Hello, Suspected Bug: I think I've found a bug when loading raw RGB565 data. If you load it on a big-endian machine, it produces garbled output. If you load it on a little-endian machine it works fine. If you swap the bytes in the file by hand, it appears to work fine. The bug is located in several places in <source-root>/plugins/common/file-raw.c.
Proposed Fix: I think what we need is two modes - RGB565-LittleEndian(enum mode: RAW_RGB565LE), and RGB565-BigEndian(enum mode: RAW_RGB565BE). This would of course, require another menu entry and possibly a translated string. What I would like to do about it: If this sounds good to the group, I'll happily cook up the required patches, and test images. Why it affects me: As an embedded developer, sometimes we use screens that are the opposite endianness of the display. For newer ARM devices with rev16 support, this isn't much of an issue, but I still like to use GIMP to check our bitmap packer and sometimes our firmware images. You guys are awesome: Thank you for writing GIMP. -Richard Allen
