Compiling Libraw with RawSpeed

I'm trying to have libraw with rawspeed support (ubuntu 22.04), but I can not manage to make it work.

Here's what I'm doing so far,
I have folder parent/ where I put Libraw-0.20.0 and 'rawpseed-master' renamed to 'RawSpeed'. (I have two folders, parent/LibRaw-0.20.0 and parent/RawSpeed).

For RawSpeed :
-copy/paste the patches from parent/LibRaw-0.20.0/RawSpeed/ to parent/RawSpeed/RawSpeed,

-execute commands :"patch < rawspeed.cpucount-unix.patch", "patch < rawspeed.qmake-pro-files.patch" and then "qmake -makefile rawspeed-lib.pro"

Comb distribution after PhaseOne image debayering

Hi,

I found a strange problem after analyzing the histograms on images right after debayering (16-bit data so 65536 bins per channel). We use PhaseOne cameras at work and we are interested to get images with a minimum of processing done (debayering, 16-bit per channel, linear response, nothing else). I tried different debayering algorithm using the user_qual but the same problem can be observed. I also created the distribution of the last digit of the pixel values. You can see clearly that there is a unbalance between even and odd numbers. See the attached screenshots.

Converting ARW’s on Mac OS Leopard

I’m still not sure I fully understand what LibRaw even is.

Is this something that executes in command line, or is it just a compatibility add-on for applications that already work with RAW files?

My goal is to simply convert RAW files from a Sony A7 II to something that is natively supported in Mac OS X Leopard 10.5 while still using Leopard.

I know I could do this in another OS but the point is that this is a hub for my workflow for years and I don’t want to lose Aperture support or change my tools just because I got a later camera.

Hardware is Intel x86-64

Strange 14bit output with libraw.dll + unprocessed_raw.exe

Hi!

While using libraw.dll together with unprocessed_raw.exe to decode various RAW file formats to simple to read PGM files for experimentation with my program
I found this strange thing with only Sony ARW files. That even for the input files that are meant to be 12bit (RAW pixel values somewhere in the range of 0-4095) I get output files with RAW pixel values somewhere in the range of 0-16383 (corresponding to 14bit).

Looking at the histograms confirms that "empty spaces" are added.

Libraw slowdown when updating 19.2 to 20.2

Hi everyone,

I was using libraw 0.19.2 in my application for reading raw images. Once I decided to upgrade to 0.20.2 version image import obviously slowed down.
I would like to know if there is any specific reason for that, or maybe some new functionality has been added for importing that I miss for new version.

Just to note that in my app, both 19.2 and 20.2 were running the same code. Output data is the same but t_20.2 = t_19.2 * 2.

Please find code example bellow.
