Title: Dng v1.7 embedded preview
Post by: berliner_ffm on February 20, 2024, 10:41:53 AM
Hi,

According to Adobe,large  previews in the latest dng version aren't embedded as jpg anymore but as jxl. However if I am trying to extract to extract previews with exif tool only a very small jpg is returned. Is there any way to extract the embedded large jxl (preferably as jpg)?

Thanks for your help!

Can you send me a sample DNG containing a JXL like this?  My email is philharvey66 at gmail.com

Exiftool only deals with metadata.  It can extract the JXL, but can't convert it into a jpeg.

You can use this command to see all the preview images and see if there is a full size jpeg embedded as well
exiftool -Preview:all file.dng

Hi Phil,

I just send you an email.
@Stargeek: understood, that no conversion is possible. However -Preview:all does not return any full size preview, only a very small jpg (256px wide).

I hope there is a way to get at least a readable file out of the dng...

Thanks for your effort!

I got the sample, thanks.  ExifTool 12.78 will have the ability to extract two JXL previews from the file you sent (1024x578 and 8236x4652 pixels) with the tag name PreviewJXL.

Thanks for new new release. The extraction of jxl-previews works beautifully!!
