makes it faster and decreases memory from 3.7GB to 3.2GB. It also helps to
not completely block my laptop.

I also used the new --snapshot_threads and set it to 3.
However, pv still uses all 4 cores/threads and when I "time" the command it
is exactly the same as without this parameter.

enfuse/enblend uses OpenMP.

I do not entirely understand what you mean. Do you mean I should erase some
unwanted part in one of my bracketed images? or does pv that? Or do you
have to do that in the live view?
This is really interesting. I personally like sunrises and sunsets. You
mostly need bracketed sets to get a good dynamic range.
They sometimes contain unwanted parts or enfuse (up til now my used
program) does not pick the part I want. I sometimes fall back on hugin for
its use of masks. (enfuse does understand masks, but I do have to create
them in hugin so I can just as well finish in hugin)

So: Do you have such images (with pto) as example that shows this
functionality?
