Are my existing DNGs affected by a newer RAW-Algorithm ?

Hi,
I'm thinking about switching to the DNG-Format for the RAW-Files taken with the Fuji X-E1.
When the initial RAW-Conversion for this file type was recently replaced by a much better one, my RAW-Files were automatically updated. I wonder if this would also have happened if I had saved my RAWs under the DNG-format.
Or, in other words, does a DNG include all the data from the original RAW allowing it to be reprocessed when a better technology is available ?
Thanks

Normally the DNG file contains a form of the 1-color-per-pixel raw data; however, for Fuji X-Trans sensor cameras, at least before Adobe updated the demosaicking algorithm, the DNG files for Fuji XTrans-sensor cameras contained a demosaicked linear-DNG data-3-colors-per-pixel.
This was apparent after Adobe updated its algorithms for XTrans and the older DNGs still looked bad and could not be made to look ok, even with another conversion to DNG. I am less sure if Adobe still does this with their newer XTrans decoding algorithm or not, but if I had an XTrans-sensor camera I would not convert to DNG unless I had reasonably compelling reason to do so. I don’t current convert to DNG with my Canon cameras and I can’t imagine what would make me do so with an XTrans camera.

DNG Converter converts existing dng files to.....dng!

Today I decided to convert all of the raw files on one hard drive to dng format. The dng converter has converted about 4,000 of a little over 15,000 raw files so far. I scrolled through the conversion status list and noticed that the converter is also converting existing dng files into dng files thus creating a duplicate. Why in the world would a person need, or want to , convert existing dng files to dng files? I new that I already had some dng files on the hard drive, but I never would have imagined that the converter would include dng files in the list of raw files to convert to dng.
It is not a big deal to find and delete. All I have to do is do a search for all files that end in _1.dng. No biggie, but it seems redundant to me to waste time on this conversion. Is there an option to choose not to convert dng files? I can not look at the moment because the converter is converting dng files and is busy. LOL.

You still have not provided any documentation to back up your assertion that Adobe makes plain, or even unplain for that matter, that DNG files are going to be included in the conversion process. I am not asking you to "slavishly go over a variety of documents in order to provide proof", you state as a matter of fact that the documentation exists. Your failure or inability to produce any proof can only be interpreted as meaning that it does not exist. You are speaking about something that you apparently do not have a clue about. You only seem to act like you know what you are talking about. It is pointless to discuss this with you any longer. I accept the fact that you are not going to be able to provide official Adobe documentation stating that DNG files are going to converted along with camera dependent raw files. Apparently, you had no prior knowledge of this issue, because you did not share a reason in your post. And, you still do not share documentation....because you do not have any! FAIL!
As far as making contributions, just because I have only posted 14 times on this forum is not a clear indicator of my total contributions. I am not going to get into a "I have made this many posts on this forum and that forum argument" with you. It is pointless and childish.
And how were you trying to help me? You were not. You offered nothing. Your comment only had one purpose: to make fun of another person and/or to incite a reaction. You did that very well. You need to be honest with yourself and think about what kind of contribution you were making in your original post. You did not offer anything accept for a smartaleck answer.
As far as acknowledging the utility's ability to convert dng files to newer files, yes I knew that the converter could be used to update existing DNG files. I did not imagine that it would convert an existing dng file and produce a duplicate. Big difference!
And what is wrong with venting? I expressed frustration with something that I found bothering. Adobe would like for everyone to adopt this format. One way of achieving that goal is for people to use the converter. But, if people are not happy with the converter, then they may not convert, or recommend the use of the converter. I use the converter, and I use camera raw to convert to dng as well as converting upon import.
You can not defend yourself on the issue of documentation to back up your claim apparently because it does not exist.
I apologize for referring to you as "Mr. Smartypants". I can clearly see now that I was wrong for calling you that.
I know that I am guilty here of inserting my own emotion into your original response. I have a 50% chance that I was correct in assuming that you were simply being humorous and not condescending. Again, I should have ignored your post as it was completely worthless. I apologize for that.
And, at the moment, I do not feel very smart for participating in this childish discussion with you. I am much too old to be doing this.

HT204053 i want to change an existing icloud account to a new icloud account?

I want to change an existing icloud account to a new icloud account

If you want to create a new iCloud account and migrate your data to the new account, you'll have to delete the existing account, create the new account with a new ID, and then migrate your data to the new account.
Before doing this, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll or you will lose them. To do this, open the my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.

