Hi Sebastian-<div><br></div><div>These are problems we are dealing with right now (you have a number of issues, from complete metadata support to number of channels) -- the bad news is the vendors are doing various things in their file formats that we have to deal with. They tailor their software to handle the problem for their file format-- we get to do it for all of them!</div><div><br></div><div>A more detailed response will follow, but can you confirm whether the problem you are having with Zeiss is a 510 or 710 file? </div><div><br></div><div>We are having a meeting to discuss all these problems tomorrow and will report back to the community over the weekend.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div><br></div><div>Jason<br><div><div><br></div><div>On 30 Oct 2008, at 12:03, Sebastian Cachero wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite">Hi,<div><br></div><div>We have just installed omero in the lab and are having a couple of problems while trying to import some confocal stacks from a number of different microscopes (leica sp5, zeiss 510-710, biorad). </div><div><br></div><div><div apple-content-edited="true"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0; "><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><div>1.
