I just notice that all my snapshots from the past 3 weeks are all in .j2c format. Did i accidentally check/uncheck something in the setting to cause this? Anyone know how to fix it?
i am using viewer 1.19.0.5
added - anyone know how to open these files or a converter i can download to use them?

Hmm, the only way I can get snapshots to save in a file other then .bmp is by going to the advanced menu and checking compress snapshots to disc.
My Paint Shop Pro will open that format, but Gimp does not. I would imagine Photoshop would open it too. _____________________

sorry i dont know the magic button to push but your not the only one
but for converting http://www.ivanview.com/j2c-converter.html that will do a batch conversion, meaning you can take all your images at once, click a button and be done with it |

I think you have Advanced / Compress Snapshots To Disk turned on.
The free bitmap program Irfanview should open them. It will ask if you want to rename the extension to jp2. _____________________

There's a free plugin to read j2k (=j2c) from fnord.
http://www.fnordware.com/j2k/ It says it works with photoshop 5.5... hope it works with cs2 too. I know i'm using the (free) leadtools plugin for CS3 mysels http://leadtools.com/Utilities/PSPlugIn/PhotoShop_plug-in.htm I'm not sure if they still have cs2 compatibility though. My preference is leadtools, as i'm using a lot of their tools professionally too. (Automated image processing etc.) _____________________

Yup and jpeg2000 also saves alot of disk space... when you don't need full quality because of picture editing (you can also control the compression factor via debug settings).
