<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:12.0pt'>it took me quite a while to find out why I couldn't
use ECW, JP2 and MrSID images with OSGEO4W-installed QGis on Windows. According
to the download page support for these formats is included. For MrSID and
MrSid-JP2000 it appeared that I needed to manually add the Gdal-16 MrSid-plugin
(through the advanced install - libs section). From there I also added the
Gdal-16 ECW plugin, but I still wasn't able to load these images into QGis. In
the QGis user archives (september 2009) I found a topic on this, from which I
learned that I needed 4 Erdas SDK libraries and put them in the windows system
32 directory. At last I was able to do what I had been done with
standalone-installed QGis right from the start: load my ECW and SID-files.<br>
So my question is: is it possible to give a somewhat more comprehensive
explanation on this subject on the install page?<br>
