\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Darktable, the popular raw image processing software, released new 4.8.1 version few days ago.<\/p>\n

This is the first minor release for the current 4.8 release series, which contains only bug-fixes. The release fixed the issue that export without high quality sampling but with up-scaling activated, crash when using the -d imageio<\/code> option, and image jump if collection is empty.<\/p>\n

There are as well fixes for importing\/exporting issues, including large image exports due to a bug in finalscale module, JPEG2000 loading issue due to unspecified color space, and empty lighttable when importing from command-line. For more, see the official release note<\/a>.<\/p>\n
