Using Montage with -scenes

[ahecht]

I am trying to create a montage of a bunch of small images named 0001.jpg, 0002.jpg, and so on. I was trying to use the -scenes command as shown at http://www.imagemagick.org/script/comma ... hp?#scenes.

My command is

Code: Select all

montage -scenes 1-160 %04d.jpeg -geometry +0+0 -tile 80x2 output.jpeg

However, when I run this, I get

Code: Select all

montage: invalid argument for option `1-160': -scenes.

I am using ImageMagick 6.3.9 Q16 for Windows if it matters.

try this and tell me if it works.

Code: Select all

   convert -scenes 1-160 %04d.jpeg miff:- |
      montage - -geometry +0+0 -tile 80x2 output.jpeg

It may be that montage just does not understand -scenes properly. This will let us know if it is montage of IM in general.

We have a patch for the montage utility to fix the scenes option in ImageMagick 6.3.9-8 Beta. The patch will be available within a day or two.

Convert throws back "convert: unrecognized option `-scenes'."

Thanks, but I assume you mean 6.3.9-9 Beta?

This issue appears fixed as of 6.3.9-10. Thanks!
