OK, I get the same thing.

Thanks for this info.  Using it allowed me to create the ADDE dataset in
McIDAS-X, and the resulting IMGLIST output matches what you sent along.

I had read that, but I didn't recall it.  Thanks for the reminder.

Here are the weird things that I found:

- the IMGLIST output suggests that the image has only one band

  OK, no worries.

- an IMGDISP, however, complains that BAND= needs to be specified for
  a multi-banded image:

IMGLIST LRIT/MET7 FORM=ALL
Image file directory listing for:LRIT/MET7
 Pos Satellite/         Date       Time      Center      Res (km)   Image_Size
     sensor                                 Lat  Lon    Lat   Lon
 --- -------------  ------------  --------  ---- ----  ----- ----- ------------
   1  METEOSAT7     15 APR 16106  15:00:00     0  -57
   Band: 8    11.5 um IR Surface/Cloud-top Temp         4.52  4.49  2500 x 2500
     proj:    0 created: 2016106 150000  memo: FSD data from XRIT
     type:MSAT     cal type:RAW
     offsets:  data=     832 navigation=  256 calibration=  768 auxiliary=    0
     doc length:   0   cal length:   0   lev length:   0 PREFIX=   0
     valcod:          0 zcor:  0 avg-smp: A
     start yyddd: 2016106  start time:150000  start scan:    0
     lcor:    2  ecor:     2  bytes per pixel: 1  ss: 58
     Resolution Factors (base=1):   Line=    2.0   Element=    2.0
IMGLIST: done
 
IMGDISP LRIT/MET7
IMGDISP: Band required for multi-banded image
IMGDISP: done
IMGDISP failed, RC=2

These contradictory results might help pinpoint where the serving
problem likes if, in fact, the problem is on the serving side and
not in the data itself.

Also:

IMGDISP LRIT/MET7 BAND=8
Beginning Image Data transfer, bytes= 1130592
IMGDISP: loaded frame  21
IMGDISP: done

results in a blank display, just as you reported originally.

Now the question is why there is a discrepancy in IMGLIST's and
IMGDISP's interpretation of the bandedness of the image, and if
this discrepancy is somehow related to the blank display from
IMGDISP.  This will take a bit of code diving to figure out...

Cheers,

Tom
