Convert .hdr to equirectangular .png with Blender

cubemap-rendersetup.blend has removed or decreased to the fullest all kinds of unnecessary render settings if rendering an HDRI only (did you know 1 sample is enough for this job?). The camera is set to the centerpoint, its perspective 360° equirectangularly set up.

I tried converting an HDRI (.hdr) to a .png or .jpg by hand - the colors got messed up. Rerendering with this setup did the trick.

Convert equirectangular image to cubemap with Python

python equi_to_cube.py equimap.png

The presented HDRIs are from HDRI-Haven,
the scripts are made by people from Stackoverflow.
I did nothing but using glue here!
