How do I add DxO 9 as a lightroom external editor?

I posted this in the beginners section but was recommended to move it to more advanced viewers.  I have lightroom 5.3  I want to use DxO 9 from within Lightroom as an external editor, to both convert raw to tiff and make use of the lens corrections.  I want to have both Raw files and tifs created by DxO 9 in my catalog.  I can do it externally then import both folders after I do the work in DxO or possibly do it within Lightroom using DxO 9 as an external editor.  The instructions in the Lightroom help section tell me I can add the program as an available external editor by going to "photo" dropdown and select edit in and then pick the "provided link" which lets me insert a link to DxO 9 but such an option does not appear in lightroom 5.3 as best as I can find.  Is it possible to do this or do I just avoid lightroom until I use DxO to create my altered tif files and then import both folders (tiff and NEF raw) into Lightroom.  I am in windows 8 pc

From LR's Edit In item in the right-click context menu, after you have set it up in Preferences/External Editing, you can send DxO a tiff file with LR's rendering. However you can't send the original Nef and even if you could DxO would not be able to read and implement LR's editing instructions, even if they are saved to an xmp file. And the opposite is true also, edits and image alterations done by DxO can only be brought to LR in a tiff exported from DxO. Neither program will alter the Raw image data directly.

  • How can I use DxO 9 as an external editor in lightroom 5.3 ?

    I tried to follow the directions in help.  They were to: Open a photo and go to "photo" or "develop" tab in Lightroom.  Under  drop down,  find "edit in"  tab
    Then it lists programs but not DxO 9.  The help menu says "if not listed, just add it using a dialogue that lets you navigate to it".  There is no dialogue that lets you do that in Lightroom 5.3 tthat I can find!  How can I put my raw Nikon NEF files in Lightroom and then "edit in" to batch process the NEF raw files in DxO and store the raw and the tiff files in Lightroom?  Should I do that processing in DxO 9 outside of lightroom and then import both a folder of NEF raw files and a second folder of processed, converted to Tiff,files?

    I have been struggling with the  issue ( D610, lightroom 5.3 and DxO 9 elite).  My solution is going to be just to download to a subfolder of photos outside of lightroom, maybe call it "new folder" and have it contain new NEF files and a second subfolder called new tiff files.  Then use DxO to do whatever I want with the new nef files and save them as tiff files in a different folder.  You could also have DxO Export each treated Nef as a Tiff to lightroom.  I kind of think just using a new folder containing nef and tiff subfolders and then importing may be the be best way to go.  I still have to figure out how lightroom handles the changes in the photo now a tiff.  I also want to use OnOne perfect photo suite 8 as my primary editor for the tiffs rather than photoshop. Photoshop sets me nuts due to the complexity. I don't use any of these on a weekly much less daily basis so to remember all the complexities is more than I can handle. In the interim I bought the Laura Shoe videos as well as a set by George Jardine.  Hopefully they will shed some light. Took me a few hours just to figure out something so simple as how to get photo info to show up on the thumbnails!  I spent even more time deleting photo duplicates from the lightroom catalog and phot folders!  Now I also need to relable the subfolders since it split them all up by date and not names or initial folders they came from.  

  • How do I add microsoft office to an external hard drive when my start up disc is full?

    I have installed adobe collection and final cut studio on my macbook pro. That being said my start up disk is full and I need microsoft office so I was wanting to know how I could add microsoft office to and external hard drive without deleting the whole adobe collection and reinstalling because I can't put office on my computer. Also I have a 120 gb solid state hard drive so hard drive kit would be expensive to replace and a hassle to redownload programs.

    When you say full, how full do you mean? If you are under 10% of free space, you are headed for a big crash. I hope you have everything backed up.
    You can copy MS office to an external drive but you don't want to run it, or any other program from an external drive, inclduing flash drives. You'd be much better off moving your music, photos, and/or documents to the external and putting your applications that you are using on the MBP hard drive. If you need to use the music, photos or documents, then drag them individually over to the MBP. Adobe CS and MS Ofice should definitely reside on the hard drive, no question about it.

  • How to add Live Type in the external editor windows?

