linefit.exe crashes

[Ashwin Mudigonda]

Hi all, I just updated to the latest Hugin and it keeps crashing with
the linefit.exe while trying to stitch panoramas. I am using a 64 bit
machine running Windows 7.

I have another question. I am trying something different. I am trying
to stitch a panorama of panoramas! I used a lens at 40mm and crop
factor 1.62 to get a set of 4 panoramas. Now, I would like to stitch
those 4 into a vertorama and I am not sure what to enter when it
prompts for lens details. Any help here would be appreciated.

Others may be able to give better advice, but this may help.
I would save the panos in equirectangular and note the hfov of each, then
use that hfov when loading them back to stich the pano-pano.

Cheers,

I propose you create a mutlirow panorama from all your images in one
go. By optimizing the position of all images in relation to their
neighbours, you will find it much easier to get them all to fit
nicely. If you stich strips first, you lose flexibility, because now
images in the strips are rigidly linked and have less ability to adapt
than when you treat them individually. Have a look at
