Export DNG with edits?

I'm going crazy trying to figure out how to export my edited DNGs from Lightroom. No matter what I do, when I export a DNG it exports the original file WITHOUT my modifications (crop, white balance, etc.) Am I missing something? Thanks!

Let's not forget, that if you do not have the option to 'automatically write changes to XMP' turned on, then you will have to manually select photos, and choose 'Metadata | Save Metadata to file', or 'Metadata | Update DNG Preview & Metadata' to have the changes you make in Lightroom saved into the DNG files and not just inside the Lightroom database. If you do not do this, then no external program will be aware of your changes to the DNG files at all.
What Jao said is true about other programs understanding the "edit list". It's only going to be understood by CS3 or Lightroom. But the instructions will be saved for those that understand it if you ask it to, and a fully developed preview will be saved if you choose the 'Update DNG Preview & Metadata' option. Other DNG aware programs will at least be able to see that.

Exporting photos with editing changes

Hi, I am new to LightRoom. This question might be stupid, but I am having trouble exporting my photos and maintaining the editing changes that I have made. Here are the specifics: I made changes to many raw photos using LR on my desktop computer (Microsoft XP operating system). I then exported those photos, as raw photos and jpegs, to organize them within my hardrive and further edit at a later date. I recently purchased a MacBook Pro. I then copied those exported photos onto my external hard drive and copied them onto my MB. I then imported the file into LR and the original photos are there without any of the editing I did such as changing WB, sharpening, etc. I am wondering what I did wrong? Did I miss a step, fail to check or uncheck some box, or is this a issue with going between Mac and Windows? Any suggestions?
Thank you,
carrie

One follow-up question...again, probably a naive one. Would I be able to tell the editing changes by looking at either the metadata or the developing tools of the jpg files that I edited in raw? Changes such as wb, sharpening, color boosting, etc. I am browsing through my jpgs and they don't appear to contain those editing changes that I speak of. Otherwise, Lee's answer makes sense to me. However, I am not sure if what my eye is perceiving is due to monitor differences. That is why I would like to see exactly if those changes registered.
Thanks,
carrie

How to export photos with editing from preview mode to hard drive and external hard drive?

I have applied changes to the photos in the preview mode. Unfortunately, I can't export them from preview mode to hard drive and external drives. Whenever the external drive is plugged, the changes I made are not applied to the photos on the both hard drives.

Sorry what do you mean Preview Mode? There is no Preview mode or module in LR. There is a Library and Develop module in LR. The Library module does have the ability to do some adjustments and the Develop module has all the image adjustments.
In any event to export an image you can either right click on it and select Export or when in the Library module you click the button that says Export.

Can't export to DNG with adjustments

HI all. I'm having a problem exporting a DNG file as an original or as DNG with adjustments. All the exports is the original DNG file. I do get a clean export with adjustments when I export to jpg. any thoughts?
here's the details: software is lightroom 4.1 and camera raw 7.1. File was NEF converted to DNG on import. numerous adjustment to tone, w/brushes, etc. xmp written to file. tried dng export preset as well as through the export module. exported to various versions of camera raw. all with no luck. opened in CS 5 and Preview, with the same results: no adjustments to DNG.
I have won a free high-end print and the printer says DNG will be better. Any thoughts??? have searched the forum to no avail.....
Thanks in advance!
David

My understanding is tht you have to direct Lr to save the develop settings to the dng files. Open - Edit - Catalog Settings - Metadata - Check the box "automatically write changes to xmp".

Failed to export images with droplet

I've Created a droplet and tested it successfully in Photoshop, then I use this droplet by select it in Post-Processing when I export DNG to TIFF in Lightroom, but there's a problem:
1. If PS is not opened when I'm exporting images in LR, the droplet will work well, i'll get an processed TIFF
2. If PS is opened before I'm exporting images in LR, the droplet won't work, then I get an unprocessed TIFF
Due to Situation 1, if PS is not opened when I'm exporting images and I tried to exported 30 images with droplet, finally I'll get only ONE image successfully processed, because PS was opened when LR export the first image.
Is there any solution for this problem?
Thanks!!

