Processing Camera Raw files to JPEG, TIFF, or PPM formats is extremely time
|
||
|
|
intensive. Utilizing multiple threads on multi-core systems can realize an
|
||
|
|
increase of productivity and time savings of 60%.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The multiraw.c program allows the user to batch convert Camera Raw format files
|
||
|
|
in parallel using pthreads. The user may specify the number of threads to run,
|
||
|
|
or they may use the Auto Thread switch which will cause the software to
|
||
|
|
determine the appropriate number of threads based on the task requested.
|
||
|
|
By default, multiraw.c calls dcraw-m, which is included. If the user wishes
|
||
|
|
to use the unmodified dcraw program, it may be specified using the -o switch.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Use the -n switch to specify number of threads, or use -a to instruct the
|
||
|
|
software to automatically determine the optimal number of threads to use
|
||
|
|
depending on the commanded task.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
multiraw uses dcraw-m, a modified version of dcraw which automatically
|
||
|
|
rotates exported thumbnails and has a camera timezone offset adjustment
|
||
|
|
variable.
