HdrComposition fails with error with .jpg files
« on: 2011 June 19 14:42:47 »
... but works fine when I first convert the files to fits. Example files on http://www.cs.huji.ac.il/~danix/hdr/pages/belgium.html (1/1000 etc.). Screenshot of errror message attached. On Fedora14-x64.

I think that it uses incremental readings... so FITS should be the only format supported, just like in ImageIntegration.

Hi Georg,

I can reproduce this, but still have no idea why this happens. Looks like some kind of obscure problem with jpeglib. The same images can be opened without problems in PI. I'll try to solve this ASAP.

@Carlos: HDRC does not use incremental reading. Otherwise it wouldn't allow selecting JPEG images ;)

@Juan: I though that the problem WAS that it allowed selecting JPEG images XD
