Blink - Wrong Image Geometry
« on: 2018 December 21 23:10:15 »
Hello,

Seems like Blink is having issues with auto-rotated image in new version.  The dimensions of the photos are identical, but the horizontal and vertical dimensions are flipped.  Has anyone else experienced this?  I just ran into it tonight.

Thanks,

Guillermo

you should probably have the raw decoder configured to not auto-rotate images... it does not make sense to auto-rotate images for astrophotography.

I guess I can set that in the camera settings, but it was never an issue before.  Is it possibly due to to the move away DCRaw?

You can disable automatic frame rotation in RAW Preferences (Format Explorer > RAW (double click)).

Bear in mind that frame dimensions can vary among different raw decoders. If you are mixing images previously decoded by dcraw with others decoded by LibRAW, chances are that you have problems as a result of geometry differences.

Thanks, Juan - that's more than likely the issue.
