Hello! Stereomaker is my favorite app for stereo alignment. Currently I am shooting 3D video and I need an app to align it frame-by-frame. If I use stereomaker to align frames, each frame aligns a bit randomly, so the whole video twitches. Could you please add an interpolation setting for multi-conversion? For example, if you align each 25th frame and interpolating alignment values between them, the video looks smoothly. I've been writing my own application for that purpose for more than 2 month, but I still can't achieve such an excelent quality as stereomaker can. I tried opencv - rectification, rigid transform, ECC, homography. Nothing gives me a perfect result. I think, I need help. What algorythm do you use?
Thanks in advance. You can reply me by email.

　Show Grid control is wonky　　 Melinda Green　　 2021年7月8日(木) 13：12 　　 HP　Mail

I suggest you get rid of the "Show Grid" checkbox and make ctrl-g toggle both the grid window and the grid visibility. Right now I'm forced to toggle the check box manually each time I want to toggle it which seems silly.

In short, ctrl-g to show the window and the grid. Then ctrl-g closes the window and turns off the grid. Simple.

I had never used the grid view before. But I understand what you are saying.
SPM Ver6.16 is now available. Please check it out.

　Great Software　　 Steve Crawford　　 2021年6月13日(日) 21：52 　　　Mail

This is great software. Is the source code accessible? I'd love to explore and possibly add a couple of features.

When Windows updates to their latest version, I have problems with SPM. With the new version of windows, SPM loads just fine and I can use all the functions and see a page flipped 3D image. BUT when I push ESC. to get back to the SPM work area, my computer locks up and all I see on the screen is the cursor that will move with the mouse. I have to shut down my computer to get the desktop back. In the old version of Windows, SPM works just fine returning tothe SPM work page when I close the page flipped 3D image.

　一括変換時の合わせマーク　　 Takashi　　 2021年5月20日(木) 21：53 　　

今年、任天堂3DSLLが手に入ったため、手持ちの写真(FIJIFILMの3Dカメラ
で撮影)をステレオフォトメーカーで3DSLL向けに一括変換し、立体視を楽
しんでおりました。

友人に3DSLLを見せたところ好評で、裸眼でも見てみたいと要望されたた
め、いくつかの写真をLRL形式にしてみせたところ、これまた好評でした。

調子にのって、大量の写真をLRL形式に変換しようと思ったのですが、
１ファイルの変換では「合わせマーク」を入れることができるのですが、
一括変換では「合わせマーク」を入れることができませんでした。

お願いです。
裸眼ではピント合わせのための「合わせマーク」が非常に重要なので、
一括変換でも「合わせマーク」を入れるようにできませんでしょうか？
何卒宜しくお願い致します。

一括変換で出力形式をLRLにしても合わせマークは入りませんが、LR/RL形式であれば、合わせマークを使う設定にしておけば、一括変換で合わせマークが入ります。

回答ありがとうございます。
人によって、LR/RLの見方の得意な方が違うので、2つの形式にするよりもLRL形式にしたいのです。

　　　 Masuji Suto　　 2021年5月22日(土) 15：43 　　

LRLもLR/RLも、どちらも平行法、交差法の両対応です。
特に、Fujiの3Dカメラで撮った横配置の写真をLRLに並べると、アップしていただいた写真のように極端に横長の写真になってしまいますが、LR/RLであれば、元の写真と同じ縦横比なので、ずっと見やすいと思いますが、いかがですか？私は、LRLを使う事はありません。
サンプル写真は、上が平行法、下が交差法になっています。

提案ありがとうございます。
A4用紙に印刷もしたいと思っていまして、
2*2を4個並べるよりも、1*3を5個並べた方が見やすいですね。

　 AI depth estimation method　　 Sergiy　　 2021年5月22日(土) 1：46 　　　Mail

Create depth map from Single Image(Google AI) - is unvaluable feature of your application.
Any chance to implement depth estimation method other than "GoogleAI" (i.e. https://github.com/nianticlabs/monodepth2)?

　Problem with selecting CODEC　　 J. Clement　　 2021年4月22日(木) 21：21 　　　Mail

SPM defaults to jpg, but for future editing I need TIF. After starting SPM it erases the file name the first time I select TIF. It outputs the image with name ".TIF". If I continue and edit other files it remembers the TIF selection and doesn't delete the file name. If I notice the deleted file name and CANCEL, I can then click output and it will remember the TIF selection as well as the file name.

At this point in time most image editors can handle 16bit/color images, so it is time that SPM should be updated to do this. 16bit color is needed for adjusting very dark or highly contrasted images. Scanning and editing Kodachrome slides have such a high range of density that 8bit images do not adequately capture them, but the 16bit images can be adjusted to make them look good on digital displays or prints. Being able to automatically align a 3D slide before editing is invaluable as the defects are easiest seen in 3D, but that down scales to 8bit. As a result I have to adjust the alignment in a separate quality photo editor and only do use SPM before the final output.

　　　 Masuji Suto　　 2021年5月6日(木) 18：59 　　

As you know, all the internal processing of SPM is done in 8bit. 16bit support is the same as creating a new application, and there are no plans to do so at the moment.

　Full Editing with SPM　　 J. Clement　　 2021年4月22日(木) 22：11 　　　Mail

While SPM is invaluable for editing 3D photos, it is not really a full editor with the range of plug-ins and adjustments of a good reasonably priced editor like Paintshop Pro or Gimp... To edit scans of 3D photos I have to switch back and forth between my photo editor and SPM to view in 3D, find defects, and then correct them. This is very time consuming as I have to save before switching. Since photo editors do not support 3D it would be a great time saver to have some SPM features inside a standard photo editor.

This could be accomplished by having the most valuable features of SPM as Photoshop plug-ins which are accepted by most every good photo editor. The most valuable features that I use are: Auto alignment, 3D display, and Auto Color Adjustment. The Easy alignment is also occasionally used for scans which SPM mangles in Auto alignment. To be useful these should support both 16bit/color and 64 bit code. The 3D display would be most useful if it could get around the lag time for invocation, but that might be impossible in a plug-in. Yes, I realize there is a way to invoke an external editor but that is cumbersome, slow, and will not work with my 16bit color images. 16bit color is needed to edit Kodachrome scans and other extremely contrasty or dark images.

I have never used PhotoShop, nor do I plan to.

　Windows 10 warning　　 Daniel　　 2021年5月6日(木) 11：13 　　

Just downloaded latest versions and Windows gives me a warning because of unknown editor so I need to confirm I want to take the risk to execute.

I guess this cannot be avoided?

　　　 Masuji Suto　　 2021年5月6日(木) 18：48 　　

Maybe, It is possible to embed digital signatures in executable files to prevent warnings from appearing, but this requires paying a large fee to a certification company every year. and that company will not verify the software.
Since it is free software, I do not plan to spend money to get a digital signature.

　lenticular line pitch　　 Holger　　 2020年12月28日(月) 1：26 　　　Mail

Hi there,
for correct lenticular line pitch it is importend to calculate with decimal numbers.
For example: not only 60, but 60.24
Please change this in your program.
Thanks
Holger

I would appreciate this feature as well!
Thank you!
Daniel
