Re: [hugin-ptx] Drone Pano Scripting - Cannot get rid of the Black Hole Sky

2023-08-22 Thread RizThon
You may want to search in Hugin mailing list for "Fill clear sky update".

It refers to https://github.com/weltyj/SkyFill

Looking at the tutorial with pictures
https://github.com/weltyj/SkyFill/blob/main/Tutorial/SkyFill_tutorial_v1.md
this is probably what you want. I do not know how difficult it is to use
(and I guess compile) the tool is.

Re: [hugin-ptx] Basic newbie question

2023-08-08 Thread RizThon
I usually use a mask if I find a visible discontinuity like you have. The
problem is that it's quite trial and error. If you're lucky, then the new
panorama will look good. If not, you may realize there's a new visible
discontinuity somewhere else! In your case, there's grass next to the path,
so a discontinuity there will not be as obvious. The house may cause more
issues. So I guess you just need to try and see what you get.

Re: [hugin-ptx] Basic newbie question

2023-08-07 Thread RizThon
As Gunter said, to avoid having those issues, you must be careful when
taking the pictures.

The best thing is to have a tripod, and be able to keep the center of the
lens at the same place between each shot. With handheld shots, try to
rotate around the camera, instead of rotating the camera around you.

For your current pictures, it seems pictures IMPG9882.JPG and IMPG9883.JPG
couldn't be mixed/fused properly. You could try to add a mask on one of
those pictures, to force Hugin to use data of a single picture (see Hugin
tutorial — Blend masks
). For ex you
add an include mask on IMPG9883.JPG along the path and up to the house.
Note that you'll probably still have issues in other places, but if it's in
the grass or trees, it may be less visible.

Re: [hugin-ptx] Re: Wondering what I'm doing wrong

2023-05-17 Thread RizThon
Did you read about parallax error?
https://hugin.sourceforge.io/docs/manual/No-parallax_point.html

Basically when taking the pictures, don't rotate the camera around you, but
rotate around the camera, to try to leave the camera at the same place for
each picture. This is especially important when you take pictures of things
close to you, which is what you tried.

If you have a tripod and you can move the camera forward/backward, you can
try to find the best position around which to rotate your camera to
minimize parallax error as much as possible.

No. Hugin is more to stitch pictures together to get a bigger picture, eg

Re: [hugin-ptx] Request : forum migration

2019-07-22 Thread RizThon
I'm using a discourse site and I see in the settings "Enable mailing list

It seems to be possible to reply or even create new threads through email:
-https://meta.discourse.org/t/set-up-reply-via-email-support/14003
- https://meta.discourse.org/t/configuring-reply-via-email-e-mail/42026

It also seems to be possible to import your google group emails data to
discourse:
https://meta.discourse.org/t/importing-mailing-lists-mbox-listserv-google-groups-emails/79773

Something nice with discourse is that you can create categories and then
only ask to get notifications from specific categories (people need of
course to use the correct categories when posting).

The discourse interface is from my point of view way better than google
groups, but migrating to discourse will probably be quite some work and a
change for all people used to the mailing list

I don't know what Hugin uses, but for image/video processing, GPUs are way
faster than CPUs. So if you have an app that can make use of the power of
the GPU, you may want to consider buying a better graphic card (or even
cards) rather than paying for a better processor.

Clicking on the column "Translation" doesn't do anything, but in the "View"
menu you can choose to order by file order, source or translation. You can
also select "untranslated entries first".
I just installed 1.5.5 on Windows and by default I have "sort by
translation" and "untranslated entries first". So I first have
untranslated, then fuzzy (in color), then untranslated.

Re: [hugin-ptx] Re: fast preview panorama doesn't work on windows 8

2012-12-31 Thread RizThon
I just installed Win 8 Pro (x64) to try it. I downloaded
Hugin_2012.0.0_64bit_Windows.7z

At 1st glew told me
*OpenGL version 1.1.0 is supported*
*GL_VERSION_1_1:OK*
with the rest MISSING (I didn't try Hugin then).

