Re: [Oiio-dev] Any Nuke authors out there?
That code listing doesn't appear to examine the cinfo.density_unit field at all. Also, nothing in the JFIF spec indicates that if density_unit is 0, the density fields suddenly switch to mean the inverse. As far as I can tell, it just means that the units are unknown/unspecified, but it's still a density (1/length). > On May 19, 2016, at 2:57 PM, Kevin Wheatley> wrote: > > > > Sent on the go... > >> On 19 May 2016, at 22:48, Jonathan Egstad wrote: >> >> >> Nuke's JPEG reader/writer is interpreting the xdensity and ydensity fields >> as sizes, not densities. > > But does it not depend on the other header field if the units header has a > non zero value to be interpreted as a density, else it is an aspect ratio... > > Which I could see as 2:1 meaning make a wide image...

Re: [Oiio-dev] Any Nuke authors out there?
The industry did not evolve in a scientifically rigorous way. ;) On May 19, 2016, at 2:43 PM, Larry Gritzwrote: Yeah, I'm fine with whatever they want to call it internally. OpenEXR/ImfStandardAttributes.h agrees with me: // // xDensity -- horizontal output density, in pixels per inch. // The image's vertical output density is xDensity * pixelAspectRatio. // When I make an exr file with ydensity=xdensity*pixelaspectratio, and a par=2, I get a wide image in Nuke. When I make a JPEG with ydensity=xdensity*pixelaspectratio and par=2, I get a skinny image in Nuke. Nuke's JPEG reader/writer is interpreting the xdensity and ydensity fields as sizes, not densities. But then again, so are PhotoShop, ffmpeg, and rv. OIIO is the only package that seems to take the JFIF spec on face value. I don't see how we have much choice other than to also be wrong, we certainly can't make files that will come out wrong in many VFX apps. > On May 19, 2016, at 2:21 PM, Jonathan Egstad wrote: > > If it makes you feel any better, the Nuke notation is based on film > terminology where the anamorphic value refers to the projector lens stretch, > not the camera lens squeeze. i.e. 2.0 means x2 in display width. > > Typically anamorphic is not referred to as 0.5... > > -j > > On May 19, 2016, at 1:34 PM, Larry Gritz wrote: > > No, but it doesn't agree after all! > > When I instruct oiiotool to write an OpenEXR with pixel aspect of 2.0, Nuke > correctly displays it as wide. > > Same with TIFF. > > But when oiiotool writes a JPEG with pixel aspect of 2.0 -- I *THINK* I'm > doing it right, there is no JPEG aspect field, in infers it from the x and y > densities (pixels per inch), so I set ydensity = aspect*xdensity -- then Nuke > displays it as as skinny rather than wide. > > Apparently, PhotoShop, rv, and ffmpeg all agree with Nuke. > > So it must be me who is wrong here!

Re: [Oiio-dev] Any Nuke authors out there?
If it makes you feel any better, the Nuke notation is based on film terminology where the anamorphic value refers to the projector lens stretch, not the camera lens squeeze. i.e. 2.0 means x2 in display width.

Re: [Oiio-dev] Any Nuke authors out there?
No, but it doesn't agree after all! When I instruct oiiotool to write an OpenEXR with pixel aspect of 2.0, Nuke correctly displays it as wide. Same with TIFF. But when oiiotool writes a JPEG with pixel aspect of 2.0 -- I *THINK* I'm doing it right, there is no JPEG aspect field, in infers it from the x and y densities (pixels per inch), so I set ydensity = aspect*xdensity -- then Nuke displays it as as skinny rather than wide. Apparently, PhotoShop, rv, and ffmpeg all agree with Nuke. So it must be me who is wrong here!

Re: [Oiio-dev] Any Nuke authors out there?
(typing on a small iphone atm so I'll check out the thread in more detail later) You're correct about what Nuke's format.pixel_aspect() is - it's the correction factor from pixel-storage to real-world coordinates. So a Nuke format with pa 2.0 is typically an anamorphic image where the stored pixels are half their real-world width and require stretching out horizontally when viewed. As for the jpeg reader/writer I wrote a pa 2.0 checkerboard jpeg out of Nuke and it displays correctly in ffmpeg's ffplay viewer - i.e. not squished. For reference DWA's internal viewing tool ignores the density vars and displays a squished image. So I think you're interpretation is correct in OIIO, and Nuke, RV & ffmpeg agree with it. -j On May 19, 2016, at 10:43 AM, Larry Gritzwrote: Hi, Jonathan, thanks! If you could quickly read over the discussion in this PR: https://github.com/OpenImageIO/oiio/pull/1412 (It's not overly long or technical, but it might make you scratch your head a bit.) The question is: Do you know anything about what Nuke is up to in the cited JPEG code? Do you believe Nuke is computing the aspect ratio for JPEG files backwards (versus the JFIF spec), or do you think that my interpretation of JFIF's fields are incorrect? If Nuke is wrong, does that mean that we'd better do it wrong, too, or be forever doomed to have the aspect ratio being mangled when Nuke reads our files or vice versa? Or is there another solution you can think of that doesn't involve our having to introduce a bug? (I don't imagine that the Foundry will deem it practical to suddenly change Nuke's interpretation at this stage, even if it's technically wrong.) > On May 19, 2016, at 10:02 AM, Jonathan Egstad wrote: > > Hey Larry, > I'm one of the original Nuke authors but not with the Foundry - if you need > help with general plugin coding questions maybe I can help. > > Cheers, > -j > > On May 18, 2016, at 10:18 AM, Larry Gritz wrote: > > Anybody from the Foundry who works on Nuke reading this? -- Larry Gritz l...@larrygritz.com ___ Oiio-dev mailing list Oiio-dev@lists.openimageio.org http://lists.openimageio.org/listinfo.cgi/oiio-dev-openimageio.org ___ Oiio-dev mailing list Oiio-dev@lists.openimageio.org http://lists.openimageio.org/listinfo.cgi/oiio-dev-openimageio.org
Re: [Oiio-dev] Any Nuke authors out there?
Hey Larry, I'm one of the original Nuke authors but not with the Foundry - if you need help with general plugin coding questions maybe I can help.
