From d6c29aaf254bb26c8bb3451c18d2de59cf9e946f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Andrew Frahn <andrew@emmertex.com>
Date: Mon, 12 Oct 2026 04:18:59 +1100
Subject: [PATCH 1/2] LR-IMP-FORMATS: decode Minolta MRW (packed 12-bit and
 16-bit words, RGGB / GBRG)

The \0MRM block container: PRD sensor size, storage and Bayer cell; WBG
as-shot gains in cell order; TTW TIFF for Exif and orientation. Black 0,
white from the saturation plateau. 4 CC0 samples pinned in RAW_SAMPLES;
DiMAGE 7, 7Hi, A1, A2, A200 and Dynax / Maxxum 7D verified. Also fixes
clippy::chunks_exact_to_as_chunks in pipeline/spots.rs.

Sources: public prose description of the MRW layout (Dalibor Jelinek's
MRW notes) and own black-box analysis of the CC0 samples.

+//! Minolta / Konica Minolta MRW: a block container (see [`lightcraft_meta::mrw`]) around a 12-bit Bayer mosaic.
+//!
+//! Sources: the public prose description of the MRW layout (Dalibor Jelínek's MRW notes) and our own black-box
+//! analysis of the eight CC0 MRW samples on raw.pixls.us (DiMAGE 7, 7Hi, A1, A2, A200, Dynax / Maxxum / ALPHA-7
+//! Digital); every number below was measured on them.
+//!
+//! - `PRD` (24 bytes, big-endian): 8 ASCII version bytes, sensor rows and columns (`u16` each), image rows and
+//!   columns, data size (12 or 16 bits per stored sample), pixel size (12), storage method (`0x59` = 12-bit
+//!   packed: two samples in three bytes, most significant bits first; `0x52` = one 12-bit sample per big-endian
+//!   16-bit word), two unknown bytes and the Bayer layout as a `u16` (`1` = RGGB, `4` = GBRG). The sensor data
+//!   starts after the header and is exactly sensor rows x columns samples in every sample.
+//! - The sensor frame is 8 columns and 6 to 8 rows larger than the image size, but every edge holds picture (no
+//!   masked border), so the whole frame is the active area and the image size is the default crop.
+//! - Black is 0: the darkest samples are 0 in every packed file and 13..34 in the unpacked ones, with no offset
+//!   left to subtract. White is the saturation plateau where the frame has one (3964 on the A1, 3965 on a clipped
+//!   DiMAGE 7, 4020 on the A200, 4076 on the 7D), else 4095.
+//! - The layout code was checked against the embedded preview: with `1` the two greens are the equal (0,1) and
+//!   (1,0) positions; in the A200 (`4`) the greens are (0,0) and (1,1), and only red at (1,0) reproduces the
+//!   preview's red-dominated colour.
+//! - `WBG` (12 bytes): four scale bytes, then four big-endian `u16` coefficients in the order of the Bayer cell
+//!   read row by row (RGGB: R G G B, GBRG: G B R G). Red over green and blue over green are the as-shot gains;
+//!   applied to the raw channel means they reproduce the preview's colour balance within the colour matrix's
+//!   reach on all eight samples.
+//! - `TTW` is a TIFF with IFD0 (orientation), Exif and the maker note; the preview JPEG sits in it with its first
+//!   byte overwritten (see `preview::scan_for_jpeg`).

Compressed RAF sensor arrays verified on 13 Fujifilm bodies (`docs/raf-compression.md`). ILCE-7RM6 ARW6 12-bit codes verified on 8 CC0 files (FF and APS-C, both compression modes). Sony ILCE-7CR (61 MP): lossless compressed L and M and compressed ARW2 samples of one scene in the corpus (black level, default crop, as-shot gains, lossless vs compressed mosaic agreement, fitted camera look), and all nine public codings (also uncompressed, small and APS-C crop) decode and fit. Grow the CC0 corpus per model and test each sample decodes with plausible colour. Nikon CropArea and untagged-preview colour-space regression tests; private Z 8 crop verified; the Nikon D4, which records no CropArea, gets its image area and white level measured on 148 NEFs against the camera JPEG (optical-black stripes and magenta clipped highlights gone). |

An unedited raw's **grid thumbnail is that camera JPEG itself**, so no sensor decode is scheduled behind it (`Session::embedded_thumb_is_final`, `grid::skips_the_real_render`): drawing a 512 px thumbnail used to decode the whole raw — 45 s a photo at 1.2 MB/s, 8.3 GB for a 149-raw folder — and the queue it built delayed the render the user was waiting for; a cached render as stand-in, an edited photo and a raw without an embedded JPEG still render |

-ARW, NEF, RW2, RAF, CR3, CR2, PEF, SRW and ORF decoding supply sensor data and camera white-balance multipliers, but currently no measured camera colour matrix. Treating camera RGB as linear sRGB produces a dark, muted default rendering. The loader now estimates a file-local starting look from that file's embedded camera JPEG, only when a usable camera matrix is absent. All output pixels still come from the RAW sensor data; there is no JPEG replacement or uniform saturation boost.
