This has been requested by forum users a few times in several forums. Mentioned 2010 ticket is just one user case. But this usage fails, as seen in log attached. There seems to be an unjustified regression in the code, in `vbox-img.cpp`:797. The following line of code was withdrawn at changeset 33235 with commit message ""Storage/vbox-img: implement stdout handling"". {{{ AssertFailedReturn(VERR_NOT_SUPPORTED); }}} However for some reason this line has been reintroduced later on. I tested a custom build of vbox-img with the attached patch and the requested stdout handling worked well. Attached proposed patch against 6.1.14a code. Alternatively, if this capability is still immature, revise the `--help` output and reopen #6650 ",defect,new,other,VirtualBox 6.1.14,,"vbox-img, convert to RAW, stdout",,Linux,Linux
