DrishtiImport 2.6.6 regression: Unknown field tag errors #46

Closed neurolabusc closed 4 years ago

neurolabusc commented 4 years ago

I followed Robert Asher's YouTube tutorial, linked from the GitHub Drishti home page. He illustrates downloading and importing a Mongolian Gerbil from DigiMorph. When I tried this with version 2.6.6, I got multiple errors for each of the 1394 images:

TIFFReadDirectory Warning

C:/gerbil/8bitTIFF/merio0001.tif: Unknown field with tag 50838 (0xc696) encountered

Since the YouTube video was based on version 2.6.4, I tried that and was able to convert the images without incident. A google search suggests many other tools show these warnings. It would nice if the importer could be run in a quiet mode, or could combine all the warnings and show them in a single dialog window or log file, instead of confronting the user with thousands of sequential warnings.

Hi Chris, Try tiffplugin.dll from https://cloudstor.aarnet.edu.au/plus/s/ykqMmmikfXxHxKC

Replace tiffplugin.dll from importplugins directory Cheers, Ajay
