# Dectris provides the ''Neggia'' library ([https://github.com/dectris/neggia source],[https://www.dectris.com/support/downloads/sign-in binary]) for native reading of HDF5 files, which can be loaded into XDS at runtime using the <code>[[LIB]]=</code> [http://xds.mpimf-heidelberg.mpg.de/html_doc/xds_parameters.html#LIB= keyword]. With this library (which can also be found at https://{{SERVERNAME}}/pub/linux_bin for Linux, and at https://{{SERVERNAME}}/pub/mac_bin for MacOS), no conversion to CBF or otherwise is necessary. It is therefore just as fast and efficient to read HDF5 files as any other file format. At Diamond Light Source, a different HDF5 format was developed, and this requires the [https://github.com/DiamondLightSource/durin/releases/latest ''Durin'' plugin]. The latter can also read the HDF5 files written by the Dectris software. | # Dectris provides the ''Neggia'' library ([https://github.com/dectris/neggia source],[https://www.dectris.com/support/downloads/sign-in binary]) for native reading of HDF5 files, which can be loaded into XDS at runtime using the <code>[[LIB]]=</code> [http://xds.mpimf-heidelberg.mpg.de/html_doc/xds_parameters.html#LIB= keyword].