I updated the graphic drivers using Windows Update. Now glew says
*OpenGL version 4.2.0 is supported*
with maybe 50% OK and 50% MISSING, but the few ones required by Hugin are
OK.

I tried an 8 horizontal pictures pano (full frame fisheye) that I already
did before. I simply drop the pictures, select full frame fisheye, then
click "2. Align...". Everything works fine and I see the fast preview. I
can play with the Panosphere.

Then I go to Stitcher, select JPEG 95 quality and click "Stich!".

I eventually get an enblend error I never saw before:
"G:/Hugin 2012.0.0/bin/enblend" --compression=95 -w -f7596x2779+0+110 -o

*The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration

make: *** [DSC_5941-DSC_5948.jpg] Error 1
Checking the Windows Logs/Application is see 2 errors:

I then installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package x64,
now I have 3 errors (enblend, then enfuse, then enblend again). Looks like
it wasn't 2010 that was missing.

So I then installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package

Of course if you use the same lens with different sensor size, the result
will be different. That's why the Nikkor 10.5 on a small sensor has a 180°
diagonal while on a fullframe sensor the HFOV is around 180°.

Indeed:
"The angle of view of a fisheye lens is usually between 100 and 180 degrees[
1]  while
the focal lengths  depend
on the film
format  they are designed for."

At least now you should have a better idea whether or not you want that
fisheye lens! I have a fullframe fisheye and it's quite practical to only
take 6 pictures horizontally (I have a pano head so I also take a zenith,
but I always have issues stitching the nadir, as the shot is handheld to
avoid seeing the tripod).

I feel like the full 180° *diagonal* angle of view from Olympus and the
139.5° (as it's not specified it should be horizontal, which is what is
normally used) from Bower ends up being almost the same (you computed for a
fullframe fisheye 144°)

Each lens displays what it "sees", and there are usually distortions
compared to reality. So even with "normal" non fisheye / non very wide
angles, you have distortions. Those distortions are directly linked to the
way the lens is built, and thus different lenses with the same FOV will
have different distortions (even if they are not really noticeable).


>  At least one of the images appears to show a horizontal angle of more

>
For me a real fisheye lens should have at least a diagonal of 180° for FF,
or a full 180° circle for circular (or at least quite close to 180°). It's
possible that some vendors use the term fisheye just because of the look of
the pictures you can take.
Note also that some lenses have an angle of more than 180° (there's the
huge Nikkor 6mm with a 220° angle, meaning you starts seeing what's behind
you! Or the full frame fisheye Nikkor 10.5mm made for small sensors, but
that actually has an angle of a little bit more than 180° when used on a
full frame camera).

There can indeed be a big difference between a 9mm rectilinear lens and an
8mm fisheye lens, even if 9 doesn't sound that far from 8. It's also
possible to have fisheyes from different vendors with different mm, even if
they are all fullframe or circular.



> I also get the same results whether I select "full frame fisheye" or

I find it weird that it gives the same result...

A fullframe fisheye gives you an image corresponding to the biggest
rectangle (because your sensor is a rectangle) in a circle, that's why the
diagonals are 180°, but horizontal and especially vertical won't be as much.

A circular fisheye will give you the biggest circle on your rectangular
sensor. So you'll see a circular image with 180° in all directions, but
around that circle you'll have black part, because no light ended up on
those parts of the sensor.

Theoritically, with a circular fisheye, you could only need 2 pictures,
while with a fullframe you'd need a few more.

It usually means that you don't have the latest changes from the server.
So you should first pull the latest changes from the server, then

Re: [hugin-ptx] Memory allocation issue still not resolved w 64 bit version

2012-05-29 Thread RizThon
I've had the same problem and found other messages about it in the
mailing list. They all concern Win7 64 bits and I feel we all have
enough RAM (4 to 8GB). As soon as I have time I'll retry again with a
new version on a Win7 64 with 4GB RAM, and another one with 8GB. If I
find an XP 64 and 32 I'll try on them too.

