Is there any ECW writer license limits for Microstation? Is it 500MB, 1Gpix or 1000Gpix?
Maybe it is written in this article but can't open it.
Hi Oto
When saving to ECW you have 4 levels of compression (from high to minimum loss) available, but I found no information on the possible output file size limit (I'm referring to CONNECT Edition). You do have input file size limit of 10 GB when saving to ECW though, see more here:

Thanks so it seems to be based on size, will check. Somehow missed that notice.
If I have ECW SDK can these limits lifted similar to GDAL options?
ECW_ENCODE_KEY=key: (v4.x SDK or higher) Provide the OEM encoding key to unlock encoding capability up to the licensed gigapixel limit. The key is approximately 129 hex digits long. The Company and Key must match and must be re-generated with each minor release of the SDK. It may also be provided globally as a configuration option.
ECW_ENCODE_COMPANY=name: (v4.x SDK or higher) Provide the name of the company in the issued OEM key (see ECW_ENCODE_KEY). The Company and Key must match and must be re-generated with each minor release of the SDK. It may also be provided globally as a configuration option.
BTW doesn't seem that Microstation/Descartes can even handle 10GB conversion as it never finishes conversion.
