Any suggestions for a small standalone program that will remove the alpha 
channel to give 24bit and 48bit TIFF?

  It would be possible, but the alpha channel in the
enblend TIFF
  output is useful since a lot of panoramas have
transparent
 areas.

 While I agree that it's useful to support alpha channel
(and
 I've used
 that masking capability with Enfuse), It seems that
image processing
 software intended for photographers tends not support alpha
 channel TIFF
 even when it does support 48bit TIFF.

 Image processing software intended for a broader audience,
 intended for
 illustrators, is more likely to support alpha channel TIFF.

 For example, the free to use,  Serif Photo Plus Starter
Edition,
 opened
 all the problem TIFFs and allowed them to be exported
as 24bit
 or 32bit
 TIFF.

 DxO Optics Pro wouldn't open the converted 32bit TIFF
but did
 open the
 converted 24bit TIFF.

 Unfortunately it seems very unlikely that the makers of
software for
 photographers will be persuaded to support alpha
channel TIFF.

 I understand that the conversion is possible with
ImageMagick but
 as-well-as my reluctance to install all that stuff on
my Windows
 install, even Ubuntu now shows a warning that
ImageMagick cannot be
 authenticated (whatever that means).

 Perhaps the better approach would be
 yet-another-utility-program, based
 on libtiff, which strips the alpha channel and could be
used after
 Enblend or Enfuse?

 Hmmm, Rawtherapee opens Hugin TIFFs with no problems or
complaints.
 GIMP only complains about them being 16-bit per channel.
Haven't
 tried opening one in Bibble 5/Aftershot Pro, but that is
software
 intended for photographers.

Gimp 2.8.4 on Windows does not complain at all, as far as I can see.


Same version I have here, although I run it on Linux, not Windows.

Does it tell you that the input file has 16-bits per channel, GIMP
only supports 8-bits per channel, so it is dropping the other 8 bits
per channel? That's the GIMP "complaint" I'm referring to. GIMP
doesn't support 48-bit (3 16-bit channels). That's scheduled for GIMP 3.


I know that currently GIMP is still limited to 8 bits / channel. I only
meant that GIMP does not complain about the bit depth when loading a
48-bits image. Actually, I have looked everywhere for a mention of the
bit depth in Gimp but have been unable to find any. Gimp is very quiet
about this :-)


GIMP has stated that GIMP 3 will have full 48-bit color support, 
including for all effects, filters, etc.


Photoshop has had 48-bit support for a long time now, since 48-bit color 
is the professional photography standard.


The problem with transparency and digital photographs has been around a 
long time. When JPG standard was defined, it didn't include 
transparency. I think it's because the joint "photographic experts" take 
"transparency" to mean a type of film image, not an attribute of a 
photograph. ;-)


Does anyone know why we receive what look like TWO slightly different 
list sigs like this at the bottom? Maybe someone could combine the two 
and reduce the extraneous line count a bit?

This may be part of the reason why Gimp has still this limitation. But I
think the broader audience does not forbid high bit depth, it only means
that a smaller proportion of users feels the need for it. Sure, high bit
depth makes calculations slower and means images will use more space in
memory, but the drawbacks of low bit depths are often visible even to
occasional users. Even on JPEG images, 48 bits calculations should bring
sometimes better results.

Based on my experience with DxO "support", this is an unfounded
claim.  It seems that the software makes assumptions that have nothing
to do with the standards, and when it fails, they blame the creator of
the file.  I had a similar problem with raw input files where I had
added an Author: to the EXIF data.  The EXIF processing routines
failed, and it was apparently my fault.  But it would certainly be
interesting to see if they can back up their claims.

I'll let you know if I manage to isolate the problem. 

I can tell you that although ACDSee Pro 6 versin 6.2 (Build 212) does allow 
the same files to be viewed at 100%, any attempt to edit or export creates 
a trashed image.

The problem is not image size - the same thing happens with a 529x796 3MB 
image.

I'll let you know if I manage to isolate the problem. 

I can tell you that although ACDSee Pro 6 versin 6.2 (Build 212) does allow 
the same files to be viewed at 100%, any attempt to edit or export creates 
a trashed image.

It would be nice to know the exact nature of the problem, hugin/enblend use
vigra and this uses libtiff which is the reference tiff implementation.

This is the libjpeg-turbo arithmetic coding bug, you need to get your
distribution to apply a patch for older enblend when used with this new
jpeg library. There is an enblend bug report in launchpad you can use as
reference.

Funny, I am having problems sometimes with the jpg generated by enblend at
the end of the stitching process. It opens ok in GIMP and can be converted
ok with imagemagick, but some viewers, like xzgv and the xfce default
viewer don't open them. In those cases I just convert them with imagemagick
and it gets ok.

I've encountered a similar problem with DxO Optics Pro 8, which will 
produce 48bit TIFF as output that is accepted by Enfuse or Hugin, but will 
not accept the TIFF produced by Enfuse or Hugin as valid input. 

The response from DxO is that the Enfuse and Hugin files don't comply with 
TIFF standard.

What library Hugin uses to create tiff files? Maybe it is possible to
add some options to specify different tiff format?


It would be possible, but the alpha channel in the enblend TIFF 
output is useful since a lot of panoramas have transparent areas.

I realized that Hugin creates a 64-bit tiff, while the input files are
48 bits. Captue NX2 only understands 48 bits.


These would still be 16bit per channel, a 'normal' RGB image would 
have 16+16+16 = 48bits, whereas RGBA output from enblend has 
16+16+16+16 = 64bits.


You could try removing the alpha channel with ImageMagick or 
similar.  Something like this, but don't be surprised if I have this 
wrong:


  mogrify -background black -flatten +matte project.tif

What size did your test image have? Could it be that NX2 has a maximum
image size restriction that does not allow you to open complete
equirects? I know for sure that BibblePro is limited in this regard.
