RIFF to SGI Conversion: FAQ
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.
What are SGI files?
SGI (Silicon Graphics Image) is a raster image format associated with Silicon Graphics workstations. It is a bitmap file that can store black-and-white, gray-scale and color images, and may also contain color maps and alpha channels. SGI files are sometimes referred to as RGBs and can either use no image compression or RLE compression. Alternative extensions for the SGI format are BW, RGB and RGBA.
