Conversion 422 files to picture?

[tobifu]

Hi!
Is there any way to convert the .422-files to any picture format?
I already searched the web and this forum, but all information I can find is outdated und has dead links.
Thanks!
Tobias

May I ask what you are talking about?
Is there any chance you are using "stable" v2.3 which is nowadays unsupported?
You may want to use https://archive.org to dive into broken links.

Hi!
I used magic lantern (ver 2.3.60D.111) in silent mode and got .422-files, which I cannot open or convert.
Found this in the forum:
https://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=3310.25
But I can't find the tool 422toimage.exe

Move to a maintained build and use DNG or MLV instead.

Or you can find source code on archive.org and compile it on your own.

Okay, already updated Magic Lantern.

But what about the existing files? No way to open them?
To be honest: I've got no idea how to compile a source code to do this.... 

Or you can find source code on archive.org and compile it on your own.

422toimage.exe

422ToImage 1.9.2

You should add your .422 files resolution in "resolutions.xml" if it's not there by default, otherwise 422ToImage would show blank result.

Thanks a lot, theBilalFakhouri! 
But the program doesn't start.
I got the message:
"Error while reading 'resolutions.xml'. Replace this file with original. Program will exit now"

[Walter Schulz]

Show content of your resolutions.xml file.

As it was in the zip. I didn't change anything:

You should add your .422 files resolution in "resolutions.xml" if it's not there by default, otherwise 422ToImage would show blank result.

So: Is your resolution included or not?

[tobifu]

Resolution is included.

But as I mentioned: the program doesn't even start. I only get this error-message.

[theBilalFakhouri]

But the program doesn't start.
I got the message:
"Error while reading 'resolutions.xml'. Replace this file with original. Program will exit now"

It does work here without your mentioned issue.

Have your read the included "readme.txt"?
You might need to install the mentioned software.

Which Windows you are using?

[tobifu]

Okay, after all I got the program to convert the files. Yeah!

But to use 422toimage I have to install Enblend/Enfuse!?
And to install this I need to install GNU Make?!
And so on and on...??

Let's quit it here - that's all much to complicated and annoying.

Thanks to you all for your help and support.

[Walter Schulz]

Look into bin directory to find compiled binaries.

And to install this I need to install GNU Make?!

Readmes are intended to be read with care. "To build" you need GNU. But you don't have to because of first sentence.
