ImageJ has major limitations writing to modern video formats such as H264 using the H264 codec and convenient wrappers (.MOV. Instead, it may be easier to use plugins under ImageJ to import QuickTime movies as virtual stacks using Ffmpeg, which will work on 64-bit operating systems and under newer, 64-bit versions of ImageJ. I (Jeff) have successfully tested Mojave with VMWare Fusion.

It is possible to use virtualization software to run OS X Mojave or earlier, to retain support for QTJ. Due to its 32-bit architecture, it will not work under 64-bit only operating systems like OS X Catalina. QuickTime for Java (QTJ) has been deprecated for many years by Apple. Hyperstack Projector plugin (experimental).FFmpeg-based plugins and macros for ImageJ.Please recognize that I am a professor, and program in my "spare" time, so support for these plugins is limited and bound to be sporadic.Ĭlick on the links below to go to various sections of this page. The advantage of this software suite is that it is free(!), and that it allows 4d datasets to be viewed without special, proprietary software. I (Jeff) have developed plugins that run within the public domain program, ImageJ, to acquire, process, and play back 4d microscopy data as an outgrowth of our own imaging needs.
