Stitching Pre-Projected Images Together

If you have pre-projected images from a third-party application, or from an export from C_CameraSolver, C_Stitcher does not require C_CameraSolver metadata to stitch the images together. As long as the transform data and alpha masks available, you can stitch pre-projected images by performing the following steps:

1.

Read in the camera footage and projection transform data.

Note:  The transform data must include sensible alpha masks, either in the alpha channel of the images or injected using C_AlphaGenerator nodes.

2.

Add a JoinViews node to collect the views together, and then connect a C_Stitcher node to the JoinViews node.

3.

In the C_Stitcher Properties panel, set the Projection dropdown to LatLong.

The views are stitched together as if the C_CameraSolver metadata were present.
