OpenEXR supports mixed 32-bit float, 16-bit half, and 32-bit integer channels. As I recall, 32-bit integer OpenEXR support is intended for Z-buffers. You're right that you don't want to crush from 32f to 16h. Setting everything to 32f isn't the best answer either. The plug-in needs to detect which channel type it is in the file and open the right type in CinePaint. Since CinePaint doesn't support Half as a type that seems a problem, but not really. Support for the obsolete 16-bit chopped float RnH format could be dropped and simply replaced with Half. At least one studio has customized CinePaint to do that. I don't think we've gotten the patch, but I think it's mostly just changing the 16rnh macros. Robin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
