Check out the [FMTraining.tv](https://fmtraining.tv/) website. Richard Carlton and his team do a [daily free live stream](https://fmtraining.tv/#LIVE) about FileMaker to watch.

A few days ago Christian Schmitz from Monkeybread Software joined a live episode to talk a bit about the [MBS FileMaker Plugin](https://www.monkeybreadsoftware.com/filemaker/). Watch it on [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ND-fEkVnPSI).

We check out the image functions in [MBS FileMaker Plugin](https://www.monkeybreadsoftware.com/filemaker/) like [Container.ReadImage](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/ContainerReadImage.shtml) and [Container.ReadImageFile](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/ContainerReadImageFile.shtml) to convert HEIC/HEIF images to PNG, then use [GraphicsMagick](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/component_GraphicsMagick.shtml) functions to check if we can read it. And we came up with the idea of [Container.IdentifyData](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/ContainerIdentifyData.shtml) to tell you what really is a container. Sometimes you have an image declared to be JPEG, but really is a PNG, a HEIF or even a word document since someone put the wrong file extension to the name.
