    I'm confused ... it was working, with a zip sent to me by Cath,  Now, even with that I have issues!  I suspect this may be a 'local problem' crying

    And now I cannot open the duf file in WinRAR as it tells me is it in 'unknown format or corrupt'!

     The Syntax error - expected '{' or '[' actually has nothing to do with it the hdri loaded or not , the error shows always with all HDRI , your error is actually the .duf files not the HDRI files as from your logo looks like the .duf was not loaded completely

    TIP: When you using HDRI in iray the standard Camera lens setting is Focal Length: 36 mm and Frame Width: 36 mm  for all HDRI, the moment your focal length is higher you need to use DOF, all my HDRI was  shot with F/Stop 11 so that would be the setting for the DOF but of course can be changed if you want to get higher bokeh effect (blur), how higher the value of f/stop under DOF how less the effect of the blur (bokeh effect) 

    Iray don't have optical zoom when using HDRI so increasing your focal length to get the object closer will change the camera lens setting and without DOF it will look less natural and all you getting is just fake Digital Zoom resulting in less sharp background that why when using higher focal length and DOF the effect is more pleasant and photographic as with real camera lens with this focal 

    example below

    My problem is a bit different:

    Only the 1st hdri loads but not the following!

    I am not able to change the hdri. By doubleclicking on an other one this doesn't load.

    It's not the %20%20 problem. The files i have are correct.

    When i hit the "Defaults" button in the render options and reload then an other one of these HDRI this doesn't help. I get an empty scene where the HDRI is not loaded. See attachment.
    I have to change the hdri from hand in the Environment Map
     

    I have these problems only with this HDRI-Set. Other hdri load without problems.
