What control point detector did you use? You can check which one is default in the preferences. 30 images should not pose a problem really.
As far as I understand, APSCpp and Panomatic follow a different approach when it comes to matching images. Panomatic tries to match every pair of images separately, while APSCpp collects all control points in one big tree and matches all images at once, at least the more recent versions by Tom Sharpless. Correct? Anyway 30 images isn't really that big a number, so they should both be able to cope with that. BTW I'm using Panomatic most of the times, and sometimes when I first start up Hugin (on a Windows restart) Panomatic crashes when run. If I then restart Hugin and try again, it works correctly. Not sure if it's a bug or a configuration problem, but could it be you're experiencing the same thing? -- Bart On 20 aug, 23:53, Joel B <[email protected]> wrote: > Bart: I tried the "Align" button, and Hugin eventually froze and > became nonrespondent, and I think crashed - I was guessing because of > the sheer number of unmatched pairs it was trying to match.
