### My Question
Hello all,
i have a bunch of point clouds which i want to process further with Open3d (Python 0.16.1). All of them contain infinite points, which I dont care about beeing removed. I tried to read them with [read_point_cloud](http://www.open3d.org/docs/latest/python_api/open3d.io.read_point_cloud.html#open3d.io.read_point_cloud):
`open3d.io.read_point_cloud(filename, remove_nan_points=True, remove_infinite_points=True)`
But this doesn't work how i would expect. I get this error:
> RPly: Error reading 'x' of 'vertex' number 0
[Open3D WARNING] Read PLY failed: unable to read file: filename
My file looks like this:
```
ply
format ascii 1.0
element vertex 2073600
property float x
property float y
property float z
property uchar red
property uchar green
property uchar blue
end_header
-inf -inf inf 1 1 1
-inf -inf inf 0 0 0
...
```
How can i read this files using Open3D?
Thanks in Advance
