[gdal-dev] GDAL 1.8.0 and MrSid "no-data" values

[Kirk McKelvey]

Is this with MG3 or MG4 files?  MG4 uses an alpha channel instead of nodata, so what you describe would be expected in that case.

Hi,

I just updated to 1.8.0 from 1.7, using the MrSid DSDK 8.0.

In order to handle transparency, i have until now used the metadata values from "IMAGE__NO_DATA_VALUE",
and simply masked away pixels.

After upgrading, the IMAGE__NO_DATA_VALUE yields nothing, neither is it listed when using gdalinfo.

The band->GetNoDataValue() doesn't give me any hints either.

Should I handle this in a different way ?
