I have never seen anything about geometry accepting offset in bytes. Where did you see that? Offset is in pixels according to https://imagemagick.org/script/command- ... p#geometry

We'll add a 565 coder within a day or two:

Code: Select all

magick -size 800x600 "RGB565:Loading Default.2rawdata" crest.png

"-evaluate LeftShift" and "-evaluate RightShift" implement the C operators "<<" and ">>". See http://www.gnu.org/software/gnu-c-manua ... t-Shifting . These shift, they do not rotate unless the top bit was 1 ("signed negative value"). So we generally need "-evaluate And" to mask the bits.

The evaluates can be simplified in a number of ways, such as:

Code: Select all

magick ^
  -size 800x600 -depth 16 ^
  "GRAY:Loading Default.2rawdata" ^
  ( -clone 0 -evaluate And 63488 ) ^
  ( -clone 0 -evaluate And 2016 -evaluate LeftShift 5 ) ^
  ( -clone 0 -evaluate And 31 -evaluate LeftShift 11 ) ^
  -delete 0 ^
  -combine ^

Note that 63488 is binary 11111000 00000000, and 2016 is binary 00000111 11100000.

I've read about it on this pages:

There where a few more but I did not find them again.

Thank you very much.

Thank you for the explanation and the simple version.

About that problem with the tailing 2400bytes could that be avoided with some kind of option/switch or does ImageMagick needs to be modifyed to do that?

You can use head and tail for that:

Code: Select all

cat "Loading Default.frm16" |head -c -2400 |tail -c +37 |magick ^
  -size 800x600 -depth 16 GRAY:- ^
  ( -clone 0 -evaluate And 63488 ) ^
  ( -clone 0 -evaluate And 2016 -evaluate LeftShift 5 ) ^
  ( -clone 0 -evaluate And 31 -evaluate LeftShift 11 ) ^
  -delete 0 ^
  -combine ^

Thanks for the info, but shouldn't ImageMagick be able to do this by itself? Can I ask for this feature to be added maybe right here or should I make a new post?

You can always ask, in this thread or in the "Developers" subforum.
