FLOGVIT.photosuite supports a wide range of image and video formats from all major camera manufacturers.
RAW Formats
| Format | Manufacturer | Extension |
|---|---|---|
| Canon RAW v3 | Canon | .cr3 |

| Format | Extension |
|---|---|
| MP4 | .mp4 |
| QuickTime | .mov |

RAW+JPEG Handling
When your camera shoots both RAW and JPEG simultaneously, FLOGVIT.photosuite detects file pairs with the same base filename and can treat them as a single unit. Configure this behavior in Settings → General:
- Show both — Display RAW and JPEG as separate files
- Combine — Show one entry per pair; choose which to display (RAW or JPEG)
- Hide JPEG — Only show the RAW file
XMP Sidecar Files
All metadata changes (ratings, flags, labels, crop, rotation, IPTC) are written to .xmp sidecar files. Original files are never modified. XMP sidecars are compatible with:
- Adobe Lightroom
- Capture One
- darktable
- Photo Mechanic
- Any software that reads XMP
For JPEG and DNG files, metadata can optionally be written directly into the file (configured in Settings → IPTC / XMP).
Audio Notes
Images with companion audio files (.wav or .mp3 with the same base filename) show an audio icon. Press A to play or stop the audio note. Audio playback stops automatically when you navigate to another image.
