Specialty Image Repair ToolsThere are two tools here to repair hot pixels, which are artifacts that appear when digital cameras take long exposures say of a night sky. Light dots appear where they should not be, and seem to be an effect of the pixel auto-firing.

Download URL - hotpixels.zip Developer - MediaChance OS - Windows 95/98/ME?/NT/2000?/XP (I tried XP) File Size - 522 KB Supported Software Versions or File Systems - FAT16/32/NTFS Developer Provided Description - " Hot pixels is a known problem of all CCD cameras during long exposures (1s and up). A hot pixel is created by an element with a higher rate of charge leakage than its neighbors. On long exposure the leakage may cross the exposed value threshold thus producing a white dot on the image. HotPixels, the program removes such noise with preserving details." Comment - It seems to blur the photo a bit.
Name - BlackFrame NR Screenshot not available Download URL - blackframe.zip Developer - MediaChance OS - Windows 95/98/ME?/NT/2000?/XP (It at least opens in XP, I did not have a black reference frame to try this with) File Size - 371 KB Supported Software Versions or File Systems - FAT16/32/NTFS Developer Provided Description - "Hot pixels is a known problem of all CCD cameras during long exposures (1s and up). A hot pixel is created by an element with a higher rate of charge leakage than its neighbors. On long exposure the leakage may cross the exposed value threshold thus producing a white dot on the image. BlackFrame NR uses a black-frame method to removes such noise with preserving all details." Comment - This is probably a better idea than above. It involves taking a reference black frame with the lens cap on. Any hot pixels that show up are subtracted from the original. It has three algorithms for doing this.
Name - TriMM Download URL - http://sourceforge.net/projects/trimm/files Developer - Schokoolero50 OS - Windows File Size - 2.38 MB Developer Provided Description - "Occasionally you find a triangle mesh, containing errors you would like to fix. With TriMM, the TriangleMesh Manipulator, you can repair, alter or convert triangle meshes stored as .OBJ, .OFF, .PLY or .STL files. You can also create some simple meshes." Comments - None Yet

Screenshot Not Available Download URL - DNG Recover Edges Download Developer - Thomas Knoll OS - Windows and Mac OS File Size - Windows version - 469 KB Mac Version - 706 KB Supported Software Versions or File Systems - AVI, DivX Developer Provided Description - Solving a problem that few people knew even existed, Thomas Knoll, one of the original authors of Photoshop, and the creator of Adobe's Camera Raw, has written a free utility program which recovers all of the pixels that any supported digital camera records, whether it's hidden edges or intentionally cropped formats. Called DNG Recover Edges, this small utility is available for both Windows PCs and Macs. All cameras supported by Camera Raw are supported by DNG Recover Edges. This utility is available exclusively here, courtesy of Thomas Knoll and The Luminous Landscape. Please note that this application is unsupported, and is not an Adobe product. Once the program is installed all you need to do is to drag one or more DNG files onto its Icon. Any hidden edges will be recovered and resaved back to its original DNG file. Note that JPG files can not be handled, and any RAW file will first need to be converted to DNG format within Camera Raw, Adobe DNG Converter, or some other DNG compatible conversion program.

It lacks the editing power of a general-purpose editor such as Adobe Premiere, but is streamlined for fast linear operations over video. It has batch-processing capabilities for processing large numbers of files and can be extended with third-party video filters. VirtualDub is mainly geared toward processing AVI files, although it can read (not write) MPEG-1 and also handle sets of BMP images. Comment - Not currently available. May be added later.
