Fuji X20 .RAF Conversion Crashes PWP7 Beta

Post by frankpix »

The subject says it all.

When I open a Raw file (.raf) produced by a Fuji X20, PWP7 begins the raw conversion, the "Loading Raw Image" progress bar gets all the way to the right, the program seems to freeze for about 5-10 seconds and then it crashes with the message: Picture Window Pro/32 7.0.8 has encountered a problem and needs to close..."

Would you like me to send a .raf file that you can experiment with?

Frank, PWP uses dcraw for RAW-conversion, and according to the dcraw website http://www.cybercom.net/~dcoffin/dcraw/ the X20 is not supported yet (dcraw version 9.17)
You can check the dcraw version used in PWP in Help - About Picture Window Pro.

Thank you Dieter!

I thought the X20 was going to be supported in dcraw 9.16, but I can see it's not supported yet. (I knew about that cybercom page but I never scrolled to the bottom.)

I suspect software vendors may be having some trouble with demosaicing of the X-Trans sensor. At this point Raw conversion support for the X-Trans is a bit thin. I even tried the latest DNG Converter, which is listed as supporting the X20, but no joy.
