[CinePaint] Really basic script for batch converting. 8bit .png to 32bit Float .hdr

Louis

Thanks, but I'm really looking for a command line thing to convert
thousands of images without opening them in an editor like blender etc.
But thank you.

Also it looks like Cinepaint fills in the gaps in the tonal range
spreading 8bit levels into a 32bit format, I may be wrong, if I am is
there anyway Cinepaint can do that, a sort of interpolation. I don't
know the correct terminology for that, otherwise I could google it.

Imagemagick I can get to do 16bit but still does no interpolation from
what i can see.

Noticed on photography forums that some are adding a very small amount
of noise to shift some of the pixels about into the gaps to help where
interpolation can't be done.

I'm sure some will say, if you want 32bit or 16bit then shoot that. I'm 
not trying to make a silk purse out of a sows ear I'm just looking to
get the best 8bit file I can in a 32bit format ready for next stage of
process.

Thanks again.
