Hey guys, hope i aint being a nuisance, but any update on the "bright dark detection error, iso blending didnt work" bug?
im really desperate for a fix
or would it be possible if the developers let us know if a fix is to be expected anytime soon, because if not we can move on from waiting and continue with an alternate method
update and notes and tutorial for the un educated people on the following problems:
"bright dark detection error, iso blending didnt work"
flickering when filmed with dual iso
using the older version:
2014.04.08\cr2hdr-20bit.exe, doesnt give the "bright dark detection error, iso blending didnt work" error
whilst
2014.05.06\cr2hdr-20bit.exe, DOES
so apply same levels in post yourself, as cr2hdr same levels parameter uses exiftool to apply same levels anyway
processes the 0 and 1 files, and to apply same levels i used, ExifToolGUI, run the program, navigate to first file of the sequence, on the right find BlackLevel and WhiteLevel, note down the values, select all the files (i found that if i select around 2000 files it doesnt process the command so theres a file ammount limitation, 1430 worked, so maybe 2k is the limit?) at top right of the gui program, click on exiftool direct, copy and paste:
-Exif:BlackLevel=2046
NOTE, the 2046 is the variable, enter the BlackLevel you noted down from first file, click on ok, itll process the files, and create a backup of the original files, if you dont want them backed up, go to options at top left > dont backup files when writing.
now repeat the procedure for the whitelevel:
-Exif:WhiteLevel=2046
again the 2046 is the variable, click on ok, once both the whitelevel and black level have been changed to match the first file of the sequence, there should be no flickering what so ever, i dont believe ACR caused the flickering in the first place, as when i applied ACR adjustments, even to extreme cases, like -100 highlights, +100 shadows, etc, no flickering was caused what so ever