Transfer rules are not exist for ECC Quality source system in BI Dev

Hi,
I Connected BI Dev system To ECC Dev and installed the sales, purchasing,... data flow, but here i am not getting the quality data to show the reports, to get Quality data I established the connection between BI Dev and ECC QA, while installing the transfer rules for the ECC QA data sources there no transfer rules are exist(only some of them exist) in the business content, but all the update rules,... are exist, when i right on the data source say create transfer rules it is proposing App praposal.
When i select source system as ECC dev while installing the transfer rules i can see all the transfer rules, but when i select source system as ECC QA i can see only some transfer rules.
only problem with transfer rules(some of them exist), for remaining all objects are properly existing in business content for ECC QA source system.
Regards,
chandra

Hi Fayzrakhmanov
Thanks for the quick reply. We are not moving the stuff to QA. We are only connecting QA ECC system to BI Dev. We already have datasources moved to ECC QA and created source system for ECC QA in BI Dev.
The problem is I am not able to get Business Content transful rule for new source system. We I can find some but not all unlike development.
Help on this would be appreciated.
Thanks

Does time capsule make duplicate copies of the files those are already exist in it?

Does time capsule make duplicate copies of the files those are already exist in it?

It's not clear just what you mean.
If you're backing-up your Mac, via the Time Machine software, to a Time Capsule or external HD, then yes, by default, Time Machine will copy everything the first time. Subsequent backups will copy only what's new or changed.
If you mean, can you back up other data on a Time Capsule, no, not with Time Machine. It can only back up TO a network location, not FROM one.

Using a existing Document type for a new requirement.

Hi Gurus,
I have a Sales Documnent type ZOR which was earlier used and now this not being used any more.
If we start using the same document type again after changing the description will it have any negative Implications?
Will any reporting or financial posting or Audit issue occur as we use the existing document type with a new desciption for a new requirement.
Thanks
Montee

Monti,
1. First you will have to decide that the document you have created for a business process is going to be reappear in future. if not then you can change the document description and reuse it.
2. Within the document type take care of no. range assignement, Pricing date and billing documents you have assigned (Delivery related or order related)
3. Item category usage, you would have assigned an item category for this document type check the item category assignement when you are using it for new process relook into into item category details screen. Check even Schedule line category details and its assignement
4. Check Copy controls once again (Delivery related or order related).
5. Check the Delivery and billing documents associated with it.
6. Check its assignement to a specific sales area if configured else OK

SPD 2010 won't overwrite existing workflow but creates a new version instead

When editing then saving and publishing an existing SharePoint Designer workflow a new version of the workflow is created but the previous version is still available in the SharePoint list for a user to select and start manually.
Example: The original workflow is named Email Notes. After editing and publishing there are now two workflows available: Email Notes and Email Notes (1). Future edits increment the number so now we have Email Notes, Email Notes (1), Email Notes (2) and so
on. Any of these workflows can be started. It looks like SPD won’t overwrite the existing workflow. SPD only shows the original Email Notes workflow.
The problem appeared after making the setting change: SharePoint Central Administration > Application Management > General Settings > Workflow settings > Workflow Task Notifications. I selected yes for "Allow external users to participate
in workflow by sending them a copy of the document?"
After noticing the effect it had on editing workflows I reverted to the default "No" but the problem persists.
One wouldn’t think making that change would cause my current problem but I have confirmed the behavior on a test server with images from our live environment.
Has anyone seen or heard of this before? I found one random post on a site where someone else had experienced the same thing.

Hi,
This is a known behaviour. When you publish the new version of the workflow, the previous version is still available because there might be some workflows executing in lists and libraries on this version. But you can remove the previous versions so that
they are not available for the users to starts. Go to List/Library > Settings > Workflow Settings.
You will see all the previously published versions of the workflow. Here it shows the version of the workflows with Allow, No New Instance or Remove options. By default, previous version workflow should change to "No new instance" so users cannot
start this manually. If this does not happen then this workflow will be available for users to start as in your case. If no instances of previous version are running, then select remove, and click Ok. Hope it clarifies.

