There are a few drawbacks:
NOTE:
The plugin may be not compatible with other programs. To prevent problems:
Something similar can be done for the commandline version xrit2pic_cmd.exe
set HDF5_PLUGIN_PATH=\tools\alblas
xrit2pic.exe
Info gui
Unfortunately the combination 'gui' and 'mtg decompression' gives some problems in my environment.
As a temporary(?) work-around the gui/basic processsing is split into 2 programs:
The only program to deal with is the gui.
If decompression of MTG-data is needed then the gui will execute mtg_hdf_ext,
and the decompressed data will be read into the gui.
This is a bit strange; no more than 1,3G is needed, but program crashes with 1G,
where for 32-bits OS more than 2G should be possible.
A "solution" is to lower the generated resolution:
New (2025.3a,b)
MTG: Mixed FDHSI (16 channels) and HRFI (4 channels) possible, for composites. With -src2 option you can define a second source directory, e.g.:
Or: in Linux you can easily link all files in 2 directories to one third directory:
NOTE:
With hdf5 it is possible to lower the resolution (this is a feature in hdf5). But overlays will not all work.
If an overlay doesn't work then check:
If no xrit2pic.ini is available then everything is default and hdf.image_maxsize=0 already.
set 'Max. picture size' to 0
hdf.image_maxsize=<some number>
Change to:
hdf.image_maxsize=0
Step by step usage xrit2pic in command shell

Prepare
Note: You can still add the -src/-dest options, e.g. in a batch file, they will override the saved settings.
Generate single channel file
If no filters are added xrit2pic will translate all present files.
The -test option shows what would be generated, without actual generation.
Add channel filter, e.g.:
Using preferences '/home/ralblas/xrit2pic.ini'...