Message "[hugin-ptx] Hugin - No control points" by George Mahoney on 6/17/11

While attempting to align images I get a long list of the following
error messages...

Analysing i1:
An error occurred while loading image: Caught exception: Bad
allocation

Analysing i2:
An error occurred while loading image: Caught exception: Bad
allocation

It happens to each photo and the end result is that no control points
are found between any images, no matter how seemingly obvious the
images are overlapped. I'm running 64 bit windows 7. I've reinstalled
hugin to no avail, and tried several different control point settings.
Am I missing something?

Message "RE:[hugin-ptx] Hugin - No control points" by me on 10/31/11

I have the same issue here (except there's no error with the 1st
images, only after 7 or 8). I'm also running Win7 64 (i3 2100, 4GB
RAM). I've tried several hugin installers (latest one being 2011.02 64
bits). I always use the default settings (and ask the settings to be
reset while installing a new version).

>I'll ask some questions, maybe we can find a solution:
>- What kind of images are you trying to align?

My images are all 3872x2592 (taken with FF fisheye). Usually if I have
7 or 8 images all works fine (I load the images, choose FF fisheye
then click "Align..." and get a good pano). If I have more I get
Analysing ix:
An error occurred while loading image: Caught exception: Bad allocation
for the next pictures.

If I resize my pics to be 1000x669 then I can correctly stitch 24
images (8 towards the horizon, 8 30° up, 8 30° down).
By the way, is there a way to reuse the pto that I created with the
smaller resolution images? It looks like when I choose "Apply
Template" with the big resolution images, I lose all the control
points.

I can send you the pics if necessary.

I've been using Hugin before with XP and didn't encounter that issue
(I was using a different computer).

Re: [hugin-ptx] Inverted cone view

2012-05-24 Thread RizThon
You're image is obviously not a 360x180, you're missing both zenith
and nadir. If you give this image to PanoCube, it will simply tell you
that the ratio is incorrect (should be 2x1).
Just add data up and down so that you have the correct ratio (usually
if I'm missing some sky I just choose some blue for the top, and
usually some dark colour for the bottom). Then run again PanoCube or
Pano2QTVR.

Re: [hugin-ptx] Looking for recomendations on a new camera

2012-01-10 Thread RizThon
If you're going to borrow lenses, then you'll want a compatible
camera, so it can help you choose between canon/nikon & co (also maybe
between Full Frame - more expensive - and non FF).

For me the most important thing is the lens: I have a Nikon D80 with a
Nikkor 50mm 1.4 that I just love. I'd be able to take the same
pictures with a cheaper D40 or more expensive D300.

I like my D80 because I have direct access to most of the things I
need. On the D40 I'd need to go through menus, which is a pain, unless
you're in a studio and you never change your settings.

The only reason I'd upgrade my D80 is concerning the ISO. Starting 800
the picture gets grainy, so I never go more than 640. Newer cameras
can go way higher (the max of the D80 is 3200, the max of the 7500€ D4
is a few 100,000...). Again if you're in a studio with plenty of like,
you don't need that.

I doubt I'd get much better picture quality with a newer sensor (maybe
more dynamic range). I would probably play a bit with the video, with
my 50 1.4 to have some nice bokkeh, or my fisheye to see how it looks
like, but I feel like video on DSLR are more for pros who are ready to
have several takes, can see the image on a bigger screen, control the
focus manually...

Of course it also depends on your budget...7500€ for the brand new D4
(available mid-February in France I think) which will seem huge
compared to you P&S...A D5100 if I remember correctly) might be better

[hugin-ptx] Re: autopano-sift-c

2011-11-30 Thread RizThon
I have the same problem with CPFind, like George Mahoney who started a
thread called "Hugin - No control points"...

Here is what I previously wrote:

I have the same issue here (except there's no error with the 1st
images, only after 7 or 8). I'm also running Win7 64 (i3 2100, 4GB
RAM). I've tried several hugin installers (latest one being 2011.02 64
bits). I always use the default settings (and ask the settings to be
reset while installing a new version).

