[gdal-dev] gdalbuildvrt does not support heterogenous band characteristics

Matt,

   Likely Quickbird_06m10.tif has more or less bands than the previous 
files, or band bit depth is different.   For example, don't try to 
include a 1 band 16-bit (e.g. gray scale) tiff in a VRT of 3 band, 8 
bits each (e.g. RGB color) tiffs.

   What does gdalinfo say about this file (and other files in the VRT)?

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser
