Does DNG Converter support CFA DNG for X-Trans files?

Does Adobe DNG Converter support the X-Trans sensor layout from ie. the X100S? Can converting an X-Trans sensor RAF file to to DNG result in a file that is _not_ in any way demosaiced and/or linearized?
If DNG Converter truly does support conversion of X-Trans to CFA DNG files, how can the resulting files be so much smaller (when not linearizing or ticking lossy compression of the DNGs)? The RAF files are all around 32 MB, while the DNGs are around ~23 MB. Is it only a matter lossless compression, or is the mosaiced data in some way altered?
If DNG Converter does support CFA DNG for X-Trans, at what DNG Converter version did you first implement support for the X-Trans sensor layout and conversion of X-Trans data to CFA DNG files?
These are important questions that I'm having a hard time finding answers for. I'd appreciate answer to any (but preferably all) of the questions.

  • DNG converter don't work for some RW2-files

    Hi,
    i found out, that there ist now direct support from CS4 to my new Lumix LX5. :-(
    In  some forums i got the hint to use the free DNG converter. that works  for most of the files, but some rw2's it can't convert. yesterday i made  10 pictures and the converter only identificate 7 of them. The only  thing i noticeed ist, that this files are "only" 7MB. The others are  10MB. When i use irfanview to look the rw2's are no problems. the  pictures are all very good. somebody an idea whats wrong with the 3?
    Thanks

    sorry for my english, but i hope you understand me!??

    I don't know anything at all about your file format, but it sounds as if there is an option to create compressed raw files.  I know Canon has this option.  It may be that somehow you used this compressed option, assuming that there is one, and it may be that the DNG converter does not support the compressed raw format.  If not, maybe someone else will have a better answer.

  • Why, when MobileMe was shuttered, does Apple NOT support calendar subscriptions for iCal (Calendar)?  I upgraded to Mountain Lion and cannot migrate my Dutch, U.K., Islamic, or Catholic holiday subscriptions.

    Why, when MobileMe was shuttered, does Apple NOT support calendar subscriptions for iCal (Calendar)?
    I upgraded to Mountain Lion and cannot migrate my Dutch, U.K., Islamic, or Catholic holiday subscriptions.  I had a heck of a time getting my Detroit Tigers Baseball team schedules migrated (but Major League Baseball supported the subscriptions, so it occurred).  As I work internationally, having these calendar subscriptions on the new Calendar would be very useful.
    If one goes to the Apple site, and seeks calendars [http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/calendars/index1.html], they are shunted to MobileMe [https://www.icloud.com/mobileme/not_found/], with the note "MobileMe is closed. Go to iCloud."  But, I do not see how to get subscriptions from iCloud.
    Thanks.

    The problem is that many of these calendars were hosted on MobileMe. I actually tried about 20 at random, and only two worked! Not all of the failures were ex-MobileMe, some were on other servers but produced 'File Not Found'.
    Strangely, this one worked despite its URL:
    http://ical.mac.com/ical/UK32Holidays.ics
    Until the people who publish these calendars (it's not Apple, they are third-party) wake up and find alternative servers these calendars are not available.
    There may be other sources which work - try Googling.

  • Does Solution Manager support Service Report for non-abap?

    Does Solution Manager support Service Report for non-abap?
    We can schedule and view reports for ABAP but for all the non-ABAP such as J2EE stack (PORTAL) we can not pull out a report.
    If the answer is yes please let me know where I can get the documentation of how to setup SLA for PORTAL or non-ABAP.
    I found a document on EWA non-abap but non for SLA.

    Hi
    actually i am in task of setting up ewa for portal.
    i had already done with abap components (ewa and sla)
    i stronly believe one of the pre-requiste to get sla is EWA.
    so i think if u can setup ewa for portal then you can get sla too.

  • Why does Verizon not support Windows 8 for wi fi?