>I'll ask some questions, maybe we can find a solution:
>- What kind of images are you trying to align?

My images are all 3872x2592 (taken with FF fisheye). Usually if I have
7 or 8 images all works fine (I load the images, choose FF fisheye
then click "Align..." and get a good pano). If I have more I get
ix : Analyzing image...
An error occurred while loading image: Caught exception: Bad
allocation for the next pictures.

If I resize my pics to be 1000x669 then I can correctly stitch 24
images (8 towards the horizon, 8 30° up, 8 30° down).
By the way, is there a way to reuse the pto that I created with the
smaller resolution images? It looks like when I choose "Apply
Template" with the big resolution images, I lose all the control
points.

I can send you the pics if necessary.

I've been using Hugin before with XP and didn't encounter that issue
(I was using a different computer).

When I don't know how to translate a word I usually look for its translation
in another software. Unfortunately my Gimp is now in English and I just
can't open it in French anymore (maybe I need to reboot for the modification
of the environment variable to really have an effect...).

Sounds quite logical to me to fake control points the way you do...it's
faster than positioning all images next to each other and then creating
control points automatically, and you have real control on the output.
As for the mirror, it's anyway probably not 100% symmetrical nor

[hugin-ptx] Re: Windows installer release 2009.2 ?

2009-10-20 Thread RizThon
FYI I'm on Win XP Pro SP3 and I use Version 2009.1.0.4240 Ad Huikeshoven. I
made several panoramas with it and it never crashed (but I most probably
don't use all the features).
If I remember correctly I tried one of the new "highly experimental alpha"
and it crashed really fast, so I went back to the first non alpha.

I don't know if it's still the case, but as written in "[hugin-ptx]
(Probably very basic) help needed for build process on WinXP: missing
files?", at that time the current enblend didn't compile. So you might need
to get revision 523.

Can you post the original pictures? I'll just check if I get the same
results as you...

Also previously I said that I could clearly distinguish the 2 pictures in
the fast preview, but it's not as pronounced as on your screenshot
http://don.vn.cz/temp/repo/hugin/huginpreview.jpg where it really looks like
the exposure of the 2nd picture was modified.

[hugin-ptx] Re: what is hugin doing to the exposure?

2009-10-12 Thread RizThon
By the way in the Fast Preview i can also easily see the intersection of the
2 pictures because they don't match perfectly (the horizon is good but in
the sky a cloud isn't stitched correctly and same a lot closer on the grass)
and there's some visible vignetting. But the blended panorama is just
perfect.

I'm using "Version 2009.1.0.4240 Ad Huikeshoven".

I just dropped your 2 images in hugin (it automatically chooses "Normal
(rectilinear)", 24mm and 3.43 for the lens info), I automatically added the
control points and clicked the "Stitch now!" button (all default / automatic
values: Rectilinear, FOV 36x20, size 1494x811, "Blended panorama"
checked)and I get a nice blended panorama...

We could at least say on the Wiki that it's better to try and improve the
English version at the same time as your own language version. And if you
make some new documents (tutorial, ...) in your own language, it would be
good to also translate them into English. So no "You must do that!!!" but
more "It would be better to do that."

2009-10-01 Thread RizThon
Would this mean that we would use po4a to manage the translation of the
wiki?

Has I don't really have the courage (yet?) to really dive into Hugin code, I
try to help where I can, meaning for translations and enhancing the wiki.
The problem

If we knew which string correspond to the GUI (meaning which strings are
really useful for the user), we would be able to compute a percentage or
something...We should really try to pin down those "useful" string and add a
keyword to them in the comment part of the po file. That way translators
will know exactly which strings are mandatory. I guess it shouldn't take to
long to do it using an IDE and going through all the tabs in Hugin?


> >> or about a manual that refers to Hugin 0.5?
>
That's a lot worse (I feel) than having a not fully translated GUI, as it
shows that the project isn't really well supported / updated. Also it's most
probably useless...
The problem of a wiki is really to update it. At least with your code, it
first need to compile, and you also have tests. For the wiki you have
nothing, and unless you *stumbles* upon an old page, you have no way to know
it's there and it needs to be updated...I guess if we want to have a good
wiki, we need someone (or several) to review it from time to time...

The only thing we can do about it is tell the user that unfortunately the
translation in his/her language isn't fully up-to-date (we're an open source
project and don't pay translators, but if you can understand english, you
can help us, blablabla). Then he/she would choose a language accordingly.

What I don't really like in wikipedia is that articles are not translated
from one language to the other (but it would be hard to maintain if you
don't set a "primary" language) but are quite often totally different: not
the same layout, not the exactly the same info.
I feel we should say that english is our "primary" language, meaning it's
the most up-to-date version, so that every translator, who's supposed to
understand English, can update his/her part.
What we need to know is when a translated page is outdated, so that
translators can work on it.

*The po4a (po for anything) project goal is to ease translations (and more
interestingly, the maintenance of translations) using gettext tools on areas
where they were not expected like documentation.*
Sounds like what we need!

So that wouldn't really be for taking panoramas I guess ^^ Also be carefull,
sometimes it's written something like "7 images per seconds *" and when you
look at the "*" it says that you need the grip with the additional
batteries, or else you'll shoot at 5 images per seconds...
I can shoot at 3 img/s, and indeed in some cases I might want to shoot a
little bit faster, when shooting sport events...

I don't understand why using a FF you'll have a better shallow depth of
field effet? I have a 50mm 1.4 (but a 1.8 would already be enough) and it
gives me great portrait...honestly, I just *love* that lens, and I can
always at once tell the difference from a picture taken with it compared to
a picture taken with my 18-135 3.5-5.6 lens kit.

Can you add the command for the SVN update here

may also want to give the command to just update the translation folder,

Well as long as everything is nicely documented in the Wiki, I guess
translators may actually do it. I mean they already downloaded and installed
Poedit, so they should be able (and willing to) also create a sourceforge
account and dowload TortoiseSVN (which definitely is really easy to use) or
Subversion.

Does a translator really have to Checkout the whole project (which will take
some time, but mostly the first time)? Isn't it possible to just get the
right file (or more likely all the translation files) using a "module" (I
think it's the way it's called in CVS) or something?

I've modified a lil bit the layout of the "Become a Power Translator" to
separate Windows and the rest...it sounded easier that way to me, but I'm
not sure eventually whether it's better or not ^^ (because when reading
stuff, I'm usually not really concentrated and I like when things are really
clear...but well if you prefer your version, you should be able to get it
back). I also added in the "Getting Started on translations" part a word
about using SVN (because again, users may not read each and every line of
the wiki).

Could you point me to some info about formatting for the Wiki (I want to
make a link in "For more information see >Become A Power Translator<." but I
just don't know how...I also would like to use *bold* to stress some
stuffs).

[hugin-ptx] Re: translation

2009-09-24 Thread RizThon
I guess several people should be able to work on the same language file, one
should just check before commiting it that no new version is available.

As for the fr.po file, I already updated it once (but I don't know
eventually if the modifications were taken into account). I just thought
about updating it again as from what I read in the release notes, there was
no updated French translation. But if you're working on it then I'll just
leave it to you.

Also the current mechanism as described on the Wiki to add the updated
translation to the patch tracker may not be a good idea if several people
work on the same file, as one should first check for a patch (as I
understand it a patch is just a file that has not yet been commited to the
repository, right?).

[hugin-ptx] Re: translation

2009-09-23 Thread RizThon
I wanted to update the French translation file, but just like last time I
realize there are quite a lot of things I can't really translate
(accurately) or modify, because I have no knowledge of the context, meaning
when a string is used. There are for example quite a lot of strings that
look like they are a good translation but of another string...That could be
the intended behavior (eg when translating a bigger text that is split into
several strings).

I just checked Poedit, and it's possible to add a comment to each string,
you just need to check "View / Show comment window". To be able to edit that
comment window you might need to go to "File / Preferences..." and check
"Comment window is editable" in the "Editor" tab.

It would definitely be a great help to translators to have some useful
comments. We could at least have a few keywords to use in that comment
window, like "title", "short description", "long description", "button",
"non GUI" or things like that, to at least know how the string we're
translating is being used. Also a translator could add some comments on
his/her translation to explain, if needed, why he/she translated it that
way.

When / How should we use shortcuts? In the fr.po file, sometimes there's a
shortcut for the default language (eg &Open) but not in French, sometimes
it's the opposite...The problem here is that you probably shouldn't have in
the same menu the same shortcut for several items...

Some strings seem to be duplicated like
"These are the default arguments. They can be changed for individ*u*al
projects in the Stitcher tab.\n..." and
"These are the default arguments. They can be changed for individal projects
in the Stitcher tab.\n..."
Are we sure that all the strings are used (ie all the strings are
automatically retrieve from the code) or is it possible that we have some
strings that are not used anymore?

Is it possible to see Hugin's GUI in an IDE and translate the strings used
in the GUI straight from the IDE? That would be the best thing to know how
it will eventually look like. What do I need if I'm on Windows / Linux / Mac
? (I'm asking for all 3 so that I can update the wiki accordingly).

[hugin-ptx] Re: Flipping Photos !

2009-09-01 Thread RizThon
Hi,
I've also had weird behaviors like this, where one or more of my pictures
would be rotated by 90, 180 or 270°, even if the control points are all
correct. Looking at Dale's Control Points picture, which reminds me of what
I've experienced a few times, I definitely think there's a bug somewhere
because how could hugin possibly think that the image 6 should be rotated
180° while all the control points are correct?
This happened to me while trying to stitch panoramas not of landscapes,
where even if you don't have a pano head it's not really an issue, but of
closer things, which is just what Dale is trying to do...but still, why
would hugin rotate that image...

Hi Tom,
that might sound like a silly question, but what about zooms (like my

As for the pics, I guess if I take pictures of the buildings in front of my

some sky for the not so full of straight lines...

Just like for Ubuntu, when you see the version number you know when it's

Yup CP is for Control Point. The problem is that the default CP generator

in the US, you can't use it.

[hugin-ptx] Re: Profile Guided Optimization

2009-07-08 Thread .: RizThon :. [BooZ]
I see 2 things:
- optimizing Hugin ie optimizing the users GUI experience
- optimizing the tools used by Hugin, ie optimizing the creation of the
panorama after clicking the "Stitch" button or launching a task, optimizing
the CP creations, ...
Actually I guess Hugin is mostly a shell that controls tools, so most of the
optimization could be done by optimizing those tools.

I usually stitch 2-3 pictures, or 6-7-8 pictures if I want a (almost)
360-180° using my fisheye, and I run each project one at a time. So
eventually I usually wait for the pano to be created, so to me if the
stitching process took 30s instead of 5 or 10 minutes, it would be great.
>From the GUI point of view, what takes me some time is loading the pictures
and automatically finding the CP. I usually don't do much, except modify
some CP if the preview shows some big errors.

Maybe it's indeed needed for huge projects, but for my small ones it's
usually just fast.

>- CP editing/fine tuning

I don't feel like editing / fine tuning is that slow. I don't know whether
there's a "fine tune all CPs", but if it does exist then some optimization
might be good, as even on small projects you easily have at least 20 CP.

>- Preview (Fast and regular, although regular is less of a concern

Indeed. I haven't checked the fast preview though, but I guess it's fast.

If it's an external tool, then we should "just" optimize it, not within
Hugin.

If it takes time when you click a button in Hugin (eg when loading the
images), then it should be optimized, as it would enhance the user's
experience.

