[Gdal-dev] PCI .pix: only reading 1 band

[Matt Wilkie]

Hi,

In trying to do some stuff today I noticed that the gdal utilities are 
only reading a single band of PCI .pix images. Is this normal? Has it 
always been this way? I think I remember using gdal before on these but, 
as I've publicly proven here in the past my memory is not so reliable... ;-)

GDAL 1.5dev, FWTools 1.4.2, released 2007/11/05

Here is gdalinfo output for a 6 channel .pix:
