I am trying to use the Retinex tool in Rawtherapee 5.4 on a tiff file. It has no effect at all - which is not true when using the tool on a camera raw file.
On the page at https://rawpedia.rawtherapee.com/Retinex is the following note: As a consequence, non raw files (TIFF, JPG, …) can’t be processed with this algorithm? This problem should be solved soon (November 2015 ??).
Am I correct in assuming that the Retinex tool is not able to work with non-raw files?
There are 2 branches where you can find “Retinex” that works for TIFF and JPG
waveletnew : in this branch Retinex is incorporated to wavelet level, with 2 options
a) in Final Touchup - in this case if you dont’use any slider, it is as whithout Wavelet, if you use some settings of wavelet, “Retinex” is at the end
b) in Residual image
newlocallab : in this branch you can apply Retinex to a part of an image
To note, in those branches, Retinex acts also on chroma (including in the case of branch waveletnew for the Retinex module in Raw mode)
I tried to edit some mRaw and sRaw Files from my EOS 80D. although this is a Raw File, Retinex shows no effect at all in this pictures.
I can’t find anything in the wavelet tab either
@Myxir
It is obvious you cannot found in wavelet tab because you are in dev branch
What I’m talking about is the branch “waveletnew” - a) you can compile; b) or download (windows…)