Well with Liquid Rescale you can select parts that must not be modified and
parts that should be resized first...
Have a look here if you haven't heard of it
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3MDVKPly50 Here it's only to make the image
smaller, but you can also make it bigger. Here's the "original" presentation

Well indeed it might be a good thing to make things easier for beginners.
Well the first good step was with the 0.7 version on windows where the
installer had everything in it, so there was no need to go download exes on
other websites. Also the website has been updated (more tutorials and
documentation). I feel it's quite easy to browse through it, but users want
things to be simple and usually don't like reading manuals ^^ So it could be
good to add some more explanations in the forms in hugin, cuz at first you
don't really know what to do with all those tabs.
If there are things you don't know or understand how to do, just ask! That's
how we can make things even better, and there are probably other people who
are just like you, a little bit lost!

ok but then what category and group should I choose? None? As for the
summary we could specify "translation" or something. I'm only asking this
question so that I can update the wiki. That way people won't have to wonder
which category or group they should use.

Could we add to the tracker a "translation" category? I'm updating the wiki,
but I don't really want to email addresses or else you'll probably receive
quite a lot of spam. The tracker looks pretty straight forward to use, the
only question is which category and group to use.

Well it's just that if you can see it what it really looks like, it could be
better (to know for ex if you used a too long string for a button, and so
you don't see all of it), but indeed, it's not mandatory.

Isn't it possible to add some comments? I work with c# and for our resource

[hugin-ptx] translation

2009-03-13 Thread RizThon
Hi all,
I just saw in a previous post that some translation was still needed.
There's this page for translation
http://wiki.panotools.org/Hugin_translation_guide but still I find it quite
difficult for someone who doesn't know anything about programmation...first
getting the sources, then looking for the pto file, doing the translation
(the only thing the person might really know how to do), then sending the
modifications through the tracker (
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=77506&atid=550443 ->
what's the category or group, what's the summary or description should
like). Also what file exactly needs to be send? Cuz I think after using
poedit I have a po file and another one for the culture I was doing.
Another thing is that I might not know or wish or have time, as a
translater, to compile everything and check everything (to see if the
translations were indeed accurate, if the text isn't too big and can be
seen...). That's why in a previous post I said it would be really useful to
have comments for the string to localize, at least things like "button" (so
the text should be quite brief), "menu" (so the text might be a bit longer),
...Whenn looking at the GUI it might be quite easy to understand what should
be written but by just looking at those strings, without the context, it's
quite difficult...
I dunno what you all think about that...anyway, I translated the french po
file, I might send it somewhere (tracker or somewhere else) when I'll be
home tonight or this week end...
Cheers,
  RizThon

Well I think more like BugBear that the journalist just didn't bother
much...Actually I feel like it's more and more of a problem nowadays. It
seems like everyone calls him/herself a journalist, and sadly quite often
the articles are quite limited, contain wrong terms, are based on nothing
except other articles found on the Internet...

Here I guess the journalist put some nice pictures, because that's what
people will look at. As for the text that goes with it, well I guess he just
took some of the things written by Alexandre, without bothering explaining
some complex terms (what any "real" journalist would/should do, when
writting an article for non specialists), and removing what he thought was
useless...But reading the comment, it looks like quite a lot of people would
have liked to know that Alexandre used Hugin to create the 360-180°
panoramas, and other open source softwares...

Anyway, Hugin is really great, and I promote it to all my friends ^^

Cheers,
  RizThon

I don't know how localization is handled in Hugin, but it could make things

Hi Tom, I guess Alexandre is answering the "a web designer to make a nice

Hi
I'm also often having issues stitching fisheye pictures...and here
with the sample pictures you give, indeed it's quite a mess, and some
pictures get upside down...I just opened the pics, and specified to
use a full frame fisheye, the 8mm and 1.59x are already there. Appart
from that I've got all the default settings (I got hugin 0.7).
Enabling rotation search (Preferences/Control Points Editor/Rotation
search) allows me to get a "less worse" result, ie I don't got upside
down images anymore, and the ceiling is where it should be...
