Hi all, I am slowly working on the coolscan2 backend and I am looking at tiffscan for batch scanning.
What I see is that any frontend that would drive a batch scan should manage different type of feeder and pages. Probably the easier one is the ADF case where the scanner load/eject every page; but the trickier one is the stripe case: we may load/eject a stripe, but we need to batch frames inside the stripe. When a frontend offer parameters like --batch-from-page/frame and --batch-count, it should be able to understand what feeder is present and how to ask for a specific frame. So, my questions: is there already any standard for those action? Is there any defined rule for how to name a backend parameter like "--frame-number"? Is there any way to know what feeder types are available at a given time? Thanks, Giuseppe
