Color correction question

[leszekp]

I haven't been using the color correction option for the hshfitter, since it's not that critical for my main interest (lithic tools). Thought I'd give it a try - checked the Advanced Options box, selected a gray card image (jpg), and tried processing an RTI data set. I got the following error message:

 

"Number of files found given prefix : 48

 Light positions on file (0) does not match the number of files for viewpoint (48) 

 

Problem while reading command line arguments"

 

If I process with Advanced Options unchecked, it works fine. This is on a Windows 10 system, lots of RAM and processing power.

 

I tried using color correction with hshfitter directly in the command line, but that was unsuccessful as well. In the latter case, I probably wasn't structuring the command correctly - the syntax and examples you get when you type "hshfitter" on the command line were difficult for me to understand, and I couldn't find any other documentation.

The color correction option was an experimental thing, and really was to solve a problem with wildly varying color temperatures in a research dome. We recommend not using any of the advanced options, because they aren't well documented and have known errors.

Thanks, Carla. Will stick to regular color correction (custom white balance and color checker card) if necessary.
