20.10 has 5.74.

[darktable-user] Iris Xe shows some OpenCL oomph

Hi,

I just tested darktable 3.4 on new (to me) 11th gen. Core i5 and with 
Intel's Gen12LP (LP: low power) GPU. The latter seems to cut processing 
time by >50%, from 12s to 5s. This is on Dell XPS 13 Dev. Ed. Ubuntu 
laptop. All open source. More details on

Re: [darktable-user] exiv2, darktable, AVIF, metadata, and ExifTool

2021-02-05 Thread Top Rock Photography
Okay, so here is how QT/KDE works… to some extent. Image support is on a
system-wide basis, not per application.

To get AVIF support, I had to update ECM & Cmake, then install the
qt5-avif-plugin. (This means compile all three). Well that did not work, so
I compiled (again) Gwenview. Still did not work. [ASIDE] Ubuntu LTS can be
a pain to have sometimes. By the time I am done with all my compiles, it
will no longer be ubuntu!  [/ASIDE]

It turns out that the install script for the qt5 plugin did not put things
in the places where they are supposed to be. So, I had to copy them
manually to the correct locations.

Voila!!! Gwenview works!

…sorta kinda. No EXIF data since gwenview uses EXIV2 and not ExifTool.
Exiv2 version 0.27.3 (and, if I understand correctly, version 0.28.0, when
it comes out) does not have support for AVIF metadata. [ASIDE] I remember
not so long ago, having to compile exiv2 version 0.27.x just so that I can
see metadata in WebP files on my Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. [/ASIDE] Using ExifTool,
I can see my EXIF and XMP metadata. (The XMP metadata, I had to copy into
it from a JPEG JFIF file, using ExifTool).

Thanks to Milos Komarcevic for pointing out that the only reason I have
EXIF data in the AVIF files in the first place is because libavif handles
the writing of the metadata to begin with, so Exiv2 is not involved.

Thank you, Patrick.

That made me investigate. There exists an AVIF plugin for QT5. This plugin
requires ECM version 5.70.0 or greater. Ubuntu LTS (20.04) has version
5.68.0.

So two more compiles to try; first, ECM (Extra CMake Modules) version
5.70.0 (or higher), then the qt5 AVIF plugin. Then Gwenview may work….

…Except that I may also have to bring KF5 (and all its parts) up to version
5.70.0 (or higher), also. Currently they are at versions 5.68.0.

I will let you know how that works out.

Re: [darktable-user] exiv2, darktable, AVIF, metadata, and ExifTool

2021-02-05 Thread Top Rock Photography
According to the Geeqie website, they only support…
3FR, ANI, APM, ARW, BMP, CR2, CRW, CUR, DNG, ERF, GIF, ICNS, ICO,
JPE/JPEG/JPG, JPS, KDC, MEF, MPO, MOS, MRW, NEF, ORF, PEF, PTX,
PBM/PGM/PNM/PPM, PNG, QIF/QTIF (QuickTime Image Format), RAF, RAW, RW2,
SR2, SRF, SVG/SVGZ, TGA/TARGA, TIF/TIFF, WMF, XBM, XPM

I think that I remember from before, that they did not support WebP.
Currently, unless otherwise requested, my final images are in WebP format.
Hence, Geeqie is not an option for me.

In the future, my workflow may possibly end with AVIF files. That is why I
am eager for things to advance in that direction. It may not happen, and
that is just fine, but considering the huge collab which exists within AOM,
it may be inevitable.

Okay, I compiled gwenview 20.12.2, and, during compilation, it seems that
it uses exiv2, and only recognises FITS, JPEG (JFIF/SPIFF ???), PNG,
SVG,TIFF, & WebP. No indication of AVIF support.

Installed, and found no AVIF support. (& if it did, would not recognise the
metadata).

Will try with  Geeqie per Šarūnas Burdulis.
