QGIS 2.14.1 opened .ECW files simply via the open raster menu, without any problems. In 2.14.3, the entire ERDAS Compressed Wavelets option has disappeared from the file type drop down, and QGIS returns an error if opening an .ECW is attempted.
How do I open a .ECW file now, in 2.14.3? Have the capabilities been removed or do I need to follow a new technique?
Answer
It turns out when using the OSGEO4W installer, the ECW package is not automatically installed with the QGIS desktop software. It can be found separately under the Lib menu.
I am new to using the OSGEO4W installer and this was not obvious to me.
