error reading DNG file

Post by pierrelabreche »

I have a DNG file that cannot be read by PWP.

However, using Adobe's DNG converter to make it compatible with earlier versions of DNG, PWP returns the following results:
  • 11.2 not OK "error reading file: ..."
  • 6.6 not OK "error reading file: ..."
  • 5.4 OK
  • 4.6 OK
I will send you sample files separately.

PWP uses the third party LibRaw.dll to read DNG files -- most DNG files seem to read OK but there are many variations of the DNG format so I am not too surprised that some of them don't work. In any case, not much I can do except wait for the next release of LibRaw which could be a while.
