About the PIX format
PIX — Alias/Wavefront RLE Image
PIX is a simple run-length encoded image format used by Alias/Wavefront (now Autodesk) tools, including Maya and early versions of Alias Studio. It stores RLE-compressed RGB images and is encountered when working with legacy 3D rendering and animation output.
Common uses
- Legacy Maya and Alias Studio render output
- Converting old 3D animation frame sequences
- VFX and 3D animation archive recovery
- Historical Alias/Wavefront workflow images
About the HDR format
HDR — Radiance RGBE High Dynamic Range
HDR (Radiance .hdr) is a high dynamic range image format developed for the Radiance rendering system. It stores luminance information far beyond standard 8-bit images using a shared-exponent encoding, making it the standard for HDR environment maps in 3D rendering.
Common uses
- 3D rendering environment maps (IBL)
- HDR panorama photography storage
- VFX and CGI lighting reference images
- Tone mapping source images
