Reader for vtk series .json metafile

ParaView Support
1

Hey, I’m having problems loading a vtk series in paraview.

My meta file frame.vtk.series looks like this:

{
  "file-series-version" : "1.0",
  "files" : [
    { "name" : "frame_0.vtk", "time" : 0.0 },
    { "name" : "frame_1.vtk", "time" : 1.5 },
    { "name" : "frame_2.vtk", "time" : 2.3 },
    { "name" : "frame_3.vtk", "time" : 3.8 },
    { "name" : "frame_4.vtk", "time" : 4.0 }
  ]
}

I can open the files individually without any problem. But when I try to open the jason file I get asked for a reader. In the popup list I can’t find a vtk Reader.
Help is very much appreciated!!

name your file file.vtk.series

Hello Mathieu, thank you for your reply. I changed the jason file name to file.vtk.series but I still get asked to select a reader.

I uploaded only 4 examplary frame_ files since the limit of files to be uploaded is 5

file.vtk.series.json (294 Bytes)
frame_0.vtk (328 Bytes)
frame_1.vtk (326 Bytes)
frame_2.vtk (320 Bytes)
frame_3.vtk (321 Bytes)

As I said, name your file file.vtk.series not file.vtk.series.json.

file.vtk.series (296 Bytes)

Thank you so much! I thought it still has to be a .json file. Everything works fine now
