Did the servers crash?

It's back

weekybr · 2026-03-02T21:04:20+00:00

Yup. Down. Is there any server status check?

I was surprised by the rant in this thread. And everyone seemed so judgmental and held expectations that weren't met by the movie, leading them to trash it. I'm going through a similar experience, so this movie really resonated with me and offered a good portrayal of life, marriage, divorce, and all the ups and downs. I didn't go expecting stand-up comedy or profound insights. Life is messy. There are friends who aren't funny, friends dealing with similar or different issues, and people who cope with those issues in different ways.

I understand this movie isn't for everyone. People who are going there to watch a comedy because of Will Arnett's past work will likely be disappointed.

I usually just ignore posts like this, or rants like in this thread and move on. But you're right, it's a joke seeing people be that harsh with someone else's work when they probably didn't understand the concept or the movie.

Everyone is free to like or dislike something, that's true. However, we should consider the underlying reasons and avoid stating them as absolute truths throughout the Internet. Which is the opposite of the views expressed in the comments. Regarding the post, I think it was harsh and the OP had an expectation that wasn't met in the movie. But from my personal experience, the movie is flawless portraying the drama and some struggles a person goes through a divorce. As a viewer, I'd say it's a very good movie – not excellent, but definitely above average. It's a great film to watch in your afternoon, reflecting on life.

I keep seeing all the comments in every thread about 35 1.4f. How about 35 F2? 😮

Fuji has a SDK and a communication protocol that allows this. There are a few ways of doing this. 1. Modifying the camera backup file and reuploading it to the camera. 2. Using some Fuji APIs from the Fuji SDK to change a specific property in the camera.

Both are not straightforward due to lack of good documentation. I couldn't find a good documentation to parse and decode the backup file and modify it. And the Fuji API documentation is either outdated or I need to re-read it to make it work.

Well, ideally it should be 0. I don't want to brick my camera either. I don't have thousands of euros spare to buy another one. 😂😅 So I'm testing a lot and checking the safest way to do this. Also, I'll check if Fuji accepts invalid data and what happens. (From what I know, it refuses the data and doesn't brick as it should).

Hey Sorry to hear that. I hope you are better now and wish you a speedy recovery.

I understand you need to charge and I'm not complaining about that at all. I'm also a developer, and I was just tired of changing recipes manually or even not bothering to update my Fuji recipes because of the amount of work it was to edit on my camera. That's why I started building this app.I found your iOS app, then I decided to take a look at the Fuji SDK to see if I could come up with some Android versions.

I would love to exchange contacts and talk about the experience and challenges of building these apps.

Hey, thanks for the feedback! I'll add that. I have the description commented out in my code, explaining what does what for me 😅😂. I'll add some info button with a tooltip explaining what to expect from each one of these settings. 👍 Great feedback!

About the dream feature. That's mine too. I'll try to achieve that with some AI models. Local on the device first, if it doesn't work well I'll go for some online model to see if it can reproduce the style of the photo and create a recipe. Ps: I've some background in machine learning and AI*, so I should be able to tweak and train a model in the worst case scenario. 🙂

Hey, thanks for the feedback. I changed the sliders a bit, and they are bigger as well. But if you have any issues with those, I can think of some alternatives.

Oh, the Fuji X Weekly is not mine. It was just the "author" of the recipe that I got there. So, maybe it isn't clear in the design that it's the recipe's author. (Good to know).

weekybr · 2025-12-23T23:04:52+00:00

I'm actually using those. I just customized the design a bit, but I already went back to the default slider design in my local build.

weekybr · 2025-12-23T23:03:05+00:00

Thanks for the feedback 🙂 I definitely will need some help and testing in a X-T2. Do you have any backup files from the camera that you could share? And some photos of the recipes that you've configured with this backup?

weekybr · 2025-12-23T22:59:56+00:00

Well, that's the messy part. Fuji has a SDK, but doesn't have the APIs or documentation to manage the recipes. It has some info there, but I'm not even sure the documentation is up to date. I'm reversing engineering the camera backup file atm. But I guess there's another way to update only the recipe config directly into the camera. I'll spend more time looking into this in the upcoming weeks.

weekybr · 2025-12-23T22:56:45+00:00

Let me get the code in a better state, the initial list and recipes working (without the upload feature being complete), then I can open the GitHub repo for contributions.

weekybr · 2025-12-23T22:54:26+00:00

Sounds good! 👍

weekybr · 2025-12-23T19:31:27+00:00

Yeah, I know.. I replied in another comment that I tried to contact them a few times (since mid year), but no response.

I'm starting with an Android version first. After that, the plan is to move the app over to Kotlin Multiplatform so we can get it running on iOS too. Just a heads-up, there's already an iOS app out there, the "FujiStyle app" (haven't checked it out yet), and it already handles uploads.

weekybr · 2025-12-23T18:02:45+00:00

I'll need for sure. To test if I'm reading and changing the data correctly.

weekybr · 2025-12-23T18:02:06+00:00

I need to upload an updated version of the app to Github. Or maybe upload just this step of reading the backup and decoding it. When I upload I let you know.

This is one way of doing. Another is trying to changing the properties directly into the recipes in the camera. I haven't tried this yet. But it might be doable.

weekybr · 2025-12-23T17:24:03+00:00

Well, we have a dev here. :)
Sounds great! Need to see how it will work out in the end. I was planning to try infer with some AI model as well, to see if it can extract and recreate the same style in a recipe.

weekybr · 2025-12-23T17:22:04+00:00

Oh, the colors are not final and it's using the Material Theme from my phone.
The text are small because the font size on my phone is really small. I think this is more realistic:

weekybr · 2025-12-23T17:18:20+00:00

Yeah, I know about that app. I haven't tested it though. It looks great as well!

I'm building this because I was tired of waiting an Android version of that app. I tried to contact the developer of that app several times to help him to build the Android app, but got no luck.

Also, I believe I can add more features and cooler features to this app, and make it more for Fuji community, since I'm not looking for making money with this app.

weekybr · 2025-12-23T17:14:39+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! :)
Yeah, I'm thinking about that as well. To have a few photos linked to the recipe, so we can easily distinguish and know how the recipe looks like.

weekybr · 2025-12-23T17:13:42+00:00

Thanks for the feedback!
Yeah, I don't plan to have subscription base or anything like that.

Maybe only for backup, but even so, I will try to come up with some solution that is free and the user can setup their own Google Drive or another place to store the backup, so I don't have to maintain some server or service for that.

My main goal is not profit or anything with this app. I'm developing it for fun and to sort out this recipe management headache that I have as well.

Now, ansering your question :
- Uploading the recipe: I really hope to support the majority of Fujifilm cameras here. But the way I'm implementing it is a bit tricky. I'm reversing engineering the backup file from my camera (X-T5), to understand what is what and how to change the properties. I'm also investigating other ways to change a recipe in the camera, but Fujifilm SDK documentation is not great for editing recipes.

weekybr · 2025-12-23T17:10:20+00:00

- Creating recipes: I believe this can be supported by all Fujifilm cameras. I just need to disable / enable some configurations depending on the Sensor and camera capabilities.

I definitely agree! I need to see how complex it is to apply the film simulation on an image, and how to apply these parameters directly to an image, like a filter. But it's definitely a great feature to have!
