Job batch for HDR merge

Implemented
Stefan Mahr

Sometimes I have a lot of Photos to merge. Its a bit time consuming to wait everytime for about 10 secs. Its to short of a time to do something different.

It would be nice if it would be possible, that C1 would allow a next HDR-merge to create while the current one is running.

    Hi Stefan, 

    Thank you for your feedback and loyalty to Capture One - we appreciate the time you’ve taken to contribute towards the development of the software.

    I have forwarded your suggestions for implementing the next HDR-merge option to our product management team. 

    Hopefully, your feedback contributes towards a future version of Capture One.

    Whilst we cannot comment on future releases, we take all suggestions on board.

    I'd love to see this too. I merge dozens of property photos in a session and having to go through the process over and over and over gets tedious.

    Would appreciate that feature as it will help to free time when doing merge of realestate HDRs.

    Absolutely agreed, I've been HDR merging for focus stacked shots, so it's pretty painful to manually merge the full set of 100 steps with three exposures for each step.

    It would even help a lot to be able to build a queue of these jobs so I can go through manually selecting the merges but don't have to wait for the current one to finish.

    Agreed.  Processing only one HDR merge at a time is not a professional feature that benefits real estate photographers and other photographers with time-sensitive client jobs.  

     

    Please add a batch que for multiple HDR Merge's to process as fast as possible.  Thank you.

    Yes please, I merge to hdr and then stitch, it would be great if there was batch functionality for this process, or at least a portion of the process

    I often take 195 photos, 5 brackets in each of 3 rows and 13 columns, that's 39 manual stitches with a single merge at the end. It would really help if I could just select all 195 images and select merge as I can with Photomatix Pro.

    Without sounding rude, only merging a single scene at a time is great for amateurs but like was said above, that's not the way professionals work, we need tools that work for us not where we have to work to use them.

    Thanks for your consideration.

    I'd like to be able to drag multiple groups of images into a queue, group after group, then just click "merge" and have Capture One merge each group. That way I can do something else productive while it works.

     

    We should take odds on whether this is ever implemented.

    Let's put that in the suggestion box batch HDR merging!! I'll vote for that, LR had that feature for quite a while.

    Yes please. I would totally be able to build a case to have my studio purchase Capture One with batch HDR merging. Batch HDR Merge paired with exporting to AcesCG color space will save so much time for our Post Production department

    This would be amazing and super helpful to finally drop LR once and for all for the odd real estate job I get!

    Batch HDR would allow me to stop using the LR/Enfuse plugin (Lightroom) for client work, where speed is of the essence.

    (Sadly, LR/Enfuse is ancient, and doesn't use the GPU cores on my Mac Studio. Also, I prefer the finished product from Capture One's HDR merge, which would be incredibly fast with the addition of batch merging.)

    This is requested for more than a year now…
    Can we get any feedback by CaptureOne folk?

    Please add this feature, C-ONE is such a great tool, how could you let A***E be better than you

    I'd love to see this happen but for some reason I don't think C-One really cares about this sort of thing. Yeah, I LOVE sitting here merging set after set after set for over an hour when I have a lot to work on (which is often).
