Hi,<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
a new version of the microtek2 backend can be downloaded from<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<a href="ftp://ftp.muc.de/people/bernds/mtek2/microtek2-pre0.6.291298.tar.gz">ftp://ftp.muc.de/people/bernds/mtek2/microtek2-pre0.6.291298.tar.gz</a> .<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
This version should be considered experimental, because it contains a <br>
|
||
number of untested features/enhancements. The most important ones are:<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
- Support for non-blocking IO's. Basically this simplifies the whole<br>
|
||
data processing, but the necessary changes affect large parts of the<br>
|
||
respective code. In particular it is interesting to know, whether the<br>
|
||
following options work (they are untested):<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
o color mode on models that print the following line for the data format<br>
|
||
(if 'option dump 1' is set in the microtek2.conf file):<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Data format: Chunky data, R, G & B in one pixel<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
o more than 8 bit grayscale and more than 24 bit color scans on models<br>
|
||
that support this.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
- Preliminary support for a strip and a slide mode. I assume (but am not<br>
|
||
quite sure), that this 35mm slide & filmstrip adapter, which comes <br>
|
||
bundled with some models, requires these modes. <br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
Up to now I didn't figure out, how the backend can<br>
|
||
dynamically determine, whether such an adapter is actually attached to<br>
|
||
the scanner. To enable this feature it is necessary to uncomment the<br>
|
||
lightlid-35 opton in the microtek2.conf file, that is included in the<br>
|
||
archive. Then the frontend should offer a choice of scan sources,<br>
|
||
if the device supports these modes. This is completely untested.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
- For people, who are annoyed, if the the scanhead moves back and fourth<br>
|
||
during a scan (backtracking): There is a new option 'disable backtracking'.<br>
|
||
At present this option must be activated by uncommenting the respective<br>
|
||
entry in the included microtek2.conf file. This is an advanced option.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
- The X6EL should no longer produce pixel junk after one successful scan.<br>
|
||
