I'm working in an environment where many of the images will be in
the Open EXR format (www.openexr.org).
I notice that OS X "Preview" program can load EXR but Quicktime Pro
can not.
Does anyone know if there is some sort of third part open EXR
loader module for Quicktime Pro
or if there are any good tutorials about how to code one for
Quicktime?
I wrote an OpenEXR component for QuickTime. As it's owned by the
company I work for though, if I gave it to you, I'd have to shoot
you. Anyway, what I did was start with the ElectricImage sample code,
threw away the components I wasn't interested in (the Movie importer
stuff), leaving me with just GraphicsImporter, GraphicsExporter and
Codec components, and combined these with the OpenEXR libraries. It
wasn't actually that hard to do apart from the excitement of calling
into C++ from C. I've no idea what Preview is using to open EXR
files, but Preview seems to have a lot of hidden image formats
available which we don't know about.
