Hi Bruno, Please could you shed some light on this particular issue I keep running into. I've ran match-n-shift multiple times on the same set of 4 images and every time I get slightly different .pto files. I've done tests to check if the exif data is modified somehow after each run but that, thankfully, isn't happening. I'm not sure why this is happening, but I would extremely grateful if you could point me in the right direction.
This is the exact command i'm calling: match-n-shift -o output.pto -a -r -f 2 image1.jpg image2.jpg image3.jpg image4.jpg I can include the actual .pto files generated if you need to see them, but I don't want to take too much of your time as i'm sure you're a busy person, but if it'll help you understand my issue more in-depth, please let me know and i'll include them. Thank you for your time.
