There was a formatting error, you have to format code here as preformatted text. I edited the post. Please try again. You have first to “cd” into the right directory.
Fixed, I changed ${001..100..2}
to {1..100..2}
Sorry, I wasn’t being clear. What you were doing was
1st iteration: Montage of Image 1 + 2
2nd iteration: Montage of Image 3 + 4 + Montage of Image 1 + 2
…
As you can see, things would get out of hand very quickly, resulting in memory and disk overload! I suggest that you test your commands/scripts using dummy images like rose: or logo: that are smaller in size and therefore quicker to process and detect your mistakes. I have generated some images for you to use while determining your workflow:
Edit #1: I zipped the files to make it easier to download: color_blocks.zip (764 Bytes).
So, my new command would be
for i in {1..100..2}; do
magick "${i}.png" "$((i+1)).png" +append "output_${i}-$((i+1)).jpg"
done
I am using Win7 ATM, so I will let you give the command a whirl.
Edit #2: I changed the first jpg
s to png
s since that is what the color blocks are. If you are using tif
s, then change them to tif
, etc.
IT’S WORKING I’m almost crying here, it’s working!
It’s running through the whole set now, completed 150, 664 to go
Edit: all images have been combined, I’m going to post my video here once I’ve finished all the other processing
Good morning,
My video is almost ready - so I’ll be uploading it soon. In the meantime, can I acknowledge you in the video caption when I upload it on Youtube?
Why not Maybe better to mention this forum.
So here is my video: Nairobi Night timelapse version 2
