Another 'wish' feature...ability to specify a single day to download, not just a 'from' date...so I can pick just one day (would have made it much easier to get the March 11 Oppy images of the Deimos eclispse...)
Still, I love the program - Eric P / MizarKey -------------------- Eric P / MizarKey

> Is there any way to save a slide show into .mov or .mpg format yet?
Not yet, but it's something I've been working on occassionally, see here: http://homepage.mac.com/michaelhoward/rovermovies/ > Another 'wish' feature...ability to specify a single day to download, not just a 'from' date...so I can pick just one day (would have made it much easier to get the March 11 Oppy images of the Deimos eclispse...) This'll be in v1.0.1 Mike |

I've attached one of the anaglyphs...apparently two non matching frames got put together...hope it helps debug...

QUOTE (MizarKey @ Feb 13 2005, 12:11 AM) I've attached one of the anaglyphs...apparently two non matching frames got put together...hope it helps debug... Eric P / MizarKey Unfortunately it's difficult to match pancam images based on only the information contained in the filenames. The method I came up with is only about 98% reliable; you'll see some strange matches sometimes if they do anything a little different with the image sequencing. I don't think there's much I can do to fix it right now. I figured ~98% correct was better than nothing. Similar with the true-color possibility somebody asked about earlier: there's only so much you can do automatically without the full data. Anyway, I'm not that much of an imaging expert yet. Thanks for bringing it up, though; I probably should mention that in the documentation, just so people know what to expect. Mike |

Thanks Mike for the link - I checked out the Spirit 3d drive movie and it was very nice.

My wife is also very happy I went sleeping with her last night instead of my usual searching for interesting stuf and downloading between 23000 and 0200!
I came at the computer this morning; about 5000 images and hundreds of anaglyphs and false-color images! Very nice.. I find the generated images very interesting for selecting those that are good for making anaglyph pans. I use stereophotomaker in the same way; I still make the stereo images and color images in PS for the freedom it gives but this kind of software makes it easy and less time-consuming for selecting the images. Thanks again. Now, I am very greatful but I was wondering; would it be equally possible for adjusting your software for the Analyst website (12-bit imagery) ? The analyst website has another interface so I can imagine it's not that simple or straightforward to do but, I don't know, I'm not a programmer. Thank you. -------------------- photographer, space imagery enthusiast, proud father and partner, and geek.

Glad it's helping out.
> would it be equally possible for adjusting your software for the Analyst website (12-bit imagery) ? I honestly have no idea, I haven't really looked at it enough. That only has imagery and data from earlier in the mission, right? It would be interesting to look at but it's probably not going to happen quickly for me, because of my various time constraints. (You know how it goes... work, family, etc.) |

Yes I understand. A family needs time too, I know. It may be something interesting for the future but at least now we get some sleep
The data for sol 91-180 is now accessible and till 270 I think is for march. I browsed through my 'extended' archive for the first time and thought this was a nice one.. -------------------- photographer, space imagery enthusiast, proud father and partner, and geek.

This one shows the pancam/navcam bridge and mast and the low-gain antenna mirrored in a metal part on one of the robotic arm's instruments.

I'm having some problems with the software. It downloaded all images fine but it stalls while it's generating the anaglyphs and color images. Opportunity got up to something like sol 41 before it stalled. I cancelled the update and restarted the software. On the next try it checked but didn't download any Opportunity images as it should. However, it didn't continue to generate the anaglyphs and color images as I hoped for. It continued with Spirit and downloaded all the images fine, but again it stalled while generating the anaglyphs and color images:

Are you using OSX? EDIT: Never mind, obviously OSX doesn't have a C: prompt. What version of Java are you using? For now, quite the program and bring it up again, then to update the images select "Advanced Image Update", uncheck the download checkbox, and select "Fill in missing images" from the generate images popup. That should finish generating the images that didn't get generated. |