    Why does Verizon not support Windows 8 for wi fi?  Are they planning on supporting Windows 8?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Verizon wi fi for hot spots does not work with Windows 8.  For verification go to FAQs about Verizon Wi-Fi for FiOS Internet, 
    http://www.verizon.com/Support/Residential/Internet/fiosinternet/networking/setup/wi-fi/124650.htm , and click on How do I know if my laptop or netbook is compatible with Verizon Wi-Fi? .  Verizon wireless home network does work well with Windows 8.
    Since you can't even download the wi fi for hot spots software if you have Windows 8, I don't know how to use compatability mode to get around the problem,

  • DNG Converter support for New Camera

    What is the approximate usual time from the release date of a new camera
    (specifically the Sony DSC RX100) and support for the camera by ACR or
    DNG Converter ?

    ACR and the Adobe DNG Converter are updated in an orderly fashion from three to four times a year.  So you'll see a new version every three to four months.
    The release of any new camera model has no bearing on this.

  • Adobe DNG Converter - command-line parameters for new 1.4 features

    Adobe DNG Converter - I need to know what the command-line parameters are for the new DNG-1.4 options (e.g. lossy compression).
    Last I checked, there was no updated documentation released - would somebody please help?
    Rob

    By inspecting strings in the exe file using ProcessExplorer (MS SysInternals), I found these command-line switches for controlling lossy compression:
    -lossy
    -size

  • DNG converter error NEF- DNG

    I'm using the latest version of adobe DNG converter (6.6.0.261) to try and convert my .NEF files to .DNG so that I can use my Macbeth Color Checker on them. I keep getting an "error parsing the file" message. I had used an older version of DNG converter (6.5.0.218) previously and it converted no problem. NEF is a supported file type and I believe that the files are not corrupted. How can I solve this problem?

    Hey.  Just uploaded the update to 6.6, which is 6.7.  I can open files now.

  • DNG converter fails on some Hasselblad H2D-39 files

    Hi,
    I run CS3 so I tried the new 5.4 beta. When converting a batch of .3FR files, some files convert while others do not. Those that convert work well when opened in CS3, those that do not result in an error message in the converter. I cannot really se any pattern in which files work and which files fail.

    Hi,
    Thanks for responding. I thought this was the forum pointed to from the download site, was not aware of the dng forum. Though there is another post on probs with convering Hasselblad files ( http://forums.adobe.com/thread/436615?tstart=0 ), my symptoms are quite similar ("Unknown error") so I would suspect this could be related to the same prob? As I am quite keen to get rid of the Phocus software, if there is anything I can do to help you fix the bug, just send me a note.
    Thanks, Håkan

  • DNG converter 7.1 doesn't see  NEF files

    I've been using a previous version (4.5) of the DNG Convertor without any problems.
    I downloaded 7.1 version after buying a Nikon D800.
    However when navigating to folders the program sees NO  files (D800, Nikon  D3, RAW, jpg.  or otherwise) saying "no items match your search" once the folder is opened.
    Please help.  Computer is Windows PC running Vista Home Premium.

    Jim,
    Please see my response to your answer on the adjacent posting - just to reiterate, I can see and try to select a folder I know to contain NEFs, but the program says "no folder selected" so that's that basically it and I can go no further. I've been using an earlier version of the dng converter which behaves in the way you outline with no problems at all. However I need the new version for D800 NEFs. I've tried to post a screenshot of the window where I select a folder. - I see the image isn't very clear but I've selected a folder outlined in blue on the left in the browsing window and the large window says "no items match your search"

  • DNG converter fails to extract embedded .cr2 raw files

    I just tried to extract embedded raw files from 889 raw files from a Canon 5D3 having been converted by the DNG converter 6.7 beta - the DNG converter only succeeded with extracting three of them. I also tried with the 6.6 stable version with the same result.
    If DNG converter can't easily retrieve the embedded raw files then I think this "feature" should be left out - it's misleading people into taking unwanted risks when you're better off just keeping the originals (it's a bit more messy to organise and archive two sets of files, but I'd rather do that than having to mess around with this)
    So stay away from this "feature" unless you want to paint yourself into a corner.

