Build Status

STATUS

This project can't move forward. The initial ambition was to replace the inefficiencies of the original Bio-Formats CZI reader. Unfortunately, the OME team maintains exclusive access to CZI files that only they can test. Coupled with the burden of integrating a major rewrite, the PR I had hoped would be merged will never be merged (https://github.com/ome/bioformats/pull/4092). So instead of being part of the solution and making a contribution to the open-source community, this extra reader adds—yet again—more complexity to the problem.

That's a disgrace.

Zeiss Quick start CZI Reader

This reader can be used starting from Bio-Formats version 7.1.0 and above.

Quick start Bio-Formats CZI reader

A revamped version of the original ZeissCZIReader which parses faster the metadata. This is critical to open multi-TB files in Fiji in a reasonable amount of time.

This new reader is tested against a list of publicly available CZI files.

For more information see: - the original issue - a draft PR on Bio-Formats - go to the compare folder of this repository to see how this readers differs from the bio-formats reader for a set of publicly available czi files

To use this reader instead of the original one, you will need to activate the Fiji update site Zeiss Quick Start Reader and by enabling the Zeiss(CZI) Quick Start reader in the Bio-Formats plugins configuration.

Special thanks to Zeiss for opening its file format and allowing open source software to improve!
