Reading MRSID Image format

Does anyone know where can I find somthing to read MRSID image format.
I find that exists a plug-in but it operates only using browser.
The problem is that I have to load an MRSID image like I do with jpge,tif ...
Thanks to all.
Stefano

Hello,
The Decode SDK is available from lizardtech now:
http://developer.lizardtech.com/
the only problem is it is written in C++. I'm willing to pay someone $300 US to port it to Java or at least make a jni port. So I could use java commands like:
MrSidFile mrsid = new MrSidFile("c:\test.sid");
mrsid.setView(330, 223, 5003, 4890);
mrsid.drawView(graphics2d, 0, 0, render.width, render.height);Thanks,
Eric

  • Aperture 2 Unsupported Image format?

    I'm a fairly new Aperture user, having received Aperture 2 as a gift and just installed it to my new iMac. When uploading RAW files from a Canon 5DII I get a message which reads: unsupported image format. I updated the app via Software Update in the Apple file. What do I need to do to get Aperture to work? I'm pretty sure it also won't recognize jpegs from my camera...
    Thanks for your help!!

    thanks.
    that's kinda my gut instinct about Ap2 and Lion too. I'm talking to Apple about this too but, guess what, they haven't come back with a conclusive answer yet - hence i'm scouring the forums to see if anyone else has already asked Apple the same question and got a definite yes or no out of them.
    i've bought and tested Lion and like many of the new features and dislike quite a few too, but given the choice, i'd probably stay on SL for Ap2 (and Front Row, Apple!!).   But my hand may be forced as my SL machine is dying and Apple say they won't repair but will give me a new MBP - which only comes with Lion - and Apple have confirmed that the new MBP firmware will not run SL...    hence my frantic scramble to see if I can still run Ap2 on Lion
    My gripes with Ap3 are too numerous to mention and here isn't really the place to discuss but biggies for me are the removal of gridlines from the Straightening tool and the removal of the ability to use a single keystroke to go from Ap3 windowed Browser mode to viewing a single image in Ap3 full screen - yes, you can go from Ap3 full-screen Browser mode to single image with a keystroke, but staying permanently in Ap3 full-screen Browser mode is not possible as many actions are not available in Ap3 full-screen mode and you have to go to Ap3 windowed mode to access them - in fact some actions actually kick you out of Ap3 full-screen Browser mode back into Ap windowed mode...
    if that makes any sense... had to insert 'Ap3' a lot to avoid confusion with the new Lion full-screen mode or i end up saying things like 'changing from Lion-Windowed-Aperture-Windowed mode to either Lion-Full-Screen-Aperture-Windowed mode or Lion-Full-Screen-Aperture-Full-Screen mode...'
    was hoping when they'd have tidied that up a bit with Lion - maybe Ap4?

