Batch Processor is a component of hugin that provides functionality to stitch multiple projects in a batch queue. Its goal is to make stitching of multiple projects faster. The process of stitching multiple projects is simplified using a queue of projects. User can add/edit/delete projects in the queue.
Hugin Batch Processor consists of a list of projects. Projects in the list are ordered in sequential order. By default, the list is reinstated every time you open the application. What is more, entire queue of projects can be saved and reopened later using buttons Clear Batch, Open Batch, Save Batch.
Flag options
Batch process is also influenced by the following check boxes:
- parallel execution: Execute stitching of projects in the list parallel rather than in sequential order. Check this only if you are certain your computer is up for the task of stitching multiple projects at the same time.
- delete .pto files: After stitching of each projects ends, Batch Processor will delete the project file of the currently processed project. Be careful, deleted files are lost!
- overwrite always: Always(for each project) overwrite output filename if it exists. Otherwise, you will get a dialog box whether you want to overwrite files or not.
- Shutdown when done: Turn off computer when batch process ends.
Buttons
Clear batch
Removes all projects from the list.
Open batch
Open a batch file with a list of projects that was saved earlier.
Save batch
Save current list of projects to a file. File can later be opened using the Open batch button
Start
Starts the batch process and stitches all projects in the queue.
Skip
Stops stitching of current project in batch process and starts stitching next project in the queue. This button is inactive when batch process is not running.
Pause
Pauses the current batch process. In order to continue the process press the Start button. This button is inactive when batch process is not running.
Cancel
Stops batch execution. This button is active only when batch process is running.
Add project
Adds projects to the list. A file browser appears where users can select one or multiple .pto or .pts files.
Remove project
Removes selected project from the list.
Folder search
Recursively searches given folder for project files and appends them to project list.
