What exactly is the VLT?

The SilverFast VLT (included in SilverFast HDR and SilverFast HDR Studio) is a Virtual Light Table, a kind of image file browser for scanned images. The VLT is used for selecting the desired scans for image optimization in batch mode quickly and well-arranged. The customizable preview function, and the possibilities for image rating and marking facilitate this process.

Alcuni scanner per pellicole offrono la funzionalità di scansione automatica di interi caricatori di diapositive.

1. Batch Scanning into HDRiRAW data format

Il pulsante "Panoramica" apre una finestra di dialogo in cui è possibile specificare il numero di diapositive da scansionare in "Impostazioni". Per eseguire una rapida scansione panoramica, fare clic su "OK". Tutti i vetrini che non devono essere scansionati possono essere deselezionati nella finestra di dialogo. Se le diapositive sono molto simili, è sufficiente regolare le impostazioni del riquadro di scansione e dell'immagine per la prima diapositiva. Questi parametri verranno applicati anche a tutti gli altri vetrini. La scansione in batch viene avviata come segue:

Un rapido clic del mouse sul pulsante "Scansione" avvia una normale scansione singola del riquadro di scansione rosso attivo. Tenendo premuto il pulsante più a lungo, si apre un menu in cui è possibile selezionare la funzionalità di scansione batch. Dopo aver rilasciato il pulsante del mouse, la scansione Batch si avvia automaticamente. Seguendo la stessa procedura, è possibile tornare alla modalità di scansione singola.

  • scansione successiva di più vetrini

  • regolazioni individuali per ogni singolo fotogramma o

  • stesse impostazioni per diapositive simili

2. Using VLT to select images for optimization

For image optimization, SilverFast HDR (Studio) is the software. Therefore, the VLT tool is perfect for sorting and selecting images, just like a real light table for mounted slides or film strips. Disk directories are easily imported using a navigation tool. An overview area shows small thumbnails of the images contained in the selected directory. There also is a zoom functionality to quickly view an image in detail. For categorization, color marks and ratings can be added to each image.

From version 9.1.2, the VLT allows to select and combine various filters in order to search an image archive recursively. The list or gallery view will only show those files that meet the selected criteria. In this way, these files can be quickly marked, imported into the JobManager and created as a job. This makes it very easy to process selected images from several folders in a single job without having to copy these images into one folder.

Files that do not meet the filter criteria are hidden as long as the filter is activated. Filters can be managed and configured in detail by clicking on the filter icon.

3. Batch processing of image optimizations

All images will now be listed in the JobManager dialog window as single job entries. Each job can be optimized as needed with the known SilverFast tools. However, the JobManager’s great strength is to easily copy tool settings from one job to many others. After all settings have been adjusted, the batch processing of all jobs can be started. SilverFast performs the image optimization and saves the new image files to the hard disk.
