Working with HMT files

[burntb4 Profile Private messageWebsiteYIM]

I am working on a show for a family member and they have sent me cd's with the pics i need. However,one of the cd's has all the files listed as E:\HIGHMAT\IMAGE. What the heck are HMT files and how to i open them. When I select a pic from the batch it opens as a very tiny thumbnail.?????

A quick search brought the impression that it's a format no longer used or supported, but as I said, it was a quick search. You might be out of luck with those pictures from the little I read, but maybe someone here knows a little more about it.

Never heard of it but here's some info:

HighMAT is a way for media formats like JPG, MP3, WMA, WMV and MPEG-4 to be organized and published on a CD. DVD support is planned. As of June 2007: Microsoft has discontinued development on the HighMAT technology. Therefore, the HighMAT extension to the Microsoft Windows XP CD Writing Wizard is no longer offered by using Windows Update.

This link is for a download of a highmat viewer, I have never done this but would think that there would be a way with this viewer to save each image in the viewr and save as a different file type like JPG or something.
