[Bug 709561] Re: Hugin doesn't copy icc colour profiles to output

 

Photos taken at different time with different cameras are not going to
align photometrically, so being able to convert everything to a single
colourspace isn't going to be very useful to many people.

It isn't necessary for Hugin to understand profiles to create accurate
output, since Hugin internally has a good response model, but we really
do need to copy a profile if there is one.

At some point Hugin should read the icc profiles and use it to provide a
colour corrected display in the preview etc... but this is a different
issue.

Title:
  Hugin doesn't copy icc colour profiles to output

Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
  New

Bug description:
  (reported by celsius@xxxxxxxxxxxxx)

  Hugin copies lots of metadata from the first photo in the project to
  the final output, this is from src/hugin1/hugin/config_defaults:

  #define HUGIN_EXIFTOOL_COPY_ARGS                   "-ImageDescription
  -Make -Model -Artist -WhitePoint -Copyright -GPS:all -DateTimeOriginal
  -CreateDate -UserComment -ColorSpace -OwnerName -SerialNumber"

  It seems that it should also have these args:

    -icc_profile
    -xmp

  In particular, if there is no icc profile then the enblend -c option
  has no effect.
