nwhit Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 Loaded the new beta yesterday and read something about improvements to the pano. So I loaded a project I'm working on, 302 - 6 MB pics of a drone mapping. I have to say that it executed much faster than 1.6.7 or 1.7.1, plus it was more accurate in the stitching. Open GL and Metal Compute off. I think I'll give it a try to see if Metal is working better in this beta. -------------------- New: 2023 Mac Studio M2 MAX 12-Core CPU/38-Core GPU 64GB Memory • 5k Studio Display • Sonoma Prev: 2020 iMac 27 i7 (5k Rez), 72GB, AMD Radeon Pro 5700XT 16GB • Sonoma MacBook Pro, 13", M1 2020 • 16 GB • macOS Sonoma iPad Air 2022
nwhit Posted June 28, 2019 Author Posted June 28, 2019 Tried with Metal Compute on and it wasn't any faster as far as I could tell (long enough that I need to leave it alone for quite some time, so don't know exactly when it ends processing at each stage, and that's true for both Metal on and off). I have to say that the second stitch using the same pics was not as good as the first one with a good amount of misalignments, similar to what I was getting with 1.6.7 and 1.7.1, so perhaps the accuracy part on the first one with the new beta was just a random chance thing. I am not aware that Metal would affect the accuracy of the stitching but don't know that. -------------------- New: 2023 Mac Studio M2 MAX 12-Core CPU/38-Core GPU 64GB Memory • 5k Studio Display • Sonoma Prev: 2020 iMac 27 i7 (5k Rez), 72GB, AMD Radeon Pro 5700XT 16GB • Sonoma MacBook Pro, 13", M1 2020 • 16 GB • macOS Sonoma iPad Air 2022
