Photogenics HDR into XSI

I see.  The funny thing is that the original HDR file worked just fine
and displayed properly in the clip properties.  Its only when you bring
it into Photogenics, edit it and save it out again.  I'll have to look
into it some more....probably something on the Photogenics side I missed.

I tried this and I get this error when converting from .hdr or .map
from Photogenics to .hdr:<br>
   <br>
   <b>type rgba not supported by hdr format, using default type rgbe</b><br>
   <br>
Do I need to use some variable in imf_copy to correct this?&nbsp; Exporting
to .ct and than back to .map or converting from .map to .map still
leaves a noicon image in the clip properties.<br>

Try using imf_copy to copy it back and forth
between .ct float and to .hdr.

I'm having problems exporting a modified HDRI image from
Photogenics to
XSI.  It works fine and renders ok but the image clip property in XSI
shows a noicon image instead.  Anyone have a fix for this?  Is there
something I need to setup in Photogenics?  Thanks.
