I wrote back just now to the maker of photo-plugins:
http://www.photo-plugins.com/Plugins/Plugins/
I have used these plugins for years and they are one of those things, just like Vdub is, that gets put back on, right away, onto the computer just after a reinstall of the OS.
In a recent post I talked about contrast filters for black and white photos. You can give different film stock looks, use contrast filtering and also do toning. Those plugins work great in PSP on still photos. The BW conversion filter on that page would be neat as a video filter but since one doesn't exist for video I had attempted to record a PSP script to process exported frames from Vdub with this plugin and then import the frames back into Vdub.
In PSP X2 the script fails in processing an image but with the selective saturation filter the GUI shows up but you have to press the OK button each time to process the image frames. In PSP 9 the BW conversion plugin does show up but you have to do the same, press the OK button for each image.
I have tried toggling the execution mode from interactive to silent and had even moved the script out from the restricted folder to the trusted folder in hoping that might had solved the issue with not being able to run in auto in batch mode but this hasn't been going well.
It's like PSP doesn't recognize or know to "hit OK" on the plugin's GUI. I'm wondering if it is a win handle issue yet I don't see any hwnd codes in the python script?
I am thinking of going black and white with my videos to try something different. I even have a script that I recorded with BW conversion which would coat the frames a platinum color which looks really cool. I would like to try Cyanotype, Albumen, Daguerreotype and all the other old photo processes onto videos.
Hopefully the maker of those plugins can give some input. I will keep updated on this and if he responds I'll post back with what he says. |

I was going to change the topic of this thread since I didn't really ask a question. I asked the question to the maker. Well, if anyone here might have an idea why the PSP script fails then that's good too so I guess I did ask a question here after all.  |
