    Adobe Photoshop® TIFF Technical Note 3 April 8, 2005 Adobe Photoshop® TIFF Technical Note 3 April 8, 2005 This document describes additions to the TIFF specification to improve support for floating point values. Readers are advised to cross reference terms and discussions found in this document with the TIFF 6.0 specification (TIFF6.pdf), the TIFF Technical Note for Adobe PageMaker® 6.0 (TIFF-PM6.pdf), and the File Formats Specification for Adobe Photoshop® (Photoshop File Formats.pdf). Page 1 of 5 Adobe Photoshop® TIFF Technical Note 3 April 8, 2005 16 and 24 bit Floating Point Values Introduction This section describes the format of floating point data with BitsPerSample of 16 and 24. Field: SampleFormat Tag: 339 (153.H) Type: SHORT Count: N = SamplesPerPixel Value: 3 = IEEE Floating point data Field: BitsPerSample Tag: 258 (102.H) Type: SHORT Count: N = SamplesPerPixel Value: 16 or 24 16 and 24 bit floating point values may be used to minimize file size versus traditional 32 bit or 64 bit floating point values. The loss of range and precision may be acceptable for many imaging applications. The 16 bit floating point format is designed to match the HALF data type used by OpenEXR and video graphics card vendors. Implementation 16 bit floating point values 16 bit floating point numbers have 1 sign bit, 5 exponent bits (biased by 16), and 10 mantissa bits. The interpretation of the sign, exponent and mantissa is analogous to IEEE-754 floating-point numbers. The 16 bit floating point format supports normalized and denormalized numbers, infinities and NANs (Not A Number).

It’s now the preferred output format for most 3D renderers and is starting to become the standard for digital film scanning and printing too. But while many programs have basic support for the format, hardly any provide full access to all of its capabilities. And OpenEXR is still being developed!new compression strategies and other features are being added while some big application developers are not interested in keeping up. And that’s where ProEXR comes in.

I needed a program to convert image files in the OpenEXR format to files in the Portable Pixmap format. So I wrote a program called exrtoppm. It resembles some of the other conversion programs which are part of the Netpbm suite of Portable (Bit, Gray, Pix)map programs. It is a command line program. I use it on Microsloth Winders; it should also work on unix-like systems, though I haven’t compiled it there, much less used it.

A Mathematical Quality Index represent images up to a dynamic range of about 3.5 magnitudes Additional desired properties are of course symmetry and in luminance, even higher ranges are more efficiently represented non-negativity; furthermore, the index should be zero if and by floating-point number formats. In this work, the author presents the approach taken by JPEG-XR for compressing such only if reference and distorted image are identical. The mean data, and shows that this method when applied to JPEG 2000 square error defined in the following satisfies all these condi- generates equally good results.

  • Release Notes for 10/01/2020-10/31/2020 for Builds
    GIT for Cinelerra-GG has the following changes from 08/01/2021-08/31/2021 A forum post by fary54 concerning an upgrade of the Debian O/S from 10 to 11 and a new install of Ardour on 11 has uncovered a crash problem that could affect other operating system upgrades and application installs. Basically your setting of LV2_PATH in $HOME/.bcast5/Cinelerra_rc may have to be edited to revert to the default of $CIN_DAT/lv2. Find more information in the Manual. Andrew R Contributions: A fix is now in so that when using In/Out pointers on an empty track/location, “attach effect” correctly adds the plugin. FFmpeg has been upgraded from 4.3 to 4.4 since Andrew provided the necessary patch revisions and location of the tgz file. It includes some new audio/video plugin filters: chromanr, afreqshift, aphaseshift, adenorm, asupercut, asubcut, asuperpass, asuperstop, shufflepixels, tmidequalizer, estdif, epx, shear, kirsch, colortemperature, colorcontrast, colorcorrect, colorize, aexciter, exposure, monochrome . FAST_SPEED and SLOW_SPEED variables can be added to $HOME/.bcast5/Cinelerra_rc if you want to change the default Fast Forward speed to be different from the default of double speed and Slow Forward speed to be different from the default of ½ speed. Editing this file can be destructive. A new choice of EXR Sequence is now available for Background Rendering File Format in Settings, Preferences, Performance tab. For libvpx, the build now disables building unit-tests and examples, thus saving quite a lot of disk space and some compile time. Another minor code change that should have no user impact is the addition of “const” for AVCodec.

  • Understanding EXR Data Compression
    Understanding EXR Data Compression Information compiled by Nicolas Dufresne for Rainbox Productions and Rainbox Laboratory. Contact us if you see any mistake or have suggestions for this document. https://rainboxlab.org Many thanks to Dino Muhić for his expertise about DWA. When using the OpenEXR format, it may be hard to determine what is the best data compression to use, and the question is raised very often. This document is an attempt to answer it, depending on what is your need with the file and what type of image you’re storing. A compression is said to be the best for a specific need when its read or write speeds better fit the application, and the file size is the smallest available. Types of images In this document, we’re distinguishing between the following different types of images: Grainy video or animation Photographic images (including realistic CGI) or animation with grain Video Photographic images (including realistic CGI) without grain Animation, Graphics Highly stylized images such as 2D Animation, Motion Graphics, stylized 3D Animation, or 3D passes such as Z-Depth, Normal... Solid colors, large flat areas Images mostly consisting of solid colors, such as alpha or id channels Texture maps Multi-Resolution files Summary Lossy (final) exports Especially for final exports, you probably don’t need lossless compression, and with the right settings, the exported file size can be quite small with just a very small reduction of quality, and the Master or backup of your movie can be stored this way. In this case, DWAA (with a small compression level) is very efficient in all cases.

    95 6. Compositing workflows This chapter of the User’s Guide contains documentation and tutorials specific to offline compositing. In other words, what you’ll find here is concerned with post-production work rather than live video. Pro Pixels – working in raw YUV video, Cineon/DPX and OpenEXR Conduit is an inherently floating-point based compositing system: it treats pixels as real numbers that can take any possible value. This is a paradigm shift from traditional digital imaging systems because Conduit effectively guarantees that your images won’t suffer from loss of dynamic range or clipping of highlights, regardless of how many effects and operations are performed on them. To make full use of Conduit’s pervasive floating-point support, it becomes critical to have direct access to image data stored in the bewildering range of file formats and color spaces that are used in the real world of professional video and film production. On the input side, it’s necessary to be able to get pixels into Conduit in “raw” form (bypassing any conversions that are typically performed by media services like QuickTime). On the output side, it needs to be possible to store pixels in a variety of file formats making full use of the maximum precision allowed by each format. Many compositing tasks like extracting a green-screen key become easier and will deliver better results when you’re working as close to the source material as possible. PixelConduit introduces a number of features that will get the best out of your footage and also make it easier to integrate Conduit’s live floating-point rendering capabilities into film and video workflows: • Realtime playback of image sequences with full color precision • Import & export of raw floating-point YUV footage in QuickTime files (this allows e.g.
