Synopsis

Identify images belonging to an image-sequence.

Prerequisites

None.

Configuration

HDR_FUZZ
Two images are considered part of a sequence, if their DateTimeOriginal-values (or ModifyDate if DateTimeOriginal is empty) differ at most HDR_FUZZ seconds.
HDR_LIST
List of all images, with all images of a sequence on a single line separated by commas. HDR_LIST defaults to $IMG_DIR/hdr-list.txt.
IMG_DIR
Work-directory. Defaults to $TARGET_DIR/work. This module scans all files in the work-directory with the current IMG_PREFIX and IMG_EXT.

Description

This module uses a simple heuristic to identify image-sequences: images taken in quick succession (at most HDR_FUZZ seconds apart) are considered to belong to an image sequence. This heuristic is far from perfect. In the future, there will be other more sophisticated methods available, e.g. a module could take advantage of additional exif-information like exposure-bracket mode or even the sequence-numbers some cameras add to the exif-data.

It is probably a good idea to check the generated list-file and correct any wrong sequences manually.
