[Qgis-user] MrSID on QGIS 2.6.,1, Mac OSK 10.10.1

[Dave Peterson]

I need to be able to display MrSID files made available by the state GIS department.  I had them running on QGIS 1.8, OSX 10.6.8, but I’m not sure what I did back then.  Have searched the Web as best I can and haven’t found any instructions for current QGIS with a current OS.  Can anyone help?

Seems to me at one point I saw some directions for getting 1.4 to read MrSID, but I can’t find them.  I’m doing GIS volunteer work for Mass Audubon Society, and a lot of their raster stuff is MrSID.  (They use ArcGIS; I can’t afford it.)
