Yes. Software developers can write their own WIC-enabled codecs and FastPictureViewer Professional automatically recognize and use the new formats as they are added to the system. Moreover, your formats will get full platform support on Windows Vista and Windows 7 (thumbnails in Windows Explorer, browsing/viewing/editing from Windows Photo Gallery etc) so it’s really worth the effort. Codecs ships separately and must be downloaded and installed from their respective supplier’s websites by the end-users. Programming information needed for developing WIC-enabled codecs is available on the MSDN website. We developped about 13 WIC codec so far and also offer custom codec developement services, contact us wit your project idea!