  • "Unsupported Image Format" all of a sudden, with previously workable files

    Folks,
    I've got an issue that seems very strange indeed.
    Months ago, I bought a Pentax K20D. I also bought a 17" MacBook Pro and Aperture. Camera and Aperture played well together.
    I encountered the known issue with white spots on the image when using the 2-second timer for long exposures. I read about how the Pentax firmware update 1.01 changed the EXIF Make information, causing Aperture to be unable to read the K20D PEF RAWs. So I waited.
    When Aperture 2.1.1 was released (and I think the Apple RAW update), I installed both of those. When I heard through this forum that the updates fixed the problem, I also updated my camera's firmware and confirmed that it worked.
    So smooth sailing for a few months on Aperture 2.1.1, OS 10.5.3 (or .4, I forget), and K20D firmware 1.01.
    Then I bought a Mac Pro 8-Core with 10.5.4 on it. I sold the 17" MacBook Pro. I used the Migration Wizard to move my user account from one machine to the other, but did a fresh install of all applications. (I've been an Apple tech for the past 7 years, and have various certifications. I know the user transfer process isn't perfect, but it should have the following results... read on)
    Now, in Aperture 2.1.1 on 10.5.4 with all updates, PEF RAWs taken with K20D firmware 1.01 that were previously edited, manipulated, etc just fine on my MacBook Pro say "Unsupported Image Format" in a big reddish-black box when I try to view the master. If I switch to Quick Preview, it displays just fine, but is un-adjustable. Additionally, any NEW images I copy from my K20D show in the Import window as being 0x0 pixels (or occasionally 160x120 pixels) and will only show a tiny preview or "Unsupported Image Format." All PEF RAWs taken with K20D firmware 1.0 are just fine.
    So here's what I've done:
    1) Tested a fresh install of 10.5.4 on another HD in the Mac Pro. Installed Aperture 2.1, updated to 2.1.1. This should be perfectly clean. It gives the "Unsupported Image Format" error with any new images from my K20D. Copying the library from my other partition gives the same problems as described earlier.
    2) Tested a fresh install of 10.5.3 on another partition in a Macbook Pro. Installed Aperture 2.1, updated to 2.1.1. Applied the Apple RAW update and iLife enhancements. It gives the same errors as before.
    3) Tested a fresh install of 10.4.11 on another partition in a Macbook Pro. Installed Aperture 2.1, updated to 2.1.1. This worked perfectly for all PEFs and DNGs.
    4) Took a month-old backup (from when everything was working just fine) of my Aperture Library and loaded it into all of the above configurations. Same results!
    So what is the deal here? Aperture all of a sudden can't read images that it itself was able to edit a month ago? How come it works just fine in 10.4.11? This seems really messy. I have essentially lost a lot of the work I've put in.
    I can use DNGs moving forward, but my past work is now messed up, and the DNGs are almost 75% bigger than the PEFs!
    Anyone have any ideas for resolution or should I just call Apple?
    Message was edited by: MonsieurBon

    If it's any consolation, I had the EXACT same problem today; just opened Aperture 2 and my entire library of images shows "unsupported image format' -- the thumbnails are still intact but clicking on any image suddenly shows the red screen.
    Same situation, these images were previously editable and accessible. We had a power outage an hour ago and initially I thought my library had crashed, but I was not actually using Aperture 2 at the time of the outage so I don't think that's the case.
    Given the relatively sparse attention Apple gives to these forums, I don't expect there will be a quick response.
    I have Leopard 10.5.4 installed, I don't have access to another version of the OS to see if I can get it work. If I'm not mistaken, wasn't there a series of Software Updates recently? I click on these without really checking the apps that are affected; could Aperture have been one of the apps 'revised' by the recent update?

  • PDF image format?

    From what I understand, the PDF file format can contain text, vector graphics and raster graphics in many different formats. When I print to a PDF (via Save as PDF... in the print dialog box), what type of image format is actually used inside the PDF (which I assume is just a container format, really)?
    Say I come across a full quality RAW file from a 10-megapixel camera. If I open that image in an image editor and then print it as a PDF, what ends up in the PDF file? Is it a JPEG? A PNG? Some type of otherwise unknown lossless format?
    I assume the screenshot mechanism in OS X that saves to PDF uses similar technology. In that case, is a screenshot saved as a PDF better or worse quality than a PNG or JPEG (using a utility like TinkerTool to change the default screenshot format)?

    Actually, it doesn't matter what you set on a folio level. The article settings override the folio settings. The folio settings are supposed to appear as the default when you create articles, but it doesn't work that way at this time.

  • Canon EOS 350D .CR2 pics still 'unsupported image format'?

    I was releaved to see updates in Mac OS X (10.4.8) and Aperture 1.5 the other week, hoping it would solve my problem, being able to finally work with my RAW files (.cr2) from the Canon EOS 350D (yes, being in Europe these days).
    I followed the posts on the forum throughout the summer, which recommended waiting for the next OS X update (which should support the camera in that raw definition file) and I didn't want to use the workaround, which clearly had problems with the colors on the pics.
    After all the updates the other week, nothing has changed on my MBP. Still the 'Unsupported Image Format' on my RAW files. On the other hand, I don't see any posts on problems with the 350D camera anymore as well (only on CR2 files in general).
    Am I missing something really basic here (tried rebuild library)? Or, have all the CR2 formats gone down the drain on Aperture 1.5?
    Any help is appreciated, as I have already looked into Adobe Lightroom Beta and although I don't want to switch, the files seem to work there...

