After opening it, Hugin freezes and uses full power of one CPU core. You have to kill Hugin. Everything works fine if I do the steps manually (not use asistent) - open images -> create control points -> align images -> fast preview opens fine. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hugin and other free panoramic software" group.

I tried Hugin 2010.3 Windows build from this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/hugin-ptx/browse_thread/thread/7740afd5982d1a6 Unfortunately the problem with non-ASCII characters is still there. Are the changes in the system for running external programs, you were talking about, already implemented in this version? Thank you.

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. But I got some quite good results from Luminance HDR. It's pretty far from perfect, but it shows it should be possible to make a HDR out of the images: http://img338.imageshack.us/f/pokusg.jpg/ (tonemapped version). > I'm guessing you are using Windows with a Russian codepage?

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. 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. If you have some other solution in the current trunk, I will be happy to test it if somebody can provide me a compiled binary. I did some PHP, PyQt and PyGTK coding, but I never programmed anything in C/C++. I have absolutely no experience with compiling SW on Windows.

[hugin-ptx] Re: Windows hugin-2010.2.0_rc1 Build
Since we are already in RC state, there are some things which should be fixed IMHO before releasing the final version. I believe those only concern the Windows version. 1) Autopano-SIFT-C (not the multirow/stacked version) doesn't work. It creates only a few control points and those are completely wrong. Can someone else confirm this? If it works for you, what is your command line in settings? 2) Many problems with HDR (not panoramic) images. a) The images get incorrectly aligned (although the control points are OK). b) Strong distortion of images when using the "straighten" function in preview. c) The problem mentioned here: http://groups.google.com/group/hugin-ptx/browse_thread/thread/43c002b01166c7b5/8341f47694c4e61f 3) Hugin can't process images stored in path with non ASCII characters. Usually the problem appears when running Nona. First I thought it can be fixed by using a different encoding of .tmp files. But that didn't help. So I tried to convert the path to the short (DOS) names and that fixed the problem. The same problem appears if I try to use Autopano-SIFT-C multirow. I believe that these problems would be fixed by using short path names (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en- us/library/aa364989%28VS.85%29.aspx). They are already used in .bat files for user profile directory. I hope the problems 1 and 3 could be fixed quite easily (and should be fixed before releasing the final version IMHO). The problems in 2) are quite difficult to describe and reproduce. But I would assist as much as I can if somebody wants to look into it.

[hugin-ptx] Re: Strange boxes in HDR panorama output
I think I have the same problem with Hugin build 5161 on Windows (the latest I could find). I'm experiencing this with just 2 images taken with different exposures. You can get them here: http://www.mediafire.com/?75iqb3493hh5y15 I'm not sure if I'm not doing something wrong, but with other sets I have good results and my workflow is the same.

[hugin-ptx] Re: Moral questions
I would ask a different question. Is it moral to patent a mathematical algorithm? A don't think it should be patentable and so does the rest of the world except of USA and maybe Japan. Imagine someone patented Fourrier transformation... If I use Hugin and SIFT based control point generators, I'm not breaking any law and I don't do anything immoral. In fact the patent law is mainly used to slow down invention and evolution. Except of making less things patentable and for shorter time, some countries are going the other way we may see soon someone who will receive a patent for air breathing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.

But I think your answer to Flo wasn't quite right. I tested Hugin 0.8 on win32 and except of the problem I mentioned at http://groups.google.com/group/hugin-ptx/browse_thread/thread/3aaf8a5c7219a25c I didn't run into any problems. So I think the short and right answer should have been "There are some 3rd party dependencies broken on Windows." I think it would be a good idea to post this somewhere on the homepage, because it is really confusing. The homepage says that 0.8 has been released, I go to "Download" and I get 0.7 without any explanation. I think it is good idea to point to 0.7 until all dependencies for 0.8 are fixed, but it should be said and explained somewhere on the Hugin site.
