r54 update prevents moving frame outside préview window
PostPosted: Sun Sep 21, 2014 8:18 am
Silverfast SE Plus version: 8.0.1r54
Scanning material: Super 8 & 8mm home movies
O.S.: Windows 8.1SE (64-bit)
HW: Canon 9000F MarkII
Dear,
I use the software mainly to scan old 8mm/S8mm home movies frame-by-frame.
Working method:
I pré-define a batch-scan of 42 frames.
Because of the small size of the scan material, I need to adjust the frame position, in the preview window of the frame, and move the frame partly outside this window.
This was working well till update r53, since I installed update r54 on my computer, It's not possible anymore, to move a frame out of the pre-scan window.
This makes the r54 version useless for this kind of job (I re-installed the previous version again).
I would be very grateful , if you would have this possibility in one of the following versions available again.
I also have some improvement suggestions for future versions of the Siverfast product:
- Zoom level of prescan window is now determinated by the frame size (which is handy) => it should also be very handy, if this option should have a manual setting too, (currently, the zoomed preview window cannot show more than one frame).
- Make it possible to save multiple frames with the expert settings of the frame dimensions, this option can save a lot of time.
- The scanning surface of the hardware allows to scan more than 50 frames, I understand that this is currently the limit for Silverfast SE.
Normal 8mm film height of 3.81mm, theoretically, can hold 78 frames (roughly calculated).
Best regards.
