NTFS and FAT32 are not problems. Problem is with TIFF file limitations of 4GB size.
I am not able to gigapixel images with hugin. But I have an innovative idea of doing it with hugin. Idea is all about tiles and than making a Mosaic. 1.If we are able to get gigapixel image rendered by hugin in Tiles. Lets say hugin renders a gigapixel image in 8000x4000 tiles TIFF parts. I have a 89361 x 22554 file and hugin splits image into small tiles and stitches it in 8kx4k tiles. 2. Convert TIFF tiles to jpg with GIMP or any other software. 3. A script to make a mosaic from these tiles. I hope hugin can do that. So it can be a feature request? Well Autopanogiga provides .kro or krpano raw formats. These formats are than splitted into smaller tiles and after conversion they are joined back. So if this is solution than why not stitching software does it at stitching time. It will be a trend setting feature by Huginers:) Regards, Emaad On Wed, Nov 16, 2011 at 5:29 AM, Carlos Eduardo G. Carvalho (Cartola) < [email protected]> wrote: > I never did a gigapan.
