Can't open nef images in gimp 2.9.3

Hello

One of the greatest things of the new gimp 2.9.3 is the handling of nef files (raw camera images), they even appear in the file format list, great! But in my windows 8 x64 bits with Partha's build it just doesn't open, when trying to do that GIMP says image can't be opened, but i can open the image even on windows photo software (the one that is fullscreen) and it is ok. I dont know if this is a bug of GIMP or something specific to windows so i'll wait until someone else can duplicate this issue.

Regards
Alex

Using default GIMP 2.9.3 updated a couple of days ago on Linux, and opening a CR2 file, the resulting image is the correct size, and only 8-bits, so I'm assuming the raw file is being opened by UFRaw, yes?

Opening a NEF file using GIMP, the resulting image is just a 160px by 120px thumbnail, though the file on disk is 17MB. So NEF doesn't seem to be working through the UFRaw plug-in.

I'm using UFRaw version 0.22, compiled with the GIMP plug-in, FWIW, and in case the UFRaw version makes a difference.

Some GEGL code suggests that there might be raw file support independent of UFRaw (rawload.c). Is this available through GIMP?

Unsure if this made it to 0.20+ though. And anyway, there have been no installers of UFRaw for Windows for a long time (0.19.2 was the last one, and it was before the aforementiond patch).

Yes Elle, thats a bit different error, but still an error. Is there some official suport for NEF files inside GIMP, maybe through GEGL?

The error to which I was actually referring was the fact that when opening a NEF file, all I get using default GIMP 2.9.3 on Linux is the thumbnail, not the full image.

If you can't open a NEF file using GIMP (on Windows),

and all I get when opening a NEF file using GIMP (on Linux) is a tiny little thumbnail,

then it seems to me that these might be related errors. But of course they might be two entirely separate errors.

Can't open nef images in gimp 2.9.3

Hi Alex.

When you select RAW images (with a long list of image formats such as cr2, nef etc.) from the dropdown list and then click on your NEF, does it open UFRaw or not? Let me know otherwise and we'll work to get it fixed for you. You can email me directly or respond there.

Don't rely on the automatic detection since it's a back and forth between GIMP and UFRaw. NEF is based on the TIFF format and hence the confusion.

Thanks,
Partha

PS: Another recommendation I would make is to use RawTherapee to preprocess and then send to GIMP.

Yes, there is only for NEF. If you are using my build then select NEF image, it should open a 32-bit floating rendition.

Bottom line as I said below, don't use the automatic detection feature.

Dear Partha

Thank for your reply, and for your daily builds!, I can confirm both ways: 1. open NEF files with automatic detection yiels an error, gimp cant open image 2. selecting nef file in the list yields an image, but only a tiny little thumbnail, as Elle said before

So this might be a bug, are you handling nef files with some plugin?

Can't open nef images in gimp 2.9.3

Dear Partha

2015-12-21 12:19 GMT-05:00, Partha Bagchi :

Alex,

1. Open GIMP 2.9.3
2. Open the File Dialog (File -> Open) 3. From the drop down list, click on raw image ( File type = raw image, Extension = 3fr, ari, arw, cap, cine, cr2, etc.) 4. Open your NEF image.

This will open UFRaw and then do your processing and then open it in GIMP.

Tell me if this does or does not work. I just tested it and it's fine.

You are correct that NEF itself is broken and I'll investigate why.

Thanks, Partha

When trying this procedure indeed, the ufraw soft is launched but it says

TIFF image error Unknown field with tag 36867 (0x9003) encountered

So I think it tries to open it as a TIFF image. Eventhough it still opens the image as thumbnail, very odd.

Am struggling to use gimp for the past month. Thinking of going back to Photoshop.

Do we expect to have the NEF issue solved once and for all in the near future, since this is ongoing for some time?

There is *not* a "NEF issue" as .nef is a nikon proprietary file which need dcraw or ufraw front end to open and pass to gimp. gimp by itself cannot open a nef file. I don't work on windows, but linux. Partha may have added something to his gimp packages to facilitate opening non-open format files, but to my knowledge, gimp must call an external program to pass nef files to it. gimp is *not* photoshop.

This not entirely correct. Or, to be more precise, this is entirely incorrect.

Unstable version of GIMP has a plugin that reads/export from/to a number of file formats supported in GEGL. One of them is NEF, which is supposed to be loaded via libraw (not dcraw), but doesn't appear to be loaded properly for some reason.

The stable version of GIMP doesn't have this plugin and, therefore, doesn't have this issue. Therefore, the solution is to stick to the stable version until this is resolved one way or another.

Windows vs. Linux are irrelevant.

Photoshop is irrelevant (ACR is a plugin, just like UFRaw).

Go get a cold brew or a hot coffee, lower the attitude intensity, and come back in a better mood.

You have been given explanation. Or you could branch the code and add nef support yourself.

Can't open nef images in gimp 2.9.3

Hi James,

You may not be aware that Nikon provides two FREE programs for working with NEF files.

- ViewNX-i for transferring from your card reader or camera (click "Transfer" icon), among other things. - Capture NX-D for working on exposure compensation, Active-D lighting, etc.

Both programs can export to JPEG, TIFF 8bit and TIFF 16 bit files. This is not the answer you were hoping for, but it is a work-around for now.

I believe (new GIMP user here) that GIMP only opens TFF 8bit files, or converts 16s to 8s, so saving in 8bit TIFF saves any loss in conversion.

I use the two Nikon programs all the time because I found Lightroom to be lousy.

Cheers,
Rick

That's quite unlikely. As mentioned earlier, GIMP 2.8.x simply doesn't have the plugin for loading NEF.

Unstable version of GIMP has a plugin that reads/export from/to a number of file formats supported in GEGL. One of them is NEF, which is supposed to be loaded via libraw (not dcraw), but doesn't appear to be loaded properly for some reason.

I don't think so: Here is Line 62 from the relevant gegl file loader:

command = g_strdup_printf ("dcraw -4 -c '%s'\n", op_raw_load->path);

You are looking at operations/common/dcraw-load.c.

But I'm talking about operations/external/raw-load.c.

Also, installing dcraw doesn't not fix the issue here.

I am talking about dcraw-load.c. I have it working by modifying

command = g_strdup_printf ("dcraw -4 -c '%s'\n", op_raw_load->path); to
command = g_strdup_printf ("dcraw -4 -c \"%s\"\n", op_raw_load->path);

I do get buffer overrun and so some of the images are not rendered correctly as I have reported in gegl-developer list.

I don't have libraw installed but have dcraw 9.26.

Are you using Windows or some other OS?

OK. In Windows I had to disable the #ifdef _WIN32 in the beginning and define PIPE_MODE as "rb".

I got it to work in McGimp as well though.

You already know the solution, James: use the stable version.

am using 2.8.16!

That's quite unlikely. As mentioned earlier, GIMP 2.8.x simply doesn't have the plugin for loading NEF.

For loading NEF files you need the gimp-dcraw or gimp-ufraw packages installed. On my machine I'm using the dcraw based package.

Cheers!

Kevin.
