Hi Gunther,
Here's something that has been a bit difficult to deal with, and I don't understand why.
If I've generated the visual deflicker previews and I change the reference area, LRTimelapse won't let me refine the deflicker until it regenerates the complete previews that I've already generated. This when I've changed nothing, just redrawn the reference area.
Here are the steps:
1) set reference area (usually I do this right after loading the sequence)
2) do all edits as normal
3) generate previews for entire sequence
4) change reference area (I don't tend to make animated reference areas, I usually chose to use a single, static, reference area). LRT recalculates curves
5) select a specific set of frames to refine (eg. frames 100-300).
6) set refine smoothing amount
7) click save
8) LRT tells me: "Please save first and allow the visual previews to be renewed, then you can refine the deflicker."
9) I have to wait until the visual previews are renewed, with no new parameters, they are the same curve as I had previously generated.
This adds a lot of time to my workflow, and is pretty frustrating. I haven't changed any values, so I don't understand why all the visual previews have to be generated.
Is this a bug, or a feature? (it's been around for a couple of versions now, so perhaps I'm not understanding why it's happening).
Cheers!
Chas