    I was just refreshing myself by one of the FCP dvds from magent media where Even Schechtman show his window of External Editors in System Settings.
    I have the latest FCP version but that line which reads "Live Type" in external editor window is missing. Though he didnt discuss anything on the dvd but made me curious of my observation.
    How Can I add Live Type message box which can be checked in External editor Window?
    Thanks

    This is something specific to FCP4.x ... it does not appear in FCP5.x
    Final Cut Pro HD: LiveType does not appear in the External Editors tab
    Under some circumstances, the External Editors tab (choose Final Cut Pro HD > System Settings) in Final Cut Pro HD does not display a setting for "LiveType Movie Files."
    This can happen if you installed Final Cut Pro HD from a new Final Cut Pro HD disc, as opposed to installing it from an upgrade. If you upgraded from Final Cut Pro 4 to Final Cut Pro HD, you will not have this issue. If you upgraded from an earlier version of Final Cut Pro using an upgrade disc, you will not have this issue.
    You can still add LiveType files to the timeline even if LiveType does not appear in the External Editors tab. The behavior may be slightly different, depending on whether you add a LiveType project file or a LiveType movie file to the Timeline.
    If you add a LiveType project file (for example, MyProject.ipr) to the Timeline and then choose to open it in an External Editor, the file will open automatically in LiveType as a LiveType project.
    If you add a rendered LiveType movie file to the Timeline and then choose to open it in an External Editor, the file will open in the Editor you've selected for Video Files (in the External Editors tab) or in QuickTime Player if none is selected.
    In summary, "LiveType Movie Files," only appears if you upgrade to Final Cut Pro HD from an earlier version of Final Cut Pro 4. It is not required in the External Editors beacuse a LiveType project file will automatically open in the LiveType application and a movie rendered from LiveType will automatically open in QT Player.

  • How do I delete references to Photoshop as External Editor?

    I loaded Photoshop CS4 as a trial, and subsequently deleted it.  I have Elements 7, and DxO Pro, which I would like to make my external editor options.  When I go to the External Editor Preferences page, the first option is Photoshop CS4 (not found), leaving only one choice.  Is there a way to delete the Photoshop CS4 reference, and have the two others as my options?

    First off, you probably have to manually set the option to one of the other applications (eg Photoshop Elements). Adding additional editors should be self explanatory (see attached screen shot). To delete Presets you should open the Presets tab in Lr Preference panel. Towards the middle of the panel you should see a button labelled "Show Lightroom Presets folder...". Click on the button and Lr will take you to the LIghtroom folder. Look for the subfolder named "External Editor Presets" - deleting the contents of this folder removes all existing presets. You can also delete individual presets if this is all you want to do.

  • PSE12 as a Lightroom External Editor

    I have just purchased & installed PSE12 and want to use it as a external editor with Lightroom 4.  I have set up LR4, but when I ask LR4 to edit a photo in PSE12, the PSE12 Editor opens but no image appears.  I had an older copy of PSE8 set up this way, and the editible image appeared just fine.  What do I need to do differently?  In LR4, I have PSE12 set-up as an additional external editor with PSD format, 8 bits, Adobe RGB (1998) and 300 resolution.  I am working on an iMac running OSX 10.8.5.
    Thanks in advance for any help with this

    In Lightroom, where you set up the external editor, you need to point the the PSE12 Editor app executable and not the PSE12 application itself. As I am not a Mac user, I cannot provide the exact details.

    The watermark should show up on the photos you Export when you’ve enabled it for a particular Export batch. 
    Some fonts aren’t compatible with watermarking, though, so you might try another font and see if it works better.

  • How do I add new photos to my external back up without duplicating the entire library?

    My iPhoto libraries are a complete mess. I can't be the only person who:
    a) wants a number of libraries for different types of image (digital art, holiday snaps, etc)
    b) wants to keep the bulk of his library on an external drive, to free up space on my main hard drive.
    One problem is that iPhoto does not show things clearly. It does not say:
    a) which hard drive the currently displayed iPhoto library is in
    b) which iPhoto library is currently open (at the top it just says iPhoto instead of giving a directory).
    Another problem is that when I import photos from my iPhone or camera, they automatically go into the iPhoto libaray on my main hard drive; I don't seem to be asked: "To which iPhoto library do you want to import these photos?"
    On top of that, whilst in some cases a pop-up asks if you really do want to add a duplicate image to a certain location, I haven't found a simple way when doing back ups to ONLY ADD NEW IMAGES to an existing library ('Apply to all' etc.)
    As a result, I have loads of duplicates in different libraries, with crazy titles like: "Mostly family photos up to Sept 2010" or "Digital images to June 2012, many duplicates."
    A friend recommended iPhoto Library Manager but I don't find that well laid out and haven't used it.
    As I've also had difficulty upgrading my iPhoto libraries, I've started saving my photos in a regular folder (not iPhoto), with View set to large icons. I find that easier to organise.
    So....Can anyone advise on a simple clear way of organising my photos and adding new ones in to the appropriate folder?
    Many thanks,
    Eatmorenuts

