How to convert DNG to Cinema DNG ?

I have my RAW to DNG conversion working.
Next step is to write out Cinema DNG files ?
There is a lack of info about Cinema DNG.
Is it just a cDNG header followed by RAW files concatenated together ?
Is there a custom EOF ?
Is there a tag to indicate size of each frame ?
Cheers!

It seems that the thumbnail created by adobe DNG converter is a source of problem for Da Vinci Resolve, to recognize a series of DNG as Cinema DNG. So if we could have a solution to remove this thumbnail, hallelujah !

How to add to a DNG file, the XMP metadata that transforms it into Cinema DNG ?

Hello,
I would like to know how to convert a series of DNG files into Cinema Dng ? What I read is that Cinema DNG has more XMP metadata than DNG. Is there a tool to add this kind of metadata ?

How do i set preferences in LR 2.4 to convert all imports to DNG?

How do i set preferences in LR 2.4 to convert all imports to DNG? Is there any downside to doing this automatically?

There isn't a preference for automatically converting to DNG, instead you choose Convert to DNG within the File Handling section of the Import window.
Within the Import section of the Preferences panel you need decide how the DNG files are to be created. The following screen shot is probably the best choice for Lr 2.4 and later.

How can I import cinema dng files in Premiere Pro CC?

Hi,
I wanna use Blackmagic Cinema DNG 4k RAW files for my productions in Premiere. As specified by Adobe that schould be no problem.
When I import the dng-folder or a list of *.dng files they are displayed in assets view as single photos. How can I create a video track from these "photo batches" in the sequence window?
Much thanks in advance for any help !!!
Cheers Peer

Good Peer, glad that solves the import problem for you. I suspect the next version of Premiere CC might not have its import path split with two different results as such.
Back in CS6 I was importing all media through the Project bin. Then with the first Premiere CC, compressed dng from the bmpcc became supported (I think your 4K just became supported recently). So, with the new CC, I kept importing all files through the project bin, and that resulted in hours of import time, and the same hours of re-conforming the same files every time I re-opened the project. And, the same hours of time direct linking into Speedgrade (by the way I love Resolve also).
Then, months later, I heard of importing through the Media Browser and all that time melted away into instantaneous import and quick direct link to Speedgrade.
If you have any projects with dng sequence files imported through the Project bin, I do not remember the exact procedure, it is simple though, just 'make offline' and almost certain it is 'replace footage' to properly Media Browser imported video.

How to import 4k cinema dng on premier pro 2014

how to import 4k cinema dng on premier pro 2014 ?

Wow. Thanks Colin.
When I follow your approach, I don't get the same "sequence preset" dialog box popping up.
FU question, though, the motion is frequently jagged. Is there a way to smooth out/increase the quality of the rendering? I have 16gb ram, Mac Pro. which is able to handle iPhone video rending fine in quicktime. (I've tried rendering for "performance" and "memory" but both seem to produce, eh results.).

How can I safely convert CR2 files to DNG after Import from catalog

Images on my laptop from 2 photoshoots in the studio today were EXPORTED from laptop as catlog and imported to desktop as catalog.
I imported without moving the files anywhere since I was instructed to move that folder to its final resting place.
The 125 images were importred into LR4 but I see they are still CR2 files.
Is there a way to convert these guys to DNG inplace? or is it safe to re-import these. I don't want the side car gig.

Convert to DNG (Library Menu) - do not re-import.

Plans to enable import of Cinema DNG (RAW) files from the Blackmagic POCKET Cinema Camera

Are there plans to enable import of Cinema DNG (RAW) files from the Black Magic POCKET Cinema Camera into Adobe Premiere Pro CS6?

There won't be any new features introduced in CS6, only some bug fixes if ever. All new features go into CC. Rumour has it that Camera RAW will be added into PrPro (sooner or later).
Off topic question: have you tried to convert BMPCC CinemaDNG files into DNG via Adobe DNG Converter? Resulting files are about 15% larger, so I hope that is what constitutes uncompressing them and making possible to import into PrPro CC natively (I'm not on CC, hence can't test, but I'm curious).

Converting JPEG files to DNG in Lightroom

Is there any advantage to converting JPEG files to DNG when I import them into Lightroom? I am trying to maintain the quality of the file.
Would it be better to save a JPEG file as a PSD file after I import it to use it in Photoshop and Lightroom?

