I was wondering if there is any way to get the ucsc public track hubs into IGB? I've played around with the data access tab without much success. Ideally I'd like to browse the mouse ENCODE tracks in IGB

Unfortunately IGB does not support adding UCSC Track Hubs at this time.

We are preparing a new release of IGB with support for UCSC DAS, which includes additional tracks from UCSC.

You can download the latest early-release version here: https://bitbucket.org/lorainelab/integrated-genome-browser/downloads/

Following up on Nowlan's reply:

Can you send us the link to the track hub you are interested in viewing in IGB?

We could also reconfigure the data into an IGB Quickload site, which you could then add to IGB as a new data source.

We are currently developing a site that will allow for the public UCSC track hubs to be visible in IGB: https://www.bioviz.org/public-trackhubs.html
