[ome-users] Bioformats only imports parts of .nd2 file

Hi Ann-Lena,

What is the dimension size you are seeing when you open the file with Bio-Formats?

Does the same behaviour occur with and without the ND2 chunk map option selected?
This can be set in: Plugins > Bio-Formats > Bio-Formats Plugins Configuration > Formats > Nikon ND2 > Chunkmap

With Thanks,
David Gault

Hi Romain,

thank you for your quick reply!

As you can see in the attached screenshot, there should be enough RAM available for ImageJ.

I tried using the virtual stack option (Plugins -> Bio-Formats -> Bio-Formats Importer, ticked the box 'Use virtual stack' in the dialog box), but the same problem occurs.

Best regards,

Anna-Lena

Hi Anna-Lena,

ImageJ only indicates 2GB but does not respond with an error message
How much RAM have you set for your ImageJ  (EDIT > Options > Memory & Threads) ?
If you want to open the whole 7 Gb file, it should be (at least) more than 8 GB even 12GB (if you computer can offered it)

Alternatively, you could use the virtual stack option, just to verify if bio-formats can read all the slice.

Best,

Romain

Hi everyone,

using the NIS Elements software we recorded stacks of images (time lapse, interval: 100ms, duration: 2 min, Loops: 1201; 1 position, 1
channel) which resulted in .nd2-files bigger than 7GB.

Bioformats 5.9.1 does not open the complete stack, there are obviously images missing from the end of the stack (NIS Elements still opens the whole time lapse). Even though the files are bigger than 7GB, ImageJ only indicates 2GB but does not respond with an error message (screenshots in appendix). There do not seem to be problems with files smaller than 2GB.

I am working with Windows 10, ImageJ 1.52e and Java 1.8.0_66 (64-bit).

Thank you for your help!

Best regards,

Anna-Lena
