I found this a little bit sad. Instead of merging the developing power everyone is working on its own code.

pv started out as a demo program for my b-spline interpolation library, vspline. Initially it was only displaying single images. Then I extended it to display synoptic views of several images, and the natural file format for this is PTO, which is widely used. So I extended pv to read PTO format. But all the code in pv and vspline is completely new, it does not rely on libpano or libhugin at all, and I can see no way of easily integrating it into hugin or it's helper programs.

Yes, it is easier to work on own code. But for the longer one it would be better to combine the developing skills and work on a common code base. This would also have the advantage that not all code needs to be written and debugging several times in several iterations.

The code base is totally different. pv and hugin code are quite incompatible, the only common ground is the use of PTO format. pv is a panorama viewer, and stitching is only a nice-to-have recent addition.

So please consider working at a common code base or at least port the improvements to enblend/enfuse.

I took nothing from enblend/enfuse but the idea of what I wanted and the choice of the Burt and Adelson image splining algorithm. My code is for embedded use in pv, and it's quite alien to enblend and enfuse, as I have explained in my reply to Monkey concerning the use of image pyramids. There is nothing to port as of yet.

If enblend/enfuse developers are interested in my new implementation of the B&A algorithm they are free to use it - it's all FOSS (GPL v3) and amply documented. For now I recommend to just play with my new code and to see if it works out fine - it's still experimental and may not turn out to be as good as the 'classic' implementation in enblend/enfuse. And enblend/enfuse have a much wider selection of parameters and variants and integrate well with hugin, so they will be the standard for some time to come, and they do well what they do.
