ok, i'm testing the two seperate commands from the command line before i go any further :
Code: Select all
D:\PROGRA~2\IMAGEM~1.6-Q\stream -map rgb -storage-type char -extract 4200x5880+0+0 "D:\Thumbnails\DEMO\16_26-_19_log_LOG_COMP_233938443.tif[0]" "D:\Thumbnails\DEMO\image.miff"
works fine, however the following doesn't seem to work :
Code: Select all
D:\PROGRA~2\IMAGEM~1.6-Q\convert "D:\Thumbnails\DEMO\image.miff" -density 300 -size 4200x5880 -depth 8 rgb:- "D:\Thumbnails\DEMO\16_26-_19_log_LOG_COMP_233938443_full.jpg"
any ideas ?

This second command does not make sense to me, if you can display the image.miff from the first command.
-size does nothing as the size is already in the miff file. Do you want to resize it?
Likewise, remove rgb:- in the second command. That is still trying to read something from standard in and there is nothing there.
Again this is just a guess on my part as I really do not understand the stream command in your first line. I assume that you tell stream how big an image to read in from raw rgb data. From there the miff output contains the proper information

ok, i've stripped everything back as follows :
Code: Select all
D:\PROGRA~2\IMAGEM~1.6-Q\convert "D:\Thumbnails\DEMO\image.miff" "D:\Thumbnails\DEMO\16_26-_19_log_LOG_COMP_233938443_full.jpg"
and get the following error :
Improper Image Header, no images defined

OK. Sorry I do not know what to tell you. You probably need to hear back from Anthony or Magick as I really don't know stream at all.
Otherwise, see

I believe "stream" only outputs RAW data only.
I don't really use it much, but that was my understanding.

So then one would have to save the result of the stream stream as image.rgb. Then read image.rgb in for the second command giving its -size specification.

That is my understanding. The actual raw format and order can be specified in stream using its 'special' -format option.
I don't know much more than that though.
