Convert to J2C from DPX

[churchwa]

I am trying to batch convert DPX>J2C and am having a few issues.

The main one being that IM keeps making the J2C file using the JP2 codec. i.e. it produces a file called test.j2c but when you try and open it the software says this is a JP2 file and not a J2C.

How can a force IM to convert to a J2C file?

Assuming you are using a more current version of IM and openjpeg 2.1 or higher in your IM compile, then try prefacing your output with J2C:output.j2c

Thanks for the advice although I still get the same result using J2C:file.j2c

As a noob, can I ask. Having installed the latest version of IM can I assume the latest openjpeg is installed as well? (Using windows)

CMD gives me the following message after converting the file (regardless if I use the prefix or not):
convert: Deprecated fields cp_cinema or cp_rsiz are used
Please consider using only the rsiz field
See openjpeg.h documentation for more details
`OpenJP2' @ warning/jp2.c/JP2WarningHandler/236.

Sorry I do not know about that.

What do you get from

Code: Select all

convert -version

Does it include JP2?

What version of openjpeg do you have on your system? You can find that from

Code: Select all

convert -list format

Perhaps it is a limitation of Imagick. Does it work fine using the command line in a terminal or PHP exec() command?

Is there really a difference? Do you know of openjpeg supports j2c?

[churchwa]

So convert -version gives:
Version: ImageMagick 7.0.5-0 Q16 x64 2017-02-20 http://www.imagemagick.org

And J2C is in the list of formats with the module being JP2. Seems I have version 2.1.2 of openjpeg.

I have tried both convert and magick as convert is now deprecated, and get the same output.

I am running it all from command line.

We are feeding in approx 50meg 4K files and the subsequent j2c files are only 1.2meg.
Does this sound right, seems very small.

I have done -quality 0 for lossless and the resolution comes out at 4k which is also correct.

Sorry, I do not know the difference between JP2 and J2C. I could not find on Google any document that explained the difference other than suffix.
