Change decode plugin

For file formats that have more than one plugin that can decode them, is there any way of finding out just which one is actually performing it? And possibly to change it, without removing a plugin entirely? I'd like to do this to troubleshoot performance problems in a couple more esoteric formats, but it's kind of tough.

Currently there is no other solution than removing the plugin. But you have the problem only for jpeg 2000...

You could simply rename the plugin and change the extension, then change the name back when you want to use it again.

I was hoping to do it (once a useable sdk is reposted) for a couple existing formats, to easily find out if performance changes (and bugs, of course...). But you're right, it's only a little more work that way, I won't worry about it.
