PROGRAM:
NAME
pfsinppm - Load images or frames in PBM formats
SYNOPSIS
pfsinppm (<file> [--linear] [--absolute <max_lum>] [--frames <range>] [--skip-missing])
[<file>...]
DESCRIPTION
pfsinppm command loads images in PBM formats (PPM, PNM or PGM) and writes pfs stream to
the standard output. The pfs stream is usually piped to another program for further
processing. To detect the format automatically based on the extension, use pfsin command.
For more information on PBM formats, refer to the NetPBM web page
(http://netpbm.sourceforge.net/).
Note that PPM or PNM images are low dynamic range. Therefore pixel values (0-255) are
scaled to 0-1 before storing them in pfs stream. Similarly, before writing low dynamic
range image from pfs stream, pixel values are multiplied by 255. By default, the
'LUMINANCE' tag is set to 'DISPLAY'. The '--linear' switch can force the inverse sRGB
transformation and provide linear data. In this case the 'LUMINANCE' tag is set to
'RELATIVE'. '--absolute' switch can be used to convert pixels to absolute luminance
values.
To read images from standard input use a single dash '-' instead of filename. The images
are read until EOF is reached.
Each file can contain a %d pattern, which is substituted with frame numbers. The pattern
has the same syntax as C printf command. For example, you can use %04d to make the frame
number four digit with proceedings zeros. See the OPTIONS section below for details.
OPTIONS
--frames <range>
Range is given in mathlab / octave format:
startframe:step:endframe
Frame numbers start with startframe (default 0), are increased by step (default 1)
and stop at endframe You can skip one of those values, for example 1:100 for frames
1,2,...,100 and 0:2: for frame 0,2,4,... up to the last file that exists.
--skip-missing
Skip up to ten frames in a row if corresponding files are missing. Otherwise the
program stops reading sequence at the first file that does not exists. This switch
does not apply to the first frame in a sequence. This switch can be useful if there
is a rendered animation where some of the frame has not been generated.
--linear, -l
Converts pixel values to linear luminance (XYZ), assuming the sRGB color space for
the input image. The maximum pixel value (255,255,255) is mapped to Y=1. LUMINANCE
tag is set to RELATIVE.
--absolute <max_lum>, -a <max_lum>
--absolute converts pixel values to an absolute linear luminance (XYZ), that is the
color space, in which channel Y contains luminance given in cd/m^2. The sRGB color
space is assumed for the input image. The maximum pixel value (255,255,255) is
mapped to Y=<max_lum>. <max_lum> is typically set to 80 [cd/m^2] for a CRT monitor.
LUMINANCE tag is set to ABSOLUTE. --absolute process images almost the same as
--relative, but additionally it scales all pixels by <max_lum>.
EXAMPLES
pfsinppm frame%04d.ppm --frames 0:10 | pfsview
Read frames from files frame0000.ppm, frame0001.ppm, ..., frame0010.ppm and show
them using pfsview.
