Hi, I would like to share some of the notes I have put together for using Filmic. Filmic V4 is very easy to use. Avoid making it unnecessarily complicated. I rarely use the highlights reconstruction as bleaching highlights should be avoided in the camera in the first place. I love Filmic V4

Indeed Patrick, the default in the current version is: opencl_synch_cache=active module The option I would advise to test for response time comfort during finetuning in a 2nd pass is: opencl_synch_cache=true. That is if it does not compromise too hard overall response time. Which is ok on my

Gian, Good to hear that. And yes I expect that that XEON processor will surely help (*). GPU performance can be further boosted by optimization of the opencl settings in file darktablerc. You can read about that in the darktable manual. But possibly adequate parameters for a

Marc, thank you very much for your warning! As you see, the first step is done, and I can see a huge improvement in browsing through the lighttable with the GTX 1650. I was wondering too if it is worth to go to 4K, I wouldn't like to go back to square one, performance wise. Maybe

[darktable-user] Tone equaliser and response time during zooming/panning on 4K display (dt 3.2.1-Windows 10)

2020-11-20 Thread Marc Cabuy
Gian-Luca, Just a little warning about purchasing a 4K display.  You indeed will need a good GPU. But still there is (or are) module(s) that are fully cpu-bound. That’s the case with tone equaliser. Interactive response when zooming and panning in the darkroom may suffer from poor response time on

Hi, Sorry for such a long message, but I think, it's really a tough topic, which is so interlinked that it can't be split into pieces. Since quite a while I'm trying to get started with the new modules in darktable 3, but without success. The promise of gracefully dealing with high dynamic range
