How to batch process Topaz DeNoise 5

Post by chrisxn »

First let me extend huge thanks to Pierre-Yves for XnView, which I consider to be the best such software program, and by a large margin (I've recommended it to my French relatives, although some seem suspicious that a French programmer does work that's heads and shoulders above Microsoft or Adobe... go figure!)

Now for my quick question. I have properly registered Topaz DeNoise 5 as an Adobe 8F in the XnView Plugin Manager but in spite of many attempts I have been unable to use DeNoise from the Batch Processing window. Is making a specific script necessary? How? What am I missing or doing wrong?

I do volunteer photography for a sports team and typically I will go out and shoot hundreds of pictures in similar lighting/conditions so the noise is quite "even" across all files. Batch processing each new folder would be an incredible time saver.

8bf plugin can't be used in 'batch convert' only in view mode...

Oooops, I do know a Pierre-Yves and got you two confused... my apologies!

Thanks for the clarification Pierre. Any chance plugins could be batched in the future, maybe for "super" version of XnView? This is a feature I'd gladly pay (a reasonable amount) for!
