Vuescan Raw Infrared Clean w/ FS4000 problem

Hello,

Recently purchased Vuescan with the hopes of using the raw
file feature to scan and arcive family slides and then batch process
them to color correct, remove dust/scratches, etc.... I'm using
Vuescan 8.1.14 on Mac OSX 10.3.6 with a Canoscan FS4000 via USB.

Scaning to the raw file works great but when I try to go back and
scan from file to apply infrared clean, etc, the infrared cleaning
option doesn't show up under the filters tab as it does during the
original scan. After looking at the newsgroup I've tried seting the
Input to 64bit RGBI as well as seting the Raw Filetype to RGBI during
the original scan. Nothing seems to help.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated... is this simply
not a supported feature for the FS4000? I looked in the release notes
and don't see any specific mention.

Thanks for your time,
Casey Smith

Do you use Raw output with Scan or with Save (output tab)? If you
output with Save and you have infrared cleaning on while scanning the
Raw file is already cleaned and the IR channel is therefor not written.

Erik, thanks for responding... I'm outputing Raw with Scan. I can open
the resulting Tiff with photoshop and see the IR channel. Everything
looks good inside the file... I'm not having any of the alignment
problems with the IR channel as some have reported. Just don't get the
IR clean option in the Filters Tab when I try to scan from file. Any
ideas? Know where I can get an older version of Vuescan to see if this
is a new problem?

Thanks,
Casey

In this case you should submit a problem report to Ed using the
procedure described on http://www.hamrick.com/sup.html
