BarracudaGUI for cr2hdr dual iso raw post-processing (Windows XP/7/8)

[sepa]

Hi  beachman,
your ini file looks good.

Make sure that the following files are in the same folder:

• cr2hdr-hot.exe
• exiftool.exe
• dcraw.exe

Whish DualISO CR2 file do you mean? Can you give me the link to the CR2 file?

[beachman]

Hey Sepa

Thanks for the reply and here are a couple of files to work with. I do have all three application located in the same folder with the following details:

cr2hdr-hot.exe   Date: 01/26/2014    324 kb
exiftool.exe        Date: 07/13/2013  4993 kb
dcraw.exe          Date: 08/01/2013    536 kb

Dual2419.cr2  is a photo that I took with my Canon 7D http://sdrv.ms/1bwLUt9
0R0A0640.cr2 is an image taken with a Canon 5D used by a1ex on his thread to illustrate Dual_ISO http://sdrv.ms/1bwMjvz

Both CR2 images can be converted to DNG with just the cr2hdr-hot.exe application located in the same folder as the above mentioned files. Converting both files with BarracudaGUI, gives me the errors as mentioned before and then copies them into the export folder as CR2 files after conversion process has failed.

Did you test with the latest cr2hdr.exe builds, I kept getting those overflows.

[beachman]

Yes I have also tried it with the latest cr2hdr.exe Dated: 01/23/2014 Size: 326 kb and get the same result running the conversion through BarracudaGUI. I'm guessing it could be two possible problems:

1. I have a version of exiftools.exe that cannot read the proper information.
2. The required EXIF information is not within the raw CR2 files.

This is just my educated guess and could be something totally different. If someone else can successfully convert the files I have posted through there install of BarracuadGUI, I would then be able to eliminate some possible scenarios. Thanks in advance!!

Below is a link to a screen shot showing the run-time process of BarracudaGUI, hope it helps to solve this problem:

Nice program sepa, thanks.

I would like to request 2 options please.

An option to move non dual_iso files, or not move them.
Log output from cr2hdr.

Cheers.

Is it possible to process dual iso movie DNGs via this app? Seems it opens only cr2s...

I can not get this picture processed with BarracudaGUI.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6fybg1i2ta6149/IMG_2524.CR2

It is taken with 650D and BarracudaGUI just copy this image.
I have taken several images and I have no problem with them in BarracudaGUI.

Hey Spider

Tried processing your file and get the same errors that I have been getting with DualISO photos taken on my Canon 7D. Do you get the same run time error as indicated in my earlier post? I hope Sepa can get this resolved as it looks like a great application and I would like to incorporate this GUI in my post processing workflow.

[Audionut]

Do these files work with the command line application?

[spider]

Do you get the same run time error as indicated in my earlier post?

No error, it just copy the file.

Do these files work with the command line application?

Actually the command line never worked for me so I used the BarracudaGUI



Which means the command "dcraw"(exiftool) is wrong written or could not be found.
dcraw.exe, exiftool.exe and cr2hdr-hot.exe are located in the same folder.
My OS is Windows 8.1

[Audionut]

You're using an outdated version of cr2hdr.

[spider]

The new version changed nothing. It still does not work.

[Audionut]

In that case, you should consider making a bug report here.

Hey.. excuse my ignorance.. does this work with dual iso video? If so.. will implement it in MLV Converter! Cheers!

[spider]

When I try to process a picture which is located on the HDD I get an error and the picture is just copied.
But if the picture is located on the SD card the processing works fine.

[beachman]

Spider might be onto something as I also get the same result!!

[engardeknave]

I have yet to get this to work for the same reasons. I use my vbscript every day though.

You have space character in folder name - "Meine Bilder". Change it with underscore "Meine_Bilder" and the problem will go away.

[beachman]

Thanks szDE

Took all spaces out of the folder names and BarracudaGUI works like it should.

From
D:\Canon Tools\Dual_ISO Raw
To

Wah...  i forgot to put the dll in the zip file. Please download again.

[Audionut]

Thanks for the update.

edit:  On my Win8 box, it's crashing as soon as the DNG's are created.

[sepa]

What kind of crash? Screenshot please.