    Yes, the import thumbnail is as you describe, the low res. JPG that is embedded in the RAW wrapper.
    10.4.8 needs to be installed prior to Aperture 1.5 .... from a functionality point of view. I am not aware of a dependence that says AP 1.5 has to be uninstalled before a 10.4.8 upgrade or any such, not that AP 1.5 should need re-installing after a 10.4.8 upgrade .... assuming it was working correctly beforehand.
    But to this last point, since you have an issue which may be related to AP or OS X, it is likely worthwhile updating both and in order.
    Final thought. do you import directly from the CF card / camera vs. using an intermediary tool such as ImageBrowser or DP Professional? I am wondering if Aperture is very OCD aboout the image format wrapper and chokes at the least excuse that other apps. and tools ignore.

  • Raw Files Appear Deleted or Corrupted Suddenly in Aperture with Unsupported Image Format Error

    I have been using Aperture 3, latest update, for the past year. Today, I tried to import new raw files from my new Sony RX1r and, as far as I can see, all raw files in Aperture give the "Unsupported Image Format" and alert symbol in the library where not only new files should be, but also ALL PREVIOUS RAW FILES. These files do no even show up as existing in the iPhoto Library.
    This is, needless to say, distressing, as hundreds and hundreds of photos seem lost. Also, the files show a reduced pixel size and file sizes all go to .5 Mb. Some of the photos seemed to show up initially and look fine until I tried to open them, then they all either disappear or show the Unsupported Image Format instead of the opened file. I have tried rebuilding the iPhoto library, but no help.
    I have looked in these discussions and see similar problems with Aperture. Perhaps, Apple has not made an update for the RX1r from the RX1 for raw files, but why should all older raw files now be corrupted, especially those recently made with my Olympus OM-D? Had no problem with Aperture until this disaster.
    Please help.
    William

    Just an update. Restarted computer and attempted rebuilds of iPhoto library a couple more times and finally files and photos mostly recovered, except for those I had tried to open. Aperture seems to have a problem, or a host of them, dealing with RAW files, and there is no update yet for the Sony RX1R for Aperture or iPhoto. Lightroom 5, on the other hand, seems to work great with these files directly, so that will be where all photos go for now. Will iPhoto and Aperture just become old archives? It is so infuriating that Apple does not allow for simple importing and exporting compatibility with such an excellent program as Lightroom 5 just to protect their somewhat poorly supported Aperture. I've been a staunch Apple supporter and user since the 80's, but having more doubts about the direction this company is taking.

  • Reading Camera Raw Format

    I'm a user of Lightroom 5 and Photoshop CS6 runiing the current version of each.  I signed up for Creative Cloud and have downloaded and installed Photoshop CC.  I have not downloaded and installed Lightroom from CC as I understand it is the exact same product as the standalone version.
    My question is - everytime I take a photo (DNG) from Lightroom and click to edit it in Photoshop CC - Photoshop CC opens a dialog box that says 'Reading Camera Raw Format'  That didn't happen when I opened images in CS6.  What causes this and how do I fix it?
    I have checked with a friend who also converted to Photoshop CC and he does not get that dialog (he is running Windows and I'm on a Mac)?

