DIY Book Scanner

I just uploaded a new version of BSW (2.0.2), that addresses some of these issues. It now keeps track of the last directory and defaults to that. It should save preferences under Linux now. I added a new command: MedianFilter. This will get rid of noise by scanning an image, and replacing each pixel...

Kempelen, Thanks for your posting. I like hearing that people are using the software. And thanks for the Hungarian intro! I think there's a general problem where Linux isn't saving preferences..

Either one will work, but in general, its best to choose the red wire. (Black is generally ground).

Good to hear!

I think I have a fix.. Try the newest version (2.0.1a) and see if its better.

Strange.. The "Save As" should bring up a dialog.. It works for me on both Linux and Windows.

However, if you have a book where the left pages and right pages were not scanned in sync, you need to use the ignore_times option. So something like: LoadLRImages = ignore_times /path/...
