RIOT as plug-in for other applications
RIOT plugin for The GIMP, IrfanView, XnView and other supporting applications
Plug-ins for RIOT
Even if RIOT is available as plug-in for other programs like IrfanView or GIMP, RIOT itself can be extended with plug-ins to enhance it’s functionality.
Currently only input plug-ins are supported. In the future I hope more plug-in types will be added.
Download the RAW + HDR plugin package – allows you to open HDR, OpenEXR and RAW camera images
Special notice to IrfanView users
IrfanView has bundled into the plugin collection the Lite version of the RIOT plugin.
Here you can find the extended version (also FREE) that goes beyond Lite version offering extended functionality.
I always recommend the extended version over the Lite one.

I use Irfanview, and just updated RIOT to 0.4.6. Thanks for making the extended version of a fabulous program. It installed in Irfanview just fine.
I also downloaded the plug-in file. You said: “Even if RIOT is available as plug-in for other programs like IrfanView or GIMP, RIOT itself can be extended with plug-ins to enhance it’s functionality.
Download the RAW + HDR plugin package – allows you to open HDR, OpenEXR and RAW camera images.”
However, I can’t figure out how to get RIOT to recognize the plug in. I extracted the .zip file, and got 3 .fip files, but I don’t know what to do with them, and I can’t find anything in RIOT to tell me.
Thanks in advance for your assistance,
Harry

Hello Harry
Thank you for your support. If you are using the RIOT IrfanView plugin you can copy all the 3 .fip files in the main IrfanView folder or in the plugins folder.

Any JPEG2000 support in the future?

Currently there is only read support for JPEG 2000.
Write support will not be added until this format will be widely supported on web browsers.
