Support for RAW formats

[vishnukvmd]

We should support previews for the following raw file formats on all platforms.

• NEF
• RAF
• DNG
• TIFF

Currently transcoding is only supported on Mac. What we should do is generate a high-res preview at the time of upload that can be rendered on all platforms (mobile included).

Sample images available @ https://albums.ente.io/?t=4edQY8Lv#JBdFEj4oYbYZgerNAsnN2qVyBS174PvZ39iUtpJYKNWQ

.ORF for Olympus cameras and .RW2 for Panasonic as well

[vishnukvmd]

@vfxninjaeditor would you happen to have any sample images you could help us out with?

Just a single sample but I have loads (all from the same camera though) if you need, let me know.

Any news on this feature?

Also need CR2 and CR3

Would be great to have thumbnails and high res previews of raw images. I'm not a node dev, but Libraw seems capable of handling the raw files, and with a cpp wrapper could be called from ts.

Support for RAW formats would indeed make Ente even more awesome (in my case, mostly NEF)! 🤩

Personally, a big personal barrier to using ente photos is I like to take RAW (DNG) photos along with my JPGs on my Pixel 6, and when I try to add my library to ente there's a bunch of duplicates of the same photo in multiple formats. I like what Google Photos does, where it groups multiple pictures from the same shot under one image, including RAW, JPG, and crops. But just hiding the DNGs would also be good. I don't really use them on my phone, they're just nice to have, especially if I want to edit it in a proper program.

HEIC and DNG preview support?

[Zvenor]

.ARW would be great also!

No love for .CR2 yet, even though I use it very less. But many pictures with .CR2 is just black in the app. Would love to see it being added to the list.

DNGs seems to be hit and miss for me, sometimes it generates the thumbnail, sometimes it stays black.

CR2 support would be nice. I shoot a lot in RAW, and Ente shows my photos in the app all black without a thumbnail.

Hi there! Just checking in to see if there are any updates on the CR2 and CR3 RAW support. Would love to hear any news!
