Hi there,

Is it possible to have support for the ".ARW" format of Sony used in their Sony Alpha 200 ?
Currently only Alpha 100 and Alpha 700 are well supported, Alpha 200 produce green picture when readed in full screen (while previous is correct).

Thanks by advance

Could you send me a sample, please

Yes, here => http://dl.free.fr/ejaJRDbFY/SonyAlpha200-Sample.arw

Thanks

Oups missed, sorry

Here is the correct link => http://dl.free.fr/jJ4UxP8OQ/SonyAlpha200-Sample.arw

Hello !

…Alpha 200 produce green picture when readed in full screen (while previous is correct).

• I downloaded your sample, it works perfectly here in 1.93.6-ß3!
- I can swithch to full screen in “View” and in the “Browser”, no problem.
- XP-Pro SP1 (and only 16 BPP as screen colour depth…)

Kind regards,
Claude

The problem is that the only version I have, and the only one on the site, is the v1.93.4
Where can I obtain this beta please ?


PS : and just one thing to be sure : is it the entire picture (3872x2592 pixels) you have in correct colors, or just the integrated preview (1600x1080 pixels) ?

Again…

• You can download the new ß HERE.
- Just update by changing the EXE and the new files "by hand", it's that I do always…

• I don't get the laaaarge pic, but that you call a "preview", is it another embedded format, or the thumb nail ?
- Anyway, I tested with 1.93.4, you're right, all is green in all view modes.
- Anyway, the correct preview is better than "green", and I assume that XnView is "blind" for the main large pic.
It took ~100 Mio RAM to load it here, though, and I can't renew such tests, that risks to hang the PC totally
(I've only 512 Mio RAM installed, shared with the on-board video card…)
• Wait and see the Author's opinion now

With XnView 1.93.6 Beta 3 the image is displayed as thumbnail and as preview. In image view, the image has 3880x2608 pixel. On the left side of the image one can see a white vertical stripe, about 13 pixel wide. Not sure whether this is part of the image or a bug.

Clo => yes it is an embedded format, little than the entire picture.
Thanks for the link to the beta

Helmut => tested with this beta 3 (by copying the whole archive, not juste the .EXE) : it works now, I haven got neither strippes nor green picture
Just one thing : it recognise my photo as 1940x1304 pixels instead of 3882x2608

Here is a shoot of XNView with the .ARW in it => http://images3.hiboox.com/images/1808/cda6e4oj.jpg


PS : is it possible to transfert this topic in an english (or french) section please ? Because I can understand russian

Can't understand => it's in french now
Perhaps some strange things because I'm not registered.
Please forgive my request

Nota : it is just at status-bar display : when I convert an ARW, size is correctly interpreted, idem when I read the properties of the picture

Try please : Tools >>> Browser >>> Preview >>> Camera RAW >>> Choose : «Full size»

OK it works perfectly.
I've understood the option now, thanks a lot
