Loading Layers from PSD or TIFF

Hi there!
I am trying to load layers by name from PSD and TIFF files using imageChosenLayerName. I can't get it to work.
Multilayer EXR files work, but I was under the impression this worked with other multilayer formats as well. Is this a bug or are PSD and TIFF just not supported for this feature?
This is 2021.1.6.0 in Houdini 19.5.368
Cheers!

As far as I know, this feature only works with EXR files, but I could be wrong. Do you know if Standalone has the same limitation? I think so.

AFAIK we only support layers via EXR in core, but can look into PSD for 2023.
