I need to be able to convert JPEG-XR images to JPG format, and have gotten this working through ImageMagick itself. However, I need to be able to do this from a python application, and have been looking at using Wand. Wand does not seem to properly use paths to JXR imagery.
with open(os.path.join(args.save_location, img_name[0], result[0]+".jxr"), "wb") as output_file:
output_file.write(result[1])
with Image(filename=os.path.join(args.save_location, img_name[0], result[0]+".jxr")) as original:
with original.convert('jpeg') as converted:
print(converted.format)
pass
The first part of this - creating output_file and writing result[1] (blob of JXR imagery from a SQLite database) - works fine. However, when I attempt to then open that newly-saved file as an image using Python and Wand, I get an error that ultimately suggests Wand is not looking in the correct location for the image:

As you can see at the very end, it seems to have attempted to run off to open a temporary file 'C:/Users/RPALIW~1/AppData/Local/Temp/magick-14988CnJoJDwMRL4'. The filename used at this point should be exactly the same as the filename used to save the imagery as a file just a few lines above, but Wand has substituted something else? This looks similar to the last issue I had with this in ImageMagick, which was fixed over the weekend (detailed here: http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=27027&p=119702#p119702).
Has anyone successfully gotten Wand to open JXR imagery as an Image in Python, and convert to another format? Am I doing something wrong here, or is the fault with ImageMagick or Wand?
