zFrame (v3.2.0)

[ChrisC]

Just took a folder with some of this bigger images (1 JPG is around 11 MB).
I made a copy of the folder and reduced the size of the JPGs down to 1 MB.
Then I applied the settings for zFrame (zShadow, zText) and startet an output batch (JPG 85%).

The 34 images from the 'small folder' got processed in a few minutes.
The 34 images from the 'normal size folder' gave no output (stops at 0 of 34).

XMP where the same.

If I send only one image of the 'normal size folder' to the output batch it gets processed.
If I send two images of the 'normal size folder' to the output batch -> no result - stops at 0 of 2.

So I think I exceed a magic limit here.

.. If I send more than one image to the output batch the PC is getting very hot seems to work real hard ...

has anything changed about the problem with the new stable version?
Any advantage with the new version?

Hi,

If there is no advantage - so why you are use the latest version?

[Trucks]

Hi,

- No Risk, No Fun
- Betatester (since Corel it makes no sense)
- No Pro
- I hope the version is better

- Betatester (since Corel it makes no sense)
* hope it will make sense again
- I hope the version is better
* hoping a version will come with real advantages - like watched folders (a feature we already had) , better rename ..., better DAM, new cameras ...

good luck to all of us

Maybe they thought, "why the heck should we bring a new version when the world goes down at 21.12.12?".

I have the same problem with the new version 1.1.0.30 of ASP. If I try to use zframe on files from Canon 50D or Olympus OM-D the batch process stops completely, even if I only try to develop 1 file. If I clear the cache and restart it sometimes works again. It works ok with smaller files from Olympus E-P1 and Canon 5D.

No! After the 'trick' with reducing the batch items in flight to 1 didn't work any longer I tried the new version 1.1.0.30. -> same result!
As soon as I define an output batch which includes zFrame the batch never finishes (I only try to put one small frame around the picture).

zShadow and zText slow down the output - but at least the batch gets finished
At the moment I have to forgo zFrame

I have the problem with zPerspector, using AfterShot vers.: 1.2.0.7 and a Sony RX 100. Unfortunately I cannot downgrade, because the Sony RX100 is not supported. The only chance I have, is to use ^F and calculate picture by picture. A batch of 2 photos doesn't end, sometimes it ends after 5-10 minutes for 1 picture.