Thanks for reply. I think I found out the solution but I still not sure what the problem is.
At the first time, I choose "Edit in Photoshop" in Lightroom to Open the DNG file in PS, then I start recording actions, and end up these actions with "cmd-S" & "cmd-W", this proccessed image won't save to the original file (because that's a DNG), it will save to a new PSD file next to the DNG. I think this is why when I use this Droplet to proccess other images, it can't complete the proccess.
So the solution is to create droplet in a normal way, open images (not DNG or other RAW files) from Photoshop instead of Lightroom, so that the file could be saved to it's original file.
In my workflow, I export DNG images to TIFF and select droplet in Post-Proccessing, so after export these images, LR will put them into the droplet, I'll get the result by just one click. I also check "Add to This Catalog" so I can adjust them in LR later.
Thanks a lot!!

Export Problem with Color Image Washing Out

I did an export of an image from DNG to JPG in LR4. Funny thing is, the JPG suddenly appears with a washed out look. It looks the same in Develop and Print modules also.
It gets even funnier, because when I use Finder to check the photo, the preview of the image is fine. I also opened the image from Finder in Photoshop CS5 and it is fine there. I also opened the image in PSCS5 from LR4 with "Edit In" and again the image in Photoshop is fine. So this appears to be a view issue in LR4. I did not print out the washed out photo but I suspect it would print out as it appears in LR4.
I've done some other image exports from DNG to JPG with other images and they do not have this problem but those were black&white converted images. However, I did check doing an export of another color image with the same result as the problem image. Here are screen captures of the DNG and the exported JPG (I was going to upload the exported JPG, but like I said it appears fine in Finder):

My monitor calibration is just fine. I was saying that because similar
problems are almost always due to bad monitor profiles. If you calibrate
regularly using hardware calibration then you're probably fine. Many people
use canned profiles from monitor manufacturers however and lightroom is
highly sensitive to those and shows messed up color depending on the
source. In this case however, since the restart fixed it it was likely a
bad preview image. I have seen before that LR sometimes is lazy in
refreshing those and can show you strange results that only get cleared up
by forcing a preview refresh.
Last your top screenshot DOES show that you are pushing the red in that
dress out of the monitor gamut. You can check this in the soft proof in LR
4 by turning on the monitor gamut warning. If you blow the color out of the
monitor gamut the preview is no going to be accurate no matter how good
your calibration. Just a cautionary warning.

Problem with Edit IN function between LR 2.3 and PS CS3

I recently upgraded my system to a Windows Vista 64 bit Core 2 Quad with 8 GB. Lightroom now works and loads images the way it should. I do have one major concern and need any help possible.
I am using LR 2.3 in 64 bit and PS CS3 ver 10.0.1 (which is 32 bit - loads slowly but otherwise works fine). The problem I am encountering is in LR Develop / Photo / Edit In... - using any of the menu items:
"Edit in Abode Photoshop CS3"
"Open as Smart Object In Photoshop"
"Merge to Panorama in Photoshop"
"Merge to HDR in Photoshop"
"Open as layers in Photoshop"
Photoshop opens but no image(s) are exported and I receive the message in LR - "The file could not be edited because Adobe Photoshop CS3 could not be launched."
Photoshop, however, was launched but no image exported and so I can't work on the image in PS. The appropriate TIFF image is created in LR for the first two menu items - nothing for the last three menu items.
I can create a partial work around by setting PS as an external editor, however, I can't use 4 of 5 of the menu items.
All the menu items work fine in Windows XPpro.
Any help is much appreciated.
PS I also tried the most recent Window 7 RC with exactly the same results.
Thanks

Invalid export DLL or export format" with Crystal Reports 2008 to Excel xls

We are experiencing the same issue as reported in the sticky thread. I answered in that thread, but thought that I woudl open a new thread to keep track of this issue. I can give you the responses to your questions you have requested in that thread:
Server Operating System - MS Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition SP2