    Download and test the most recent version (final GM) of DNG Converter 6.7 and retest...might also be useful to provide a bit more info such as OS & CPU...and also whether or not the DNGs behave normally in ACR or LR. Basic troubleshooting info to test or duplicate your findings would be useful (required) before you can honestly be making such "blanket" statements about DNG Converter...

  • Does edge animate support any APIs for problematically defining the keyframe transitions ?

    Hi All Edge Animate Enthusiasts
    While playing around with the timeline window , I got a good idea of defining keyframes and modifying css properties of elements for transitions. However , when I look at the Edge Animate JS API, I see that there are functions available only for playing , stopping timeline from specific points ( time , label etc) . This obviously means that the animation sequence should have been defined in the timeline already , but what if I want to dynamically create a keyframe transition for an element in runtime.
    Does Edge Animate support it ?
    Thanks
    -Shyam

    The answer is no. But you can always write plain javascript code to achieve that, using the Edge API just for selecting various elements.
    But I doubt if generating dynamic keyframes using javascript will work as per http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18481550/how-to-dynamically-create-keyframe-css-animati ons
    And if you just want to add a static keyframe animations, then you can create a css file where you define such animations for a class say "myAnimation", and add this class dynamically to the html element which you want to animate by calling addClass() function.
         *You can insert the css rules or link the css file in the html page, by manually editing the html page using any text editor.

  • Does Adobe provide a free API for creating PDF files

    Does Adobe provide a free API (for Windows) for creating PDF files?   We are currently using
    a basic, internally developed API for creating PDF files, but would like some additional
    capabilities ... in particular the ability to add a watermark that appears when printing
    but not when viewing PDF files on-line.
    If this is not the right forum for this question, please let me know what forum would be
    appropriate.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    OK, with a little bit of searching on Adobe's web site, I found the answer to my question.   Yes, Adobe does offer
    an API for creating/manipulating/reading PDF files:  it's called the Adobe PDF Library SDK and it has to be
    licensed.  Version 9 is the latest.   The cost is decided on a case-by-case basis.    Here is the link:

  • Why does Aperture not support all DNG files?

    I have a Leica D-LUX 2 and an Epson RD-1. Both of these cameras create RAW files which are not supported by Apple. Why should the files, when converted to DNG, still require RAW support to be utilized. I understand the wrapper concept, but is this not the idea of DNG. What about cameras that create a DNG file, rather than RAW (i.e. the new Leica M8).
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Hi Kenneth,
    You're missing the point Karl is making. RAW data is (in essence) proprietary to the camera. All DNG does is essentially encapsulate that proprietary data in a standard format. The data is still proprietary whether DNG or RAW.
    By proprietary I mean that the sensor array and sensitivity to light, tonal correction across the gamut all are understood by the camera manufacturer and held as parameters (data) in the RAW or DNG file. It requires specific knowledge to interpret this data into a renderable image. Until such time as camera manufacturers agree that 1 = 1 and 2 = 2, we are stuck with this issue (and ALL our concern of x years from now when nobody supports what is our latest and greatest camera). An API included in Aperture (actually OS X) would at least allow camera manufacturers to write their RAW conversion algorithms and take Apple out of the loop.... as well as take dependence on OS X releases out of the loop too!
    Hope this clarifies.

  • How often does Adobe update DNG converter and/or Camera Raw to read files from new model cameras?

    My PC operates with Windows 7. I now have PSE 11 with Camera Raw version 7.1.0.354 which will not open my new Panasonic LX7 cameras RW2 raw files.  I have tried to use DNG version 5.7.0.213 (the latest) to convert my RW2 files to DNG files but it won't recognize the RW2 files as even existing.  Can I expect Adobe to update either of these programs any time soon?  If not, any ideas?  Thanks
    (This is my first question on any forum, so hope I have used the correct protocol.)

    I believe the current Release Candidate (ACR 7.2 RC) supports your camera.  You can download it from the Adobe Labs site.
    http://labs.adobe./downloads/cameraraw7-2.html
    This is a Release Candidate, which means it is not completely checked out but Adobe would like users to use and report problems.  It will be released before the end of October as a production release. 
    I know this works with Photoshop CS6, but don't know about Photoshop Elements 11.
