2.5. macOS Image IO integration

MeVisLab contains a macOS-specific image format plugin that interfaces with the macOS Image IO framework and provides read access to most of the macOS image formats, e.g. using the ImageLoad module. At the time of writing (macOS 10.5.4), supported formats include:

JPEG-2000, Adobe Photoshop, Camera-RAW, GIF, Radiance, Quicktime Image, DNG, PICT, Targa, SGI Image, Windows Icon, Mac Icon

Currently, the following extensions are registered by the plugin:

3FR AI ARW BMP CR2 CRW DCR DNG EXR FFF FPX GIF HDR ICNS ICO J2K JP2 JPE JPEG JPF JPG JPX MOS MRW NEF ORF PCT PDF PEF PIC PICT PNG PNTG PSD QIF QTI QTIF RAF RAW SGI SRF TGA TIF TIFF XBM

The plugin will only read an image if none of the other MeVisLab image plugins handle this image format, e.g. 3D-TIFF files will be accessed using the dedicated TIFF image reader of MeVisLab.
