Hi The drop down list of formats in Writer node shows separate Writer plugins like: abcWriter.so, xyzWriter.so, blaWriter.so etc. Additionally in Writer::Description you must declared that your plugin is able to write out such a format. If you have for instance "xyzWriter" and you place many different extensions in Writer::Description, you need to force Nuke to load your plugin by use of xyz prefix like 'xyz://Home/Desktop/yourfiletowrite.bla'; extension is not sufficient when Nuke load it first time. If you need to have your custom format in file_type dropdown knob, you need to create separate plugin for each such a format instead of list of many extensions in a Writer::Description.
