HDR_Multiscale gets error when applying to Siril for large image

Software Siril
1

I am getting an error from the HDR_Multiscale.py script when I click “Apply to Siril” for a fairly large image (~1.2GB). It doesn’t seem to matter how I have the parameters set, I still get the error. I have gotten 2 different error messages:

Failed to apply to Siril:
Connection Error: Timeout while receiving data

Failed to apply to Siril:
Error in undo_save_state(): Connection error: Timeout while receiving data

I am running Siril v1.4.0-rc1 on Windows 11.

Here is a link to a Google Drive folder containing the console log, pictures of the error message, and a copy of the image I was trying to process - Siril HDR_Multiscale Error – Google Диск

If you want to discuss this with me directly, I can be reached at 972-786-3010.

Thank you for this and for all you do for us.

BTW, I just tried this in SetiAstroPro, Wavescale HDR, and it worked OK.

Could you try with the rc2 please?

I tried this in rc2 and I got a different error. This time it said:

Failed to apply to Siril:
Interface error in _execute_command: Invalid image size: exceeds memory limit

Using your image, I was able to run through the script without any errors on Win11. Does this only happen with this large image? How much memory do you have? I wonder if resetting the Python venv might help? The button is under the list of scripts in Get Scripts.

I have 12GB of memory.

I tried resetting the Python venv like you suggested. It wouldn’t run at all until I restarted Siril. After restarting Siril, I ran the script, and I got the same error.

I tried running it with a smaller file (294 MB) and it worked OK.

As I said previously, this worked OK on the large image in SetiAstroPro, so it is not a big deal to me anymore, but it is curious why it works there, but not in Siril.
