Since ExifToolsGui now relies on WIC (Windows Imaging Component) a few words on the codecs I have tested. | ||
|
||
The codecs are used in 2 places. First in the Thumbnails that you can see in the filelist when you set the Details to off. Second in the preview situated Left Bottom. | ||
|
||
I have tested 3 codecs with PEF (Pentax) and DNG images. | ||
The DNG images were either created directly by the camera, or converted with Adobe DNG Converter. | ||
Camera's used are Pentax K100D, Pentax K-X and Pentax K5II-s. | ||
|
||
I also have JPG's and MP4's created by an Android Samsung phone, the standard Windows Codecs are sufficient for them. | ||
|
||
1) Raw Image Extension that you can obtain from the Microsoft store. | ||
|
||
Pef: Works in Preview and Thumbnails | ||
Dng: Works in Preview, but very often not for the Thumbnails. | ||
|
||
Other Raw formats like Sony Arw, Canon CR2 and Nikon Nef seem to work, but I have a very limited amount of images to test. | ||
|
||
2) FastPicture viewer. Download from https://www.fastpictureviewer.com/ | ||
|
||
Looking at the website you may think it is not free. But if you only need the Raw codec the 'Home Basic' is sufficient and is free for peronal use. | ||
Install the 32/64 Bits version as required by your OS. | ||
In the installer dialog only keep the 'Images Codecs (Raw Support)' set the other to 'Entire feature will be unavailable'. Unless you want try them ofcourse. | ||
|
||
All tested raw formats (Pef, Dng noticeably) work for Thumbnails an Preview. | ||
It is worth mentioning that the preview in the raw file is extracted. So very fast, but the camera settings are not applied. | ||
|
||
3) Adobe DNG Codec 2.0 | ||
Adobe does not provide this Codec anymore, but if you search the net you will find the links. | ||
|
||
Works for Thumbnails and Preview, obviously only for DNG files. | ||
Contrary to the FastPicture viewer is can apply the camera settings, which makes it considerable slower. | ||
If you install FastPicture viewer and Abobe DNG Codec both, the latter is preferred by Windows. | ||
|
||
If you have more information post it on GIT Hub (https://github.com/FrankBijnen/ExifToolGui/), or the ExifTool forum (https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?topic=15053.0) . | ||
