PM5 and IIQ Phase One RAW Format

[Kirk Baker]

Jochen,

OK, neither the .TIF or .IIQ images load in high quality in the quick look feature of the Finder on my system.  I don't have either of the Apple apps you listed installed.

But we now know that if those apps are installed then the OS can load those images in high quality.  It may then be possible to modify Photo Mechanic to also load those images using the features of the OS on your system.

I'll check into it next week when I'm back at work.

Thanks for feedback.

Have a nice weekend.

Hello Kirk

Thanks for feedback and support.

I don't see a difference between V_16299 and V_16399, see screenshot.
Maybe I make a mistake or must do other work.
I have install the V_16399 near the V_16299.
Both have different names in folder application of Mac OS X 10.9.5.
So I can run one after the other. I haven't delete a preference before I install the V_16399.

Regards

Jochen

OK, then I'll have to add some logging code and get you to test and return the log file to me so I can see what is going on.  I'll get you an updated build and instructions, likely tomorrow.

Please try this version (it won't likely improve things but it will give me information) :

Thanks for feedback. Hope I do the right work.
I start PM.
PM is open.
Then I add only here the zip from ~/Library/Caches/Photo Mechanic/PM_log.zip

That's exactly what I needed.  Here is a new build (it likely won't make any visible difference but will give me more information) :

Please send me the updated zipped log file.

Jochen,

Unfortunately, it appears that Apple's ImageIO framework cannot render your IIQ images.  I'll try one last change to see if it will make any difference but I don't expect it to work.  I'll have a new build for you in a few minutes.  I don't know why the quick look feature works for (perhaps PhaseOne installed a quicklook handler) you.

Please try this build: http://www.camerabits.com/download/PhotoMechanic5R16402.dmg

Please send me the zipped log file.  Also make note of any improvements.  (Or that there are no improvements at all.)

Hello Kirk

Hope there isn't misunderstanding.

What do You mean with improvements?

I install PM5, change the name in Application with an V ...  at the end, than I start PM5 ..., select relevant Folder with pictures, use Help > Reveal Support Data and attach .zip in thread.

So I don't carry out improvements.

Is that right?

Following Info I received from PhaseOne some days before:

Die eingebetteten Previews in den RAW-Dateien dienten hauptsächlich dazu, im Finder alter Mac OS X-Versionen zumindest eine kleine Vorschau anzeigen zu können. Mittlerweile lässt sich dies durch Quicklook anders handhaben. so dass in der Vorschau bzw im Finder schon eine höher auflösende Preview gerendert wird. Ist einmal Capture One auf einem aktuellen Mac OS X installiert, werden die Previews auch entsprechend größer gerändert.

In this last version I forced Apple's ImageIO technology to try and load and render images from your camera even though ImageIO says your camera is not supported.  If it makes the images look better, then I want to know.  If they still view with bad quality, then I want to know.

Thanks,
