Agisoft Metashape 2.2.0 pre-release

[JMR]

What is the NVIDIA 565-566 drivers bug? I am currently using Metashape Pro version 2.1.3 build 18946 with NVIDIA driver 566.14, after running Build_Texture the texture looks really messed up, but Build Orthomosaic works fine. What version NVIDIA driver is recommended?

I just saw the thread for the pre-release this evening. I downloaded it and will start using it.

Hi, bisenberger
I'm with 561.09 and no issues.

Cheers

The NVIDIA version 566.14 driver is working as expected with Metashape Pro version 2.2.0 build 19440.

Just a note, the NVIDIA app has an automatic tuning feature that safely overclocks your NVIDIA GPU and doesn't affect the warranty.

I am having crashing issues when processing a point cloud at ultra high quality. Using rtx4090 with driver 566.14 and Agisoft 2.2.0. Is this related to the Nvidia driver bug? System event viewer has these logs below which seems to indicated GPU issues.

After running Align Photos... I selected photos that were not aligned, then right clicked and chose Align Selected Cameras. In the Workspace panel it indicates more of the photos aligned, but in the Model view the tie points from the original alignment are gone.

Initial alignment:

I can confirm the issue.

No response from Agisoft Technical Support for well over a week. I hope everything is OK for them. Crazy times in the world these days  .


Just noticed this:
Updated to version 2.2.0 build 19522.

Can you please confirm, if the issue is still observed in the latest 2.2.0 update?

Hello José,

Can you please specify the OS version that you are using and the capture video parameters: resolution of the output video, track length in seconds, frame rate?

Hello gadas,

At the moment we are not planning to add markers to Standard edition of Metashape.

[bisenberger]

I have two display adapters in my computer, an AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050. In Metashape Preferences it list the AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT twice, one Vulkan and the other OpenCL. By default the OpenCL one is checked. Is this the prefered settings, and what is the difference?

Hi Alexey,
Still having issues. I ran Align Photos with Reset current alignment checked, it didn't align all the images. I selected the photos that were not aligned, right clicked and choose align selected cameras. Addition photos were aligned, but the number of tie points dropped to what I guess is the number of tie points for the newly aligned photos. I selected the remaining photos that weren't aligned, right clicked and choose align selected cameras again. More cameras were aligned and the number of tie points increased to what I guess is the total for the alignment.

1) initial alignment 411/440 images aligned, 554,264 tie points
2) second partial alignment, selected images not aligned right click align selected cameras, 417/440 images aligned, 1,856 tie points
3) third partial alignment, selected images not aligned right click align selected cameras, 421/440 images aligned, 567,531 tie points

Hi Alexey,

Same here. I am encountering an issue related to camera alignment in Metashape Professional, which appears to have been introduced in version 2.2.0. This issue was not present in version 2.1, where the same workflow functioned correctly.

Some cameras that were previously aligned in the project are being misaligned when new groups of cameras are processed. My workflow is designed to align only the unprocessed cameras while keeping the previously aligned ones intact, but this behavior is not being respected in version 2.2.0. I tried including reset_alignment=False but that didn't work either.

Code: [Select]

def align_images(document, cameras_to_align):
    if cameras_to_align:
        chunk = document.chunk
        unaligned_cameras = [cam for cam in cameras_to_align if cam.transform is None]
       
        if not unaligned_cameras:
            print("No cameras to align: all are already aligned.")
            return
       
        chunk.matchPhotos(cameras=unaligned_cameras, downscale=1,
                          generic_preselection=True, reference_preselection=True)
        chunk.alignCameras(cameras=unaligned_cameras, reset_alignment=False)
