πŸ’– jpeg2hdrgen β€” bestie's guide to the manual πŸ’–

okay so real talk: this is jpeg2hdrgen, from the General Commands Manual, and she's a lil script-gremlin that reads your JPEGs and spits out a whole hdrgen script for you. no cap. let's get into it πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

jpeg2hdrgen β€” parses the EXIF info chillin' inside the JPEG files you hand her, then outputs a hdrgen script so you can go generate some HDR images. it's giving matchmaker but for exposure data πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

jpeg2hdrgen <file1.jpg> [<file2.jpg>...]

πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

so basically, bestie, this program is your lil automation bestie: it makes a hdrgen script for you, all by itself, for use with software that creates HDR images. iconic behaviour honestly.

the exposure info? she pulls that straight out of the EXIF data that lives inside the jpeg images your digital camera made. like she's reading the receipts your camera left behind πŸ”₯

lowkey important: if this script doesn't recognise the exposure settings from the images your camera took, send me an output of a jhead your_image.jpg program. yes, that's the actual vibe β€” that's how the maintainer wants to hear from you πŸ’Œ

⭐ EXAMPLES ⭐

jpeg2hdrgen IMG_0001.JPG IMG_0002.JPG IMG_0003.JPG > sample.hdrgen

this one right here? she creates a sample.hdrgen script for the given images. three JPEGs in, one script out, main character energy only πŸ‘‘

and that's the whole page bestie!! this one lives in the General Commands Manual, she's jpeg2hdrgen(1), and she's been serving since the version and date stamped at the bottom of the original page β€” so if you're ever unsure, that footer is where the receipts live πŸ’–βœ¨πŸŽ€
