GMIC questions.

Wondering here if GMIC can handle more than 8bit color and if it uses GPU? Asking for a friend. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

  • G’MIC handles images with 32-bits floating point values for each component (color or whatever you want your value to be).
  • G’MIC does not use GPU.

The TL;DR answers:

  1. Images
  2. Images as Data Sets

Hey, thanks for answering. I am looking for possible replacements to frei0r video effects library to use in floss editing programs (Kdenlive/Shotcut/Flowblade). Handling more than 8bit is great! Are there plans to add GPU processing in future versions?

Cheers

No.

Thanks David. One last question hopefully, I saw there is a project called Zart, what is the status of this? Was it a proof of concept that GMIC can handle video?

Yes, it was a kind of “demo” platform, that we used to show some G’MIC effect , live, on webcams and videos. It is not really developed anymore.
