nwhit Posted June 28, 2019 Share 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. -------------------- iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2020 i7 72GB) • AMD Radeon Pro 5700 XT 16 GB • macOS Sonoma MacBook Pro, 13", M1 2020 • 16 GB • macOS Sonoma iPad Air 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwhit Posted June 28, 2019 Author Share 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. -------------------- iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2020 i7 72GB) • AMD Radeon Pro 5700 XT 16 GB • macOS Sonoma MacBook Pro, 13", M1 2020 • 16 GB • macOS Sonoma iPad Air 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
