dng Raw picture file handling

[Ursuppe]

Hi, I really like WMS, it smoothly works together with my Samsung BDB-6900 and displays most videos without any flaws. However, I have some issues with handling / displaying my RAW pictures (Adobe dng files), and would be happy if somone could help me in this respect.

* "keywords" are not extracted, the respective column remains empty
* the "date" is not read properly, it says 1.1.1970 for all files
* As the size of the frames, the original dimension of the raw file is used, not from the embedded jpeg. My dng files have 4:3 format (3664x2736 pixel), but to prepare them for the TV screen, I crop the pics to 16:9 format (3664x2052 pixel) in Lightroom 3 and save the preview jpg in the dng file. When I double-click this dng from within WMS, Faststone Image viewer opens and displays the image correctly in 16:9. The image-size column in WMS, however, still shows 3664x2736 pixel, and on the TV the cropped image is displayed distorted in 4:3. Only after manually editing the information 3664x2052 in WMS, the picture ist displayed correctly.

So my question is if there a way for me to configure WMS so that is reads keywords, time and dimension of the cropped preview image out of an Adobe dng file?

Thank you very much for your help,

Michael

Hi,

In the next version will be changes for dng-files (support for ppm-thumbnails, reading keywords). Unfortunately, I found no problems with date, if you can provide samples (link or support@wildmediaserver.com), I will try to fix.