Delta are pointing Old BW system instead of new BW system

Hi,
We are doing upgrade and as part of upgrade BI 7.0 we have copied existing BW system into new BW system.
I have a extracted data from R/3 to BI system.All the full loads went through successful except Delta data load into BI system.
Delta data source are pointing Old BW system instead of new BW system.
I have checked RSA7 where all the deltas are pointing to Old BW system instaed of new BW syste.
I beleive some thing might have happend during System copy from Old BW system to New BW system.
Please correct me if i am wrong about my scenario
I would like to delete delta init which is pointing to BW old system and would like to do new delta .
For that i would like to delte entries in R/3 source table ROOSPRMSF,ROOSPRMSC.
In BW side RSSDLINIT and will extract data using full update and then will do delta init without data transfer and do delta on it.
Please some advise me which is best way
to check with basis do ask them to correct it,other wise deleting deltafrom delta queue.
Its urgent

Hi,
You have to check the TRFCQOUT table to see if the Delta queues are still pointing to the old system ID.
Using ABAP program you can change the System ID. you can use the below code by creating a custom report( executable Program) you can change the System ID's . You should have done this before pulling delta's
anyway, you can try to change and see if you can pull deltas.
Tables: TRFCQOUT, RFCATTRIB.
Data: count type i.
parameters:
       ssystem like trfcqout-dest obligatory default 'Production System Id here',
       tsystem like RFCATTRIB-rfcdest obligatory default 'Non Production System Id here',
       tmod as checkbox default 'X'.
if ( sy-sysid = 'R/3 Production system id here' or sy-sysid = 'BW production system id here' ).
write:/ 'You are not permitted to run this program in production.'.
stop.
endif.
if tmod = 'X'.
Select count( * ) into count from TRFCQOUT where dest = ssystem.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
    write:/ 'Cannot process request, return code ', sy-subrc.
    stop.
else.
    write:/ count, 'entries in TRFCQOUT will be converted.'.
endif.
else.
This will update the qRFC queue by changing all specified queues
related to a source logical system to a target logical system.
This enables the copied systems to remain consistent without
having to run any loads.
UPDATE TRFCQOUT SET   DEST = tsystem
                  WHERE DEST = ssystem.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
    write:/ 'Examine return code not equal to zero.'.
    stop.
else.
    write:/ sy-dbcnt, 'entries were updated in table TRFCQOUT.'.
endif.
endif.
Thanks

How to add lens metadata to existing DNG files?

I shot some images with a fully manual optic, so lens data was not embedded in RAW files, hence they are not existant in DRG files after conversion.
Is there a way to edit those DNG files in Lightroom so they would include lens name and focal lenght I manually enter?
Regards,
Romuald

>That said, I would love a secret mode for this.
It's called a Text Editor and it doesn't even and to touch the raw file (i.e. CR2, NEF, MRW, etc). Save out the metadata to XMP sidecar, use search and replace to overwrite the lens info, then read the metadata back in Lightroom. Lightroom will use the edited metadata instead of the embedded EXIF data. I've used this method for years. TextWrangler (Mac) or similar on Windows can run a search/replace on a batch of files (thousands if need be).
For example:
Find:
24.0-70.0 mm
replaced with
EF24-70mm f/2.8L USM
You can't use above method on DNG directly. So, you create and edit the XMP sidecar before converting to DNG. Either way you're leaving the original Makernotes intact and therefore running no risk of screwing the file.
At some point in the future it should be possible to skip above and write the lens data directly into the Lightroom database and back to the sidecar or DNG if required. Unfortunately, not this cycle.

Why are you trying to force us into new plans that cost more and offer less?

My wife and I are long term customers on a grandfathered Family Share Plan (2 lines with unlimited data, 1000 texts each, and 500 shared minutes). Now that my children are getting older I am ready to get them their own mobile phones; however, you won't allow me to add them to our existing plan (even if those new lines do not include a data package). As recently as a few months ago I could have added a new line (talk only) for $9.99 per month. After an hour of discussion with your loyalty-program service rep, the only options offered to me were 1) give up the old plan and have all of us forced into a new one that will cost more while offering us significantly less, or 2) keep the existing plan for my wife and me and start a new "family" plan for my children (which,again, will be more expensive while offering less). It would be much more convenient for all of us to be on the same plan with the same provider, but you are not allowing that to happen. Your customer service representative acknowledged multiple times that I have been a long term loyal customer -- but if you don't reciprocate that loyalty then I also am a misguided fool who is allowing you to take advantage of me. So now I will have to start investigating mobile service alternatives for my children; given the lack of loyalty that you have shown me thus far, l guess it's time to see what your competitors have to offer.

I could do the same. I believe you had possibly an older plan than what I had that allowed more than 3 lines. I remember specifically being kicked back an error and telling me to move to the 1400 minute plan as that was the only one that support 3 or more lines.
Too bad I don't have screenshots of it. I purge my screenshots when making changes to anything on line for verification.
