2022-10-07 Thread Rich MacDonald
On very large renders (>15K pixels/side), I often see hugin "skipping" an image or two and leaving a blank space. Example at https://photos.app.goo.gl/sEqkSeJbqYSGBGTb8 Rendering at lower resolution fixes the problem. At full resolution, by trial and error I re-arrange the order of the images

I do a lot of panoramas with multi-row and multi-exposure. I usually put all the images into a single file with good results, but when the enblend "excessive overlap" hits, I cannot figure out how to recover. Recently I switched to a more manual approach: I first build the stacks individually a

Afaik, the only way to determine if you have "unconnected image groups" is to open the fast preview->assistant tab and read the text message. However, for large projects, that text message goes offscreen, so I can never find which items need to be connected. Is there another places to see this?

You are probably running enfuse with the openmap option turned on. http://wiki.panotools.org/Hugin_FAQ#Enblend-Enfuse_OpenMP_SSE_GPU:_which_one_is_the_right_one_for_me.3F Try switching to enfuse with the "image cache" option instead (incompatible with openmap, so it has to be one or the other).
