Thank you for your reply.
This is exactly what I want.
But unfortunately, I am not very good with Python scripting. Can I get help there?

General / Search for updates not working

« Last post by Landy on June 24, 2022, 04:44:40 AM »

I only recently discovered by accident that there was a 1.8.3 update uploaded in April.  Running 'check for updates' in Metashape kept telling me 'no update required'.  Now I have installed the update, Metashape tells me a I have an installed version more recent than the 'latest version'.  Presumably this is a server issue?
cheers

Hello mauovernet,

How do you monitor GPU activity on macOS, so that you see that it is not fully utilized?

Bug Reports / Re: Incremental image alignment on 1.8.3

Alexey,
I am getting this:

Matching photos...
Warning: Can't resume matching without keypoints
Estimating camera locations...
Estimating camera locations...

So it seems like keypoints on the previously aligned photos are not being detected (even though they are present).  But strange it is also in 1.7.5.......

Hi,
Yes, keypoints are all there, and the "keep keypoint" option is always enabled.
It's very wierd.  I loaded the metashape file back in 1.7.5 which I have kept installed, and the outcome is identical.  I cannot remember whether the file was saved from 1.8.3, maybe keypoints are treated differently, I don't know.
I wanted to avoid a full realignment if possible, at least for the time being, as I have over 10k hi res images.
Any suggestions?
John

Bug Reports / Re: Blending Textures not using GPU

« Last post by Alexey Pasumansky on June 23, 2022, 05:25:27 PM »

Hello John,

Does it help to disable integrated AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics in GPU tab of Metashape Preferences dialog (keep NVIDIA GPU enabled) and re-start Build Texture operation?

Also there seem to be a new NVIDIA driver released in the middle of June, so you can try to install it as well.

Hello John,

Do you have keypoints stored in the original project?

And whether do you observe any similar problem when working fully in 1.8.3 version: align the sub-set of images (with Keep Key Points option enabled), then add new images to the chunk?
