 It would be good to put the link at gimp.org.

There already is a link from the frontpage of www.gimp.org to Jimmac's

Re: [Gimp-user] How to merge two movies ?

2004-03-26 Thread Julien MOZZICONACCI
Hi all,

Thank you for your answer, I will try to make my point clearer.
I have two sets of one hundred frames (Frame1_0001  Frame1_0100 and
Frame2_0001  Frame2_0100). I can make two distinct movies with those
frames. I want to do only one movie of a hundred frames with each frame
Frame12_ being a juxtaposition of Frame1_ and Frame2_. That
is two say that I wish to create only one movie composed of the two
other ones playing simultanously.

I hope that I succeded in being clear.

Best regards.

Julien.

 Sounds like the GIMP is not finding the installed
 plug-ins at all. Which platform are you using? Are you
 using a pre-compiled version of the GIMP or did you
 compile your own?

 Is there any debug information available in the console?

 Sincerely,
 ./Brix

I had compiled Gimp as root. I operate as a regular user. 
First I discovered that the owner and group of all the Gimp 
software was 500, and not either root or my user name 
(safe.)  so I chowned everything in that directory to 
safe:users. 

Then I ran make install. I kept blowing up on permissions 
problems. So I changed permissions after each failure, 
mostly in /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib. Eventually I got a 
clean make install and the new Gimp has the plugins for 
different file types available.

However now I am having problems with Postscript:
Could not execute plug in Postscript
(/usr/local/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/postscript)
because it uses an obsolete version of the plug-in 
protocol.

I will go back to square 1, recompile and reinstall and see 
if that clears up the current problem. 



Bottom line, your suggestion that it was not finding the 
plug ins was correct. I still don't know why the original 
install had the screwy user and group codes. It is almost 
as if I were accessing another version of Linux on another 
partition.

[Gimp-user] Converting image to 16bpp?

2004-03-26 Thread David Brownlee
I'm trying to convert an image to 16bpp with dithering so it can
be used on a 16bit windows display. All the apps on my NetBSD box
happily dither a 32bit image for 16bit display, but Windows ends
up with the traditional 'banding' effect.

The two options I've found so far were:


1)  - Decompose the image into RGB
- For each component
- Convert to indexed with 32grey palette
- Convert back to greyscale
- Recompose channels and save.

  This gives an image with the right palette, but the
  mechanism is clumsy, and the dithering is done
  independently on each channel, which is obviously
  suboptimal


2)- Use GD to create png with all r5g5b5 values, then ImageMagick
convert -dither -map $palettefile $infile $outfile.

  This works, but the output quality is vastly inferiour
  to the Gimp.


Does anyone have an idea how do do this in gimp (or any other way
if necessary! :)

Thanks

easier there,

I'd say gimp-gap could do it.
Althoiug I have not played ostensively with GIMP-GAP to be that sure.
(/me likes filter all layers )
If anyone in the knows of GIMP GAP say it can't be done by the functionalities 
already there, I could write a Python-fu to handle that.

So, people who use/develop gimp-gap, can this merge be done?

 For merging two movies - you may want to check out blender, don't know if
 it does what your after, but looks like it might.

[Gimp-user] GIMP 2 WINDOWS FAILURE

2004-03-26 Thread Sigmascape1
Hi!

Just installed GIMP 2 on an WinXP Pro machine. 512MB RAM, plenty of hardrive space. 
GTK and GIMP seemed to install fine. I used GIMP a few times, then I experienced GIMP 
start-up problems, and eventually it failed to start each and every time I tried. Two 
menus would come up and then freeze eventually crash the app.

Any thoughts?

Install the gtk2.2[whatever]-devel package.  All
should be well after that.

 I'm still trying to install GIMP 2.0 on Mandrake
 9.2.
 
 Making no headway at all. Have made a summary of
 what I've been doing. If 
 anyone could shed light on this I would be VERY
 grateful. I have been doing 
 the below after reading the INSTALL documents that
 accompanies the GIMP2 
 source code download.
 
 1) atk 1.2.4 configures, makes and installs okay.
 2) pango 1.2.5 - configures, makes and installs
 okay.
 3) glib 2.2.3 configures, makes and installs okay.
 
 4)When ./configure is run for gtk+2.2.2 I get this
 error message at the end:
 
 checking for glib-2.0 = 2.1.4 atk = 1.0.1 pango =
 1.0.1... Package atk was 
 not found in the pkg-config search path.
 Perhaps you should add the directory containing
 `atk.pc'
 to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
 No package 'atk' found
 
 configure: error: Library requirements (glib-2.0 =
 2.1.4 atk = 1.0.1 pango 
 = 1.0.1) not met; consider adjusting the
 PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment 
 variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard
 prefix so pkg-config can find 
 them.
 
 Of course GIMP 2.0 won't build without gtk. So what
 do I do?
 
 Many thanks in advance
 
 Tom

 Just FYI: after a change of the protocol version number

I went to another Linux partition which had never had any 
form of gimp but the gimp 1.2.3 as installed by Slackware. 
I removed it using the Slack utility pkgtool. After some 
fussing around with permissions and a reboot I got Gimp 
2.0.0 to compile, run, and read and write Postscript files.  
I tested it under root and under my usual user name.

I still haven't got the glitches out of my primary 
partition, so when I need to use 2.0 I will just boot the 
other partition. There are some files hidden somewhere that 
I can't find that are preventing a usable product. I'll 
just wait until the next partition swap time and install 
2.0 from scratch.   

Thanks for all assistance.

If you run ldd /usr/local/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/postscript, you
should get a list of libraries which your plug-in is linking to.
In the list you might spot one with a 1.3 in the name. That's the
dodgy one :)

Dave.

do you have a /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libexif.pc  or is it in

If the latter, the quick and dirty answer is to copy it to /usr/lib/pkgconfig/
