    If they make a Codec for this format in Windows then it is likely you can get support that way. Likewise if there is a 'Quicklook' support for Apple we may be able to use that, follow up with the manufacture and have them contact us.

    The preview-image is in the first 100 Byte of the PLD-file header and it is a "normal" PNG- or JPEG.
    You can find a excample-file here http://www.pl32.com/forum3/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=2128
    Feel free to search for it and extract it 😉

    To get further support please contact the developer

    You can get Media Pro to catalogue non-standard file types by adding their extension details to a file called Custom.txt. See this recent post where .MTS video files could then be catalogued - - although too much credit is given to Phase One. This has actually been a feature since the original iView Media Pro days at least 8 years ago. You will need to add a new line to the file in the correct format, which is shown within the file.

    Whether you can synchronise meta-data or not back to these files is another thing.

    Adding a line for .pld files to Custom.txt won't automatically produce visible thumbnails and previews. The answer for that will depend on what operating system you have. If it's a Mac then it will only be possible if Quicktime supports this image format. If it's Windows then you will need a Codec for this format for the Windows Imaging Component (WIC) to use. That will be the responsibility of the PLD developers. They could contract this out to a third party. I use Fast Picture Viewer and the guy who writes that has developed a number of Codecs that he makes available for a small fee. I use it for .DNG and .ORF files and his Codec is far better than those from Adobe and Olympus. If there's a suitable market for PLD files - and I'd never heard of them before - he might develop a Codec. If this was done then you'd get to see thumbnails and previews in Explorer and other Windows applications.
