Click the ![high quality processing icon](./high-quality-processing/high-quality-processing-icon.png#icon) icon to activate high quality processing in the pixelpipe. | ||
|
||
Darktable pixelpipes process the modules in slightly different ways, the thumbnail pipe as an example is optimized for speed. | ||
|
||
The darkroom pixelpipes for the main canvas and the second monitor try to keep resources within limits by downscaling and by | ||
restricting the processed data to what is actually displayed - in darktable speak this is the "region of interest" (ROI). | ||
|
||
Yet - for exports we have to process the whole image - likely without downscaling - resulting in much larger processing times | ||
and possibly visible differences compared to what you have seen in darkroom. | ||
|
||
These differences are mostly very subtle but in some cases they are likely to be observed. | ||
Modules like "diffuse or sharpen" using large radii, "profiled denoise" or "local contrast" are more prone to this problem. | ||
|
||
For the user this usually means: there will be visible and unexpected differences between "what you see in darkroom" and the exported image. | ||
Also there might be visible differences if you zoom in or out. | ||
|
||
To avoid these problems you might activate the high quality processing mode. If toggled on, the darkroom pixelpipes are processed | ||
with all available data so the results are as while exporting in high quality mode. | ||
|
||
Please note, this takes large resources and requires a good OpenCL card and CPU for a responsive user interface especially if you keep changing | ||
any module parameters. |