    Since you say you are up-to-date with LR an PS, this suggests you are using LR 5.2 and PS-CC/ACR 8.2.
    Whenever the versions of LR and ACR are compatible, then LR tells PS to open the raw file using LR’s settings, and PS uses the ACR plug-in to open the raw file with those settings.
    The message occurs when the time it takes to render the raw file on the way into PS longer than a certain amount of time. 
    If your LR and CS6-ACR were up-to-date and you weren’t seeing the message, then perhaps something was slightly faster with those two products, and the message wasn’t displayed, or perhaps PS-CC’s time-limit for showing that message was made a shorter amount of time.
    If your LR and CS6-ACR weren’t synchronized in their versions (e.g. LR 5.2 and CS6-ACF 7.1) then LR could have been rendering the file as a TIF or PSD so PS isn’t using ACR to render the file.
    As far as LR-non-CC and LR-CC being the same.  They operate on images files the same, the real difference will occur with LR 6, which you won’t have to pay extra for if you’re using the CC version. 
    There isn’t any reason to download and install LR-CC 5.2 when you already have the regular LR 5.2, but once LR 5.3 comes out, you might as well let CC download and install it, so you won’t have to worry about it, later.  It may be that you’ll have to uninstall LR non-CC 5.2, but perhaps that has been changed in recent updates of the CC Manager app or will be when LR 5.3 is release in the next few weeks.

  • Image formats that can be used directly in PDF

    Hi,
    after severel hours of searching google, discussion boards and the PDF reference, I could not find an answer, so hopefully you guys can help me .
    I have written my own little PDF exporter and want to include images. I figured out to include jpegs directly, with the DCTDecode filter.
    Are there other image formats, which can be included in PDF directly?
    I read somewhere, that GIFs - for example - has to be parsed to get the pixel data and than must be compressed again to be inserted in the PDF file. Therefore it would be easier for me to convert GIF to JPEG with an external program and then insert the JPEG into the PDF. Or is there an advantage, to include the GIF like described above?
    What about BMP, TIFF and other image formats?
    Is it possible to insert image files lossless into PDF?
    I know, lots of questions but i would be really glad if someone can help me .
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards, Maecky

    Hi,
    thanks for your answer.
    What exactly do you mean with "unwrap"? Should i just get the data without header of the image file and put it into the pdf stream? Otherwise i would have to decompress the format, or am I wrong?
    Thanks,
    kind regards, maecky

  • Loading custom image formats

    Hello all.
    I am wanting to load a custom image format into my Java application, and am wondering how to do that. I have a few ideas to try but I figure if there is a site out there (or someone with the knowledge), there is no need for me to re-invent the wheel. So hopefully, someone might be able to expedite my learning. :)
    The image format I want to read actually contains multiple images, with 1 color palette at the end of the file. I'd like to create a series of (I assume) BufferedImages for all the images contained within the file.
    Are there any sites out there that can send me through a quick tutorial on rolling my own images, or can anyone give me a short function to do so?
    Thanks so much!

    Okay... I failed. I could really use some help in getting this work. Please.
    I have a file, which contains 1 or more compressed bitmap images and a palette. I have a small Perl script that will convert the images in the file into multiple bitmap image files, so I know where the data is and I know I have the data locations right. :)
    To create a BITMAP, I must reverse the order of the palette (perl function):
    sub reversePalette() {
      my $output = "";
      for (my $i=0; $i < length($_[0]); $i=$i+4) {
        $output = $output . substr($_[0], $i+2, 1) . substr($_[0], $i+1, 1) . substr($_[0], $i+0, 1) . chr(0);
      return $output;
    }For the image data itself, it uses a simple RLE encoding. If I see a 0, I check the next number and "uncompress" the data by adding that many 0's to the output file.
    So, what I would like to do is convert my Perl script into a Java class that will take this sprite file and return an array of BufferedImages, which can then be used for whatever.
    Any help in this would be greatly appreciated! I can't even figure out how to properly load a valid BMP file manually using WritableRaster and ColorModel. I'm so lost. :(

  • Aperture 3 and DNGs from LX5 raw files: unsupported image format

    My LX5 arrived, and I tried converting a raw file to DNG with Adobe DNG Converter 6.2.0.21 beta and importing it into Aperture. No luck: Aperture says it's an unsupported image format. I tried setting the compatibility as far back as possible in the preferences, and still no luck. Any idea why this doesn't work? I used Adobe DNG Converter multiple times to work with raw files from unsupported cameras, so it's a real surprise to get the unsupported image file message.
    —Andreas

    Unfortunately, this is more about Apple dragging its feet than a cutting edge issue. I got an LX3 and upgraded to Aperture 3 in February of this year. RW2s straight out of the camera always imported just fine. However, I've never been able to get a DNG generated from an RW2 with Adobe DNG converter to work. Interestingly, DNGs from another file format I use (PEF) work fine in Aperture.
    I submitted a issue report to Apple about the RW2 to DNG problem back in March, and like so many other suggestions to them, it seems to have vanished into the ether.