    One problem is that iPhoto does not show things clearly. It does not say:
    a) which hard drive the currently displayed iPhoto library is in
    b) which iPhoto library is currently open (at the top it just says iPhoto instead of giving a directory).
    Correct - it always uses the last selected library - If you use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  to manage your libraries you do have a display showing whaih=ch library you are using
    And with iPhoto '11 you can switch libraries from the file menu
    You can always suggest a new feature to Apple - iPhoto manu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
    Another problem is that when I import photos from my iPhone or camera, they automatically go into the iPhoto libaray on my main hard drive; I don't seem to be asked: "To which iPhoto library do you want to import these photos?"
    Incorrect - when you import photo to iPhoto they always go to the currently selected library which could be any library in any valid location
    On top of that, whilst in some cases a pop-up asks if you really do want to add a duplicate image to a certain location, I haven't found a simple way when doing back ups to ONLY ADD NEW IMAGES to an existing library ('Apply to all' etc.)
    Not sure what you are saying - did you see the "apply to all" check box?
    As a result, I have loads of duplicates in different libraries, with crazy titles like: "Mostly family photos up to Sept 2010" or "Digital images to June 2012, many duplicates."
    Correct IF you do not have a good plan for managing multiple libraries and IF you do not folow it - iPhoto is a basic program designed for the mass market and knows only about the current library - it has no idea about any otehr libraries - it is far better to have only one library - but if you choose to have multiple libraries tehn you must ahve a good plan for managing them and yo must follow yoru plan - if you do not then it will not work wisince what you doing is not a feature of iPhoto
    A friend recommended iPhoto Library Manager but I don't find that well laid out and haven't used it.
    Well your friend made a good suggestion and it is a great product for manageing multiple libraries - but if you do not like it then you should not use it
    As I've also had difficulty upgrading my iPhoto libraries, I've started saving my photos in a regular folder (not iPhoto), with View set to large icons. I find that easier to organise.
    Then the question arises "why are you using iPhoto at all?" It does not work like you want, you prefer using teh finder to organize your photos and you have created a mess by trying to use iPhoto in ways it was not designed to be used - your best choice is to not use iPhotoa and do it your self the way you prefer
    So....Can anyone advise on a simple clear way of organising my photos and adding new ones in to the appropriate folder?
    Yes - use one library and learn how to use iPhoto (BTW in iPhoto folders do not hold photos - they only hold albums and other folders) - the solution is to have one library with multiple backups and to organize using albums, folders, Keywords and folders in the single iphoto library
    Otherwise you need a different program and different workflow - what you have is not working and is almost impossible to make work - either use iPhoto the way it is designed or use a program that is designed like you want

  • How do you add a third party web text editor to Muse?

    I'm recreating a site and I need a way to store publications on one of the pages of the site. It's something that is updated weekly so I need it to have an archive feature but I really no idea how this can be done. Here's an example:
    I downloaded this thing called CKEditor but have no clue how to use it... Any help would be great.

    Hi Ethan,
    As you can see from my Word document, I am a little light on the proper terminology.  That's because LVLM comes with inadequate documentation.
    I have already followed your recommended protocol for installing a 3rd party sensor (in fact, its the protocol recommended by Mindsensors) with the application set in the Remote Mode (.lvrbt), and it does create a sub-palette with all the Mindsensors functions on it.  But when I drag the Mindsensors icon to the Block Diagram and select "Distance Sensor," the Distance Sensor (an IR sensor) doesn't work (even though the Mindsensor's Distance Sensor does work with NXT-G, RobotC and LVLM under other circumstances (see below)).
    If I repeat the above process with the application set in the Direct Mode (.vi), I also get the sub-palette with all the Mindsensors functions on it.  When I drag the Mindsensors icon to the Block Diagram and select "Distance Sensor," the Distance Sensor does work.
    What I need for my mapping application is for the Distance Sensor to work in the Remote Mode.  I called NI tech support and the first engineer told me to simple drag the Mindsensors Functions (.vi) onto the Block Diagram.  I did this, but when I selected the Distance Sensor, the icon appeared, but the sensor did not work.  Since I have no idea what's under the hood of the vi or a function, I assumed that simply dragging the vi/function onto the desktop didn't install the vi/function properly.  I went back to the Applications Engineer, and he confessed that he did not understand the LVLM product.
    My frustration is being punted to new people, none of whom so far (other than you, of course) understand LVLM.
