Impress 8.0.7 is released

What's new

Added filters:

• Low pass / high pass / band pass / band reject (Frequency) filter (all with Gaussian, Butterworth and Ideal implementations)
• Wiener noise reduction filter
• RGB color correction filter.

Added filter implementations:

• Box convolution implementation of the Average noise reduction filter.
• Threshold implementation for the Median filter, which only applies the local median value, if the original pixel value deviates more than the set threshold value.
• Custom implementation of the grey scale conversion filter, allowing manual adjustment of the individual weights of the red, green and blue color channels.
• Wiener1D/2D implementation of the General Deblur filter, with a one/two dimensional Gaussian deblur kernel.
• Box implementation of the Temporal Smoothing filter.

Added features / options:

• Automatic report option added, which enables generation of user specified report type (PDF, HTML or DOCX) at file import or creation.
• Still images recording mode added, to save all frames from a video file into individual images in a separate folder.
• Switch between single precision float and double precision float pixel types for calculation on both CPU and GPU to manually balance speed and precision.
• Color modes All (all channels individually) and ColorOnly added to all deblur filters.

What's improved

• We have changed the way our hashing is converted to string. It will now fit the format most other software utilities use.
• The underlying platform of the software has been upgraded to the latest version. This will have a positive impact on overall performance.
• The way calculated hashes are transformed to text. It will now fit most common hashing programs.
• The orientation of JPEG files is automatically reviewed and rotated if necessary.
• Replacement of the methods for extracting metadata with three open source tools: MediaInfo, ExifTool and FFProbe. These tools get more, and more relevant, metadata from the file.
