Hi!

I'm using Hugin.2012.0.0 on Windows 7 64bits to stich a long panorama of 33 16bit tifs.
I'm using the fix at https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!msg/hugin-ptx/tf6Qiz7F7tI/nXtRSv_jUZ4J and control points are found.
I get the error "linefind.exe has stopped working" and so far I did not manage to find a fix for it on the Internet.
Any clue what I should do?

My experience is that linefind doesn't work on 16-bit images.

Hi!
I did manage to stich a number of other panoramas with 16bit tifs. Isn't Hugin always using linefind then?

What happens with linefind and 16-bit tiffs is linefind finds no
vertical lines. If you convert the 16-bit tiffs to 8-bit, linefind finds
vertical lines in them.

What I do is make a set of 8- and 16-bit tiffs (with identical filenames
in separate folders), do my control point finding on the 8-bit tiffs,
then copy the resulting PTO file into the folder with the 16-bit tiffs.

I thought linefind silently failing on 16-bit tiffs had been fixed?

After the fix the example you provided at groups.google.com/group/
hugin-ptx/browse_thread/thread/65b9f0b4b3f24cd0 did work for me. There
was no feedback, so the issue was solved for me. But instead of
testing, you did nagging with the issue in nearly all threads of the
last days. This is the first feedback after more than a half year to
the fix.
So please test again and provide more and new details (maybe with a
further example, because the example you provided works for me)

I'm using the version that Debian Sid offers: 2011.4.0.cf9be9344356. It
doesn't have the fix. Was the fixed version ever packaged for Debian? Or
was everything kind of on hold because the 2012 release was coming?

If you want to have a go at the fix mentined, you either have to use
2012.0.0+dfsg-1 from Debian/experimental or to have to roll your own
2012.0 version. Because Debian is in a freeze in preparation for the
wheezy release, 2012.0 won't probably get into sid anymore.

Just enabled experimental repository. When I force version Hugin to the
one from experimental, Synaptic tells me that hugin will be removed.
Let's try it and see what happens .. yup, Hugin's removed. Disabled
experimental repository, reinstalled Hugin from Sid, and it's back with
the 2011 version ... so doing it via Debian experimental repository
doesn't work.

Guess I'll wait. My workaround takes extra time but it works.

something like

apt-get install hugin=2012.0.0+dfsg-1 hugin-data=2012.0.0+dfsg-1 hugin-tools=2012.0.0+dfsg-1

should work.

Thanks, Andreas, that worked.
