HDR plugin to automatically create EXR file. For VFX use

Hi @codetricity and @jcasman,

Thanx for the enthusiastic response!

I usually use nuke from the foundry for exr checking. You can get a non-commercial version (works up to HD) for free. See https://www.foundry.com Also Fusion (now part of davince resolve) is very good and free tool to check the pictures. Both are hardcore vfx compositing tools.

@jcasman the problem with the theta file viewer is that the device probably was still busy. As the names of the jpg’s also wasn’t their final names. I think if you check again now it all should look good.

Two things I ran into today.

  1. after going through the whole process of creating 1 exr and then right after that creating another one (without restart or anything) I had some errors on the second run. So I will look into that.

  2. I had some very bright exr’s when shooting in daylight (all my tested where done in the evening :wink: ) so right now I’m looking into doing some form of tonemapping to make the exr look a bit better. I will keep you posted.

I will also add some stuff to the readme on github. I will start the work on the tutorial about openCV soon.

Talk to you soon!

Greeting Kasper
