XnView Software

Pierre,

My project is moving forward and I was wondering if that special multi-threaded version was still a possibility? My quad-core workstation is bored!

Thanks,
Bryan

Correct.

We scan lots of paper pages using a high-speed scanner. The user had 5 blank pages on which to write, but their response may only take up 1 or 2 pages. However, the scanner does not know that, it is programmed to scan all 5 paper pages per user. At the end, for example, we then have 2 real ...

Someone else asked this a while ago, but the thread never got answered.

Can nconvert/xnView do blank page detection? We need to toss out blank TIFFs as we process our batch of images. I have found a separate program that can do this, but being able to do everything in one pass would be great ...

Pierre,

That is very generous of you to look at a special version. Thanks.

In my defense, everything is really going multi-core and 64-bit. You pretty much cannot buy a single-core computer anymore and most of the mid-range Dell's I looked at were quad-core. 4GB of RAM was the minimum Dell offered ...

Thank you Pierre.

Are there any plans for this in the near future? I assume since this is single-threaded that the large memory available will not really help much either? If we wanted to use nconvert, we would be better off with a faster single-core processor machine.

We are beginning a project which will require very large batches of greyscale TIFF images to be converted. I have used Nconvert in the past, but given the size of our batch (50,000+ images at a time), I didn't know if nconvert could handle it well. We plan on doing this on a pretty powerful ...