I've included this sticky because we are seeing many posts in this forum regarding the error Invalid export DLL or export format when exporting to Excel and RTF in .NET applications using the Crystal Reports 2008 .NET SDK.
Issue
Exporting a Crystal Report to Excel or RTF format
.NET application using the Crystal Reports 2008 runtime (version 12.0)
error Invalid export DLL or export format
We've been doing some testing in-house and haven't reproduced this behavior. In order to figure this issue out we will need your help. If you are getting this error please reply to this post with the following information:
Server Operating System

Any additional comments
What We Know
The error invalid export DLL or export format may occur when exporting to Excel and RTF formats in .NET applications utilizing the Crystal Reports 2008 runtime (v 12.0)
Other export formats like Adobe PDF, Crystal Reports, CSV all export with no error
Some customers have resolved this by adding C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 to their environment path variables
This may have something to do with the file libpng10.dll. Both crxf_xls.dll and crxf_rtf.dll are dependent on it.
Thanks in advance for your co-operation. We hope to figure out what is causing this issue soon.

Hi,
I am also having the same problem, except that I am not using Crystal Report 2008 runtime but the actual Crystal Report 2008 installation on Windows XP SP2 with VS Studio 2005 (VC++). MS .NET Framework 2.0.
Cyrstal Report XIR2 was installed on the same machine but uninstalled before installing Crystal Report 2008.
So only one instance of libpng10.dll and found in C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86
Crpe32.dll        3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
Crxf_xls.dll       3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
Crxf_rtf.dll         3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
crdb_oracle.dll 3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
libpng10.dll       3/1/2008 version 1.0.30.0             122880 bytes
There is no problem for exporting to pdf, html, word, csv, Crystal Report. If I create a testing report without any data from database, the testing report can then be exported also to rtf and xls.
Oracle 11.1.0.6 is the DB for the reports.
Adding C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 to the path did not resolve my problem.
Any idea to fix this issue?
Thanks

How to export the text edit data to excel file without splitting the data in excel file?

how to export the text edit data to excel file without splitting the data in excel file?
I have a requirement in SAP HR where in the appraiser can add comments in the area given and can export that to excel file. Currently the file is getting exported but the comments getting split into deifferent rows.
I want the entire comment to be fit in one row.
Please help.
Thank you

Hi,
if your text edit value is stored in 'lv_string' variable.
then before exporting the value to excel you have to remove CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE
that is '#' from the variable lv_string.
for that use code some thing like this.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE in lv_string WITH space.
I think this will do the trick.

Videos export with purple/green artifacts/splotches/flashes with Media Encoder CC but export fine with Premiere Pro CC?

I use Premiere Pro CC to edit videos, and videos render fine when I export through Premiere Pro, but when I try to use Media Encoder CC, the video exports with weird splotches of green/purple artifacts all throughout. It almost looks like the video is glitching and having a seizure of green and purple. No idea why this happens. Could anybody help me? I use Media Encoder to export bulks of videos at a time through its queue feature, which is why I prefer to use Media Encoder for video exporting.
Please and thanks.

Mitch,
I was hoping that you and others might have some insight as to whether the purple and green artifacts / splotches seen in the attached screenshots (taken from 4 consecutive frames here but occurring through the entirety of the clip) could possibly have resulted from exporting video with ~ Premiere Pro CS5 or 6 ? As seen below, these splotches alternate back and forth between purple and green in every consecutive frame. I was also hoping that someone might know if this is a relatively common type of artifact and how it is caused.

