Hi Robert,

Many thanks for the detailed report, the file sharing and the investigation. We could indeed reproduce
the issue you described.

So far the netcdf dependency upgrade has been blocked by Java 6 which we will drop for
Bio-Formats 5.2.0. We will be looking into upgrading this HDF library as well as part of the next
release.

Also, is it possible for us to use your attached .ims file as a public sample?

Best,
Sebastien

Hi,

My name is Robert and I’m a senior software engineer working in Andor Technology. I was trying to use Bio-Formats importer in Fiji to open files (Files->Import->Bio Formats) created in Imaris format (*.ims) and I was getting I/O error when trying to open multi-channel image. It seems to be a problem with metadata block being too big to open by NetcdfFile.open() method. I use the latest Bio-Formats plugin (v5.1.10) which uses netcdf-4.3.19.jar to open Imaris files. When I updated the netcdf library in Fiji\jars folder to the latest version (netcdfAll-4.6.5.jar) the problem with opening the Imaris files seems to be fixed. Would be possible to update netcdf library in the next Fiji release to fix this problem?

I also attached the ims file that causing the I/O error in Fiji.

Many Thanks,
