I still get LIBRAW_THUMBNAIL_UNKNOWN from master branch

I got the latest master branch, and when I decode the thumbnail for newer cameras such as Sony A73 and Fuji X-H1, thumbnail.tformat still returns LIBRAW_THUMBNAIL_UNKNOWN.

rawProcessor->unpack_thumb() does return LIBRAW_SUCCESS.

Despite getting LIBRAW_THUMBNAIL_UNKNOWN, I go ahead and treat it as LIBRAW_THUMBNAIL_JPEG and I was able to get the thumbnail (preview image) successfully.

I thought those newer cameras are supported in the master branch, so why am I still get LIBRAW_THUMBNAIL_UNKNOWN return code?

Pink/purple color cast on Sony A7III ARW file?

I'm using LibRaw 0.19.2.

I've this pink/purple color cast issue on just one ARW file taken with the Sony A7III. All the other files from the same camera so far looked fine.

But when I open this problematic file with FastRawViewer or other RAW converters, the colors look fine.

So why am I getting this color cast on this one file?

Reading a file that is just 8 bit Bayer pixels

I have a file from "fswebcam --dumpfile" that is just a stream of 8 bit pixel values. There is no other data in the file. Is it possible to read this into LibRaw and demosaic it into a file such as a TIFF or JPEG file? When I try to read the file in with imread(), it says that the file has an unsupported format.

Basically I want to be able to specify the XY size of the file and the pixel format so that LibRaw can read the file.

Thanks
Chris

order of operations (matrix, white balance etc)

Hello

I'm experimenting with converting raw (Fuji RAF) files and im struggling a little bit to understand the order of how operations are done.

My expectation would be:

dcraw_emu -4 -r 1 1 1 1 -o 0 (raw) -> Camera2rgb matrix -> white balance mult -> srgb = good picture!

However, this results in an overly saturated image with blue colours going into negative values

so I tried a few other combos:

libraw wide char format support on MSYS2

Dear all,
I'm developing a software that uses libraw. This software is multi-platform and is able to run on GNU/Linux, OS X, FreeBSD and Windows through MSYS2.
Indeed, libraw is available on MSYS2 and that makes things easy. However there's a small issue that is kind of annoying: I cannot use the function

libraw_open_wfile

as I would like to do. For example with libtiff i use TIFFOpenW.

Indeed, in libraw.h this line:

LibRaw 0.19 Crashing DigiKam6 on macOS

Hi,
I have an issue with LibRaw 0.19 on macOS. I'm using DigiKam 6beta which now includes LibRaw 0.19 and this is crashing while scanning RAW (NEF) images from a Nikon D5300 12bit.
This is not happening with LibRaw 0.18.11 in an earlier build of DigiKam6beta

How can I help to track this bug down and get it fixed?

kind regards
Benjamin