Help Migrating to DNG with Lr5

Hello,
I decided to migrate from RAW to DNG,
how can I convert the wholw Lr catalog without loosing my edit, rating, metadata, (all what is applied to my RAW files)
what will I loose by converting all my images to DNG, ?
thanks in advance

Short answer: in 99% of cases, you don't lose anything. But you will not be able to edit the files in the original software.
Longer answer:
if you convert a RAW to DNG with the last DNG converter/ACR/Lightroom, all the data will be still there, even the private manufacturers' data.
But the original software (DPP for Canon, ViewNX for Nikon, etc) will not be able to read them, since they do not implement the full DNG specs.
Se my post at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1414404#6155513 .
there are indeed some cases where you lose data: for example, Sigma DP Merril / Foveon data is linearized during the RAW-DNG conversion (look at http://www.barrypearson.co.uk/articles/dng/specification.htm for an explication).
And some cameras have blind photosites and other internal settings that are not saved to DNG since they are useless.
You also lose CRCs of the original files, like Nikon and Canon Image Authentication (well, it is not a severe issue, as these authentication systems have been cracked in 2011: http://techcrunch.com/2011/04/28/both-nikon-and-canons-image-authentication-systems-busted /)
As JimHess said, you don't lose any metadata applied by Lightroom, since they are saved in the Catalog and in the related XMP file.
What you gain with DNG?
- DNG is an open format, so you are sure that, in the case the manufacturer closes or decides not to support anymore your model, at least you have the full specifications to get back your data.
- XMP files are saved inside DNG, and not as a sidecar file, so you don't risk to lose your modifications when using the OS filesystem actions to move files (LR automatically moved RAW & XMP files)
- a DNG is usually lighter

Export Video with Multiple Audio Tracks

I need to be able to export video with audio on multiple tracks. I have moved to CS6 from FCP 7 where this was rather easy to do. I can make a preset in AME with more than enough mono tracks but after the encode the video is always smashed to one mono track. I am not doing a 5.1 mix, there are different mic's on each track that need to remain independant of one another and mixing them down within Premiere is not feasable. Are there no options to just have the audio 'pass through' like Compressor? Sorry if there are other posts but I have been searching forever and can not find a simple answer on this topic.
Also, is there no way to have the source timecode burn in? Putting a filter on the video in a sequence is unacceptable, I am very displeased to find that this doesn's seem possible in AME or Premiere, it has been part of Apple's suite for years.
Example of my preset from Compressor:

Hi James,
For exporting a multitrack .wav file, you have to start a project with a multichannel audiomaster (3-16 tracks).
Copy and paste your complete edit to the new editsetting.
Now in the audiomixer you can route your audiolayers to the multichannel you like.
(CH1+2 pan to left is channel 1, pan to right is channel 2 and for a stereo track pan to center : channel 1 for left and channel 2 for right.)
Then you export your project to a 3-16 tracks multitrack .wav file.
When you need mono tracks you can import your multitrack .wav file in premiere. Then send it to Audition (edit in Audition) and then adobe will convert the file into mono tracks.
You'll find the mono tracks in your audio capture folder or can premiere search for then by 'reveal in explorer'.
The multi track .wav file has got timecode within the file.
When exporting in QT you can also choose for a multitrack audio file. It also contains your timeline timecode.
.avi or .mp4 video files cannot be exported with more than 5.1 channels of audio
MXF OP1a in XDCAMHD can also be exported with max. 16 channels of audio. It also contains your timeline timecode.
Hopefully you can get further with Premiere Pro with this info.
Succes with it!!

Huge size scheme export in standard edition

Hi,
Source:-
Oracle 10.2.0.3 standard edition on Linux.
Destination:-
Oracle 11gR2 - enterprise edition.
I have to export a scheme of size 250+ gb, it taking long time to export as we do not have parallelism too in STD edition.
Is there any way? Where I can perform export & import faster?
Constraint is expdp of schema taking 30+ hours, so If transportable tablespaces, then is there any compatibility problem with source and destination versions and editions?
An what is the procedure?
Thanks.

You could concurrently run multiple export sessions with table lists --- but you wouldn't get data consistency if the tables are being updated.Thanks for your information.
This question is now out of TTS, talking in general expdp/impdp.
I have posted this question in Export/import division of Database, But no quick responses so i moved my question to Database-General.
Solomon Yakobson mentioned we can use 11gR2 binaries to perform export schema of 10g database, from below link.
