Hello,

I have some data contained in a hdf5 file and I want to visualize it in Paraview. It’s a 1.4 GB dataset so I am using remote rendering.  
First I tried it using xmdf but I got the error:

> ERROR: In vtkXdmfHeavyData.cxx, line 1224  
> vtkXdmfReader (0x2285dd0): Failed to read attribute data
> 
> Warning: In vtkSMPVRepresentationProxy.cxx, line 872  
> vtkSMPVRepresentationProxy (0000011E29D16BC0): Failed to determine the LookupTable being used.

I also tried getting the data into a nrrd file, but I got the

> invalid texture dimensions error

I wonder if you could take a look at the dataset and let me know what I am doing wrong or better strategies to load it.

here’s the link to the [dataset](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1TwWJSOR-QHh6le784MNKrENSJ5MkDqIR?usp=sharing)

Thanks for the help
