SFMTransfer doesn’t work from CLI

[revilotio]

Problem The TransferSML works only from within the Meshroom GUI but not in CLI.

My current workflow

1. Create and export a SFM-File to localize the Camera-Transformations (I am using this as camera-calibration)
2. Create a new image dataset with the exact same camera-transformations
3. Use the new dataset in a seperate meshroom file and apply the previously generated camera poses to the current ones using the "SFM-Transfer" - Node: This works from within the MeshRoom GUI. When I am using the “–pipeline” option for the CLI however I am getting the following error:

What I am trying to archive I have a camera rig that I use to construct many meshes, thus the construction process must be executed from CLI. On top of that each mesh must have the same transformation system. That is rotation, scale and position of the subsequential ground-planes must align. As a side note I have looked into the using-known-camera-poses workflow but struggled to set it up correctly, which is why I am using this SFMTransfer as workaround. I would appreciate any help on this! Thanks already in advance :)

My Test Image Dataset • 58 Sharp High Quality Images • All viewpoints are being recognized correctly using the default pipeline

Desktop • Windows 10 • Python Version 3.8 • Meshroom Version 2020.1.1 (release version)