  • Reading a image file and printing it by a Servlet

    In a IMAGE TAG of HTML file i am calling servlets what will write a image to the browser.
    <IMG SRC="http://localhost/WriteImage" width="50" height="100">
    The Servlet WriteImage has to read a image from a location(it could be gif,jpeg,png or another format of images ) and it has to write to the above image tag.
    Anyone can u help me out how i can do this...
    I tried out with javax.imageio package but couldn't get it.
    Thank Q
    Vijay

    Your WriteImage servlet needs to read the image file in from wherever it is (hard drive, database, whatever), then write it back out to the browser. To do that, first use the HTTPServletResponse object to send the appropriate headers, then call the getOutputStream() method to get an output stream to write the data to. This data will be sent to the browser which, if you've set the headers correctly, will display it as an image.
    It's been a long time since I did this (we abandoned storing images in databases quite a long time ago), so I can't be more specific than that, but hopefully that'll be enough to get you going. If you run into any problems, reply and I'll see if I can help further.

  • In the image format...

    hi. I am making a little image 100 x 100 and it sayes in the
    middle "Ian Carry" then it bounces of the sides slowly...like one
    of thows screen savers. anyway, I went to publish settings a
    checked the .GIF and the .JPEG and I tested them both. none of then
    animate! they only show the first frame, thats all. how do I get a
    image format to move?
    thanks.

    Jpg is not an anition format. Gif can be if you selected
    "animation" when you exported.

  • After loading Lion I cannot open some pictures. I get Unsupported Image Format. It tells me picture was taken with Canon EOS Rebel with unknown lens

    After loading Lion I cannot open open some pictures in Aperture. I get Unsupported Image Format, all files even the ones I can open are .JPG. Also it tells me picture was made using Canon EOS Rebel with unknown lens.

    You mention that 'most' of your files are DNG. Try
    running the effected files through Adobe DNG
    converter again and then import your reprocessed
    files to Aperture and see if the problem persists.
    I had a problem with a batch of D2x files converted
    to DNG which had been metadata tagged by
    PhotoMechanic (the evil app).
    B.T.W. You mention that you had been using Bridge.
    Are you getting any of the embedded XMP metadata
    coming into Aperture during the import process?
    Already tried that multiple times...no luck. I'm wondering though if it might be related to metadata as you suggest. I'm still trying different things to see what happens.
    I was able to alleviate the problem on one set of images by painstakingly searching my external drive for the oldest backups I could find - CR2 files from before DNG conversion. I then ran those through DNG Converter and tried importing them again (this time, I embedded NO thumbnail, but I'm not sure if that made the difference - I think it was more likely a fluke in the original conversion that caused the problem). This time, it worked.
    Now, the big problem is that I still have a couple hundred images for which I can't seem to locate the original CR2 files. I don't typically keep them after conversion, as I don't have the space for both.

  • 10.5.2; Canon 1DsM3 Raw Files = "Unsupported Image Format" in Aperture

    Just did the update and pointed Aperture to a folder of Canon 1Ds Mark III raw files (standard raw files, no sRaw or anything like that). Thumbnail previews are grey and Viewer says, "Unsupported Image Format".
    Tried rebooting and verifying/fixing permissions. No help. No thumbnails, no images in Aperture.
    Canon 1Ds Mark III raw files do show fine in the finder and in Quick Look.
    Message was edited by: Jon Roemer

    I have the same exact issue.
    I do get the same error with 1Ds MIII raws.
    Also the G9 raws are not working.
    Finally after 3 months it's still not working
    I could imagine that there is the need to edit some property file (like I have read before in the forum somewere) to add the new cameras to the list of supported cameras.
    Are the D3, D300 raws working?
