Load an HDR image in Pixel Bender Toolkit

Hello

I just started to play with Pixel Bender Toolkit.  The documentation notes that if used in AfterEffects, Pixel Bender filters must be able to manage HDR images, and also that pixels are always internally regarded as 32 bits floating, so I assumed, that it would be not a problem to load an image HDR in a format (ideally a 32-bit comma floating one).  However I can't find a way to do it.  Is this possible?

Thanks in advance!

The Toolbox does not support 32-bit images

  • Failure of the Adobe Pixel Bender Toolkit 2.5 update

    Hello

    My hard drive is dead and I must reinstall completely, including the suite Adobe CS5 Extended. Before the accident, everything worked fine, but now I get a message from MAO that Adobe Pixel Bender Toolkit 2.5 update failed because 'there was an error downloading this update. Exit and try again later. " What can I do? I am on Windows 7 with all updates and my CS5 is completely up to date apart from that.

    B

    I had a similar problem after that reformatting my hard drive and do a clean install Windows 7 and Adobe CS5, even though for me, I was a problem updating the entire suite.

    First, the solution was to update the MAO.  See this thread (in particular the answer by natewinck on August 20, 2014 07:52) for the details of the solution.

    However, I was still having problems to make the PixelBender 2.5 update to install.  It turns out that it is an another known issue that needs a fix installed first.

    I hope this helps.

  • Pixel Bender Toolkit

    I downloaded Pixel Bender toolkit for my mac.  The file is under utilities, but I'm stuck and can't figure out how to get the filters in PS CS5.  I'm frustrated... have tried all I know... and it is very little.  Any help or advice are appreciated.

    Thank you

    You have installed the pixel bender plugin and not pixel bender toolkit?

    Pixel bender toolkit is for writing pixel bender plugins and the pixel bender plugin is the plugin who

    Photoshop needs to use pixel bender filters and the filter of the oil painting is included in the download of the pixel bender plugin.

  • Pixel Bender Toolkit should have a STOP button

    Pixel Bender Toolkit is easy to use, and I really like it! But when I want to stop a kernel running, I have no option to stop the current kernel, as consequence the current kernel is still running all the time ~ ~ ~ makes me only not so good ~ ~ is there someone who has the same problem as mine?

    See the Preferences menu, there is a checkbox to disable "make inactive." That turn off do the box tool to return only when you move a slider.

    Hope this helps,

  • cursor in Pixel Bender Toolkit

    Hello

    small question. I like to set the values of parameter with cursors (as described in the examples), but

    I only get input where I can write the values. It's a bit annoying, if you want to play o.

    No chance to get sliders? I've searched and searched, but didn t get an answer to this question.

    Please take a look in the "Guide of the Adobe Pixel Bender developer" PDF. It is located under assistance from inside the box menu item tools.

    The topic you are interested in is 'Metadata Hinting'-> 'Element specialization parameter type' that is all documented very nice...

    your setting for a slider with a float value should look like this:

    parameter float your_variable_name


    minValue: float (1.0);                      the minimum value of the parameter
    maxValue: float (100.0);                  the maximum value of the parameter
    defaultValue: float (100.0);               the default value of the parameter

    stepInterval: float (1.0);                    an interval of step for the parameter if necessary otherwise, remove this line of code
    Description: "your description."       a description of the parameter

    >;

    but look more closely in the help file for the other types of parameters like:

    parameter float angle

    parameterType: "angleDegrees;

    minValue: 0,0;

    maxValue: 359.9;

    defaultValue: 30.0;

    previewValue: 15.0;

    Description: "measured in degrees;

    displayName: "angle of vectors;

    minValueName: "no angle."

    maxValueName: "full turn";

    stepInterval: 5.0;

    >;

    parameter float2 mousePos

    parameterType: 'position '.

    minValue: float2 (0.0);

    maxValue: float2 (1024.0);

    defaultValue: float2 (512.0);

  • [windows 7] Pixel Bender accident on launch without error message, works only in mode 256 colors

    I recently installed Pixel Bender and it worked the first time I started it, but I've since updated my NVidia driver, and now it crashes at startup.

    I tried to change the program setting in the NVidia Control Panel and tried all options of compatibility, but also 16-bit color, but it does that mode 256 colors, as suggested by this old thread:

    mode 256 colors makes it impossible to view any kind of basic shaders so I have to export flash develop at each change.

    Device Manager does no fallback option, and my computer is in dire need this update, I'm stuck.

    Hello

    To resolve this problem simply change the name of the sniffer_gpu.exe file in the Pixel Bender Toolkit folder to any other without ".exe" for example sniffer_gpu.exe.bak. This will stop this toolkit to get a GPU that can be incompatible with app (see manual for supported GPUS) and forces CPU usage to make images.

  • Pixel Bender update fails

    Adobe Application Manager ran a week ago and upgrade my Master CS5 Ed 12.0.3 however Pixel Bender Toolkit 2.5 update cannot be installed in AE and Fl Pro. Whenever the Manager runs with an update it will not install PB 2.5. I turned my AV and tried, without success. If I go to AE, PB works without problem. It won't update. I have PB in my collection of Adobe, but it is version 2.1. Any ideas what the problem may be? Should I do a complete reinstall? This is a last option if possible. I tried to download PB 2.5 on PB website but it will not install either. Here is the error:

  • Application of Pixel Bender filters on some MediaElements

    Hello

    I want to apply a Pixel Bender filter to an ImageElement. In general, I do this as:

    var shader:Shader = new Shader(new PBFilter() as ByteArray);
    
    var filter:ShaderFilter = new ShaderFilter(shader);
    
    var image:Image = imageElement as Image;
                    
    image.filters = [filter];

    Now ImageElement does not support the parameter .filters. Are there plans for this feature in a future release of OSMF? Or are there different ways to apply a Pixel Bender filter? Thank you

    If you are working with the MediaPlayer, then you can assign the filter property of the MediaPlayer displayObject once the image is loaded:

    mediaPlayer.addEventListener (MediaPlayerStateChangeEvent.MEDIA_PLAYER_STATE_CHANGE, onStateChange);

    mediaPlayer.media = imageElement;

    function onStateChange(event:MediaPlayerStateChangeEvent):void

    {

    If (event.state is MediaPlayerState.READY)

    {

    mediaPlayer.displayObject.filters = [filter];

    }

    }

    If you work with the ImageElement directly (and unfortunately), then you will need to access DisplayObjectTrait element, which holds the DisplayObject.
