What is a .ARI file?

An ARI file is a type of file that is created by ARRI digital video cameras, such as the ALEXA MINI and AMIRA. These files are used to store a single still image frame from a video sequence. The image is saved in the ARRIRAW format, which means it is uncompressed and retains all the original image data as captured by the camera's sensor. This format is beneficial for professionals in film and video production who require high-quality images for editing and post-production.

To open an ARI file, you can use several different programs depending on your operating system and needs: 1. **ARRIRAW Converter** - This is a specialized tool provided by ARRI for handling ARRIRAW files. It allows users to convert ARI files into other formats that are easier to use in various video editing software.

2. **File Viewer Plus** - Available from the Microsoft Store, this program can open and display ARI files among many other file types.

3. **Microsoft Photos** - Included with Windows, this app can open ARI files for viewing, though its capabilities in terms of editing or converting raw formats might be limited compared to more specialized software.

4. **Adobe SpeedGrade** - Although this program has been discontinued, it was previously used for color grading and could handle ARI files. Users who still have access to this software might be able to use it for ARI files.

5. **Apple Final Cut Pro with Glue Tools Cineon/DPX Pro plugin** - For Mac users, Final Cut Pro can be enhanced with the Glue Tools plugin to work with ARI files, providing powerful editing capabilities.

Each of these programs offers different features, so the choice of which one to use will depend on what you need to do with the ARI file, such as viewing, editing, or converting to another format.
