<div class="">Hi,<br class="">


<br class="">


I have been reading about the problems you’ve had to open MRXS with JPEGXR files. I am very motivated to create a reader for this type of file, even if it only allows me to do a slow conversion to a more open format.<br class="">


<br class="">


I couldn’t find however any source code or pull request that would give me hints on how to start reading these damn .DAT files and something already done to read the metadata .ini file.<br class="">


Is there anything? Could you please point me to it? I would like to give it a try.<br class="">


<br class="">


Thank you very much.<br class="">


<br class="">


Cheers,<br class="">
