HDRI to RIFF Conversion: FAQ
What are HDRI files?
SilverFast’s 64-bit HDRi RAW file is a TIFF that preserves a full 16-bit-per-channel RGB scan plus a separate 16-bit infra-red channel, giving 64 bits per pixel. The visible data stays completely unprocessed—no sharpening, gamma, or colour tweaks—while the IR map lets SilverFast’s iSRD (or compatible tools) later remove dust and scratches non-destructively, making it an ideal “digital negative” for archival film workflows.
What are RIFF files?
The Resource Interchange File Format RIFF is a structured multimedia container format developed through a collaboration between Microsoft and IBM in 1991. As an adaptation of the Electronic Arts Interchange File Format (IFF), RIFF implements a tagged chunk architecture where each data segment contains a 4-character identifier, 32-bit size field, and payload data. This design enables hierarchical organization of heterogeneous multimedia streams while maintaining platform-independent data representation through strict little-endian byte ordering.