(Please pardon the change of subject:)
Fred T. said, "If you are editing a JPEG in Photoshop going from Lightroom, let Lightroom create a TIFF. "
I am wondering how to do this. I'm just an amateur and my non-SLR camera doesn't even save RAW images. ("Yup, need to take care of that one of these days.")
My Preferences for "External Editors" (in my case Photoshop Elements 4.0) is set as: File Format: TIFF; Color Space: sRGB; Bit Depth: 16 Bits/component; Compression: ZIP.
When I right-click on a file, and choose "Edit in Photoshop Elements 4.0.app", and pick Edit a Copy from the dialog box, the new file that is created and passed over to PE is a .JPG file not a .TIF file.
I get the feeling that the functionality to create a TIFF, or a PSD, only works if my original image is RAW or DNG. But perhaps I am overlooking something???
Life would be a lot easier if I could send the file to PE as a TIFF. At present, as a workaround, I tell LR to edit the original (so it doesn't create a copy), immediately Save-As in PE as a TIFF so I don't overwrite the original, and then when I'm done editing in PE, save the results (still TIFF). Once back in LR, I have to import the new file.
Any Thoughts?

Olympus E-P1: Why DNG files from DNG-Converter, Lightroom or CameraRaw are invalid ?

Hello from Spain:
I've got a Olympus Pen E-P1.
I work with DNG Converter 5.5, Lightroom 2.5, CameraRaw 5.5, Photoshop CS4 with my *.ORF files with no problems, and I can convert ORF in DNG with those software smooth, but...
I can't open those DNG files with DNG Profile Editor. It display a error message "Could not open the selected image. Note that the selected image must be a valid DNG color image".
I'm trying to create a E-P1 DNG Profile using ColorChecker Passport. When I try to import a DNG file displays a similar error message "Can't open the file. Is a invalid DNG file".
What is occurring about DNG files from E-P1's ORF?.
Thank you,
Juanlu.

Hi, Beat:
Thanks for your offer.
Here you are a link to _B101110.ORF from my E-P1 for anyone who wants to try.

System or program crashes when converting from NEF to DNG

Hello Adobe.
First off, I love your software.
Second, this is my concern. You guys are pushing DNG as the go to raw format. That would be great if it worked good, but it doesn't.
First, when I convert from my Nikon NEF format (Nikon D7100) it chugs along just fine, then suddenly crashes either the program or my system after converting 50-100 or so images.
I have tried everything from downloading your software again, to turning off everything other then what is needed to do the conversion.
Of course I have the latest DNG utility/plug in/drivers from your website.
Second, the DNG images open much slower then my NEF images. Plus when I view them in Windoze file system view and want to see the photos in extra large icons, it renders the images very slowly.
My system is Windoze 8.1 updated always, Photoshop CC latest and greatest (I'm in the rental program), Bridge and Lightroom.
I have tried to use bridge and lightroom to do the conversion, even a separate utility and the crashing still happens. All these are up to date.
My system has an i7 Intel processor, 16 gb of Kingston ram, an ASUS P8Z77 MPRO mother board and a good stable power supply.
No other software crashes my system like converting from NEF to DNG.
What I do notice is my CPU fan goes into high RPM's and I am wondering if the CPU is overheating causing this.
If that is the case, then it would seem to me the conversion software is taxing the system far more then it should since my system is no slouch and while it isn't the latest and greatest, I would consider it to be in the top 20%,
it should be able to handle the conversion with no problem.
Are you aware of problems with the DNG software and or file format?
Is their any information I could forward to you to help solve the problem?

Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG) - Adobe
helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/digital-negative.html
DNG is a publicly available archival format for storing camera raw files. Adobe provides Adobe DNG Converter, a free utility that converts files from more than ...
That is off the net, therefore, Adobe looks at DNG as part of Adobe Photoshop, which it is if a person chooses to convert.
My issue has to do with it crashing, both my system and software.
I assume if people here are using it, then they can advise me if they are having similar problems.
I have also written Adobe directly several times over the last month and have yet to receive a response.
I apologize that I posted here, but since I consider DNG an integral part of Photoshop, then I think it is appropriate here.
I was also not aware of a DNG forum, if one exists.
Thank you for your assistance.

Print the reviewer the original document the course content
was initially built from if they want it in print format. To expect
a flash SWF to print the same way as a Microsoft Word document way
is just stupid, think of the SWF's timeline and number of
movieclips (and movieclips within movieclips) and how much
information can be contained within it and how it might not always
be in a linear format (eg. like a Word Doc) = your answer which is

Speedgrade and the Cinema DNG from Magic Lantern

Hi guys !
I was really thrilled yesterday when i saw that speedgrade CC 2014 can now read the Cinema DNG files from 5D Mark III & Magic Lantern... But i did a few tests today and would like to know what you're thinking of these : I just did a few tests with Speedgrade CC 2014 and i think there is still a decoding problem in it
Here is what i get when i put my DNGs in After Effects :
Before any correction :
After correction :
And here is what i get in Speedgrade :
Before any correction :
After correction :
Any idea why ? The white balance is wrong and i can't correct it... The highlights seems to be wrong too...

That is a regular behaviour in SG, please have a look here: https://forums.adobe.com/message/5291090#5291090#5291090 and BMD Cinema Camera RAW Files Import Issues | Adobe Community
Also you could create a .look which white balance the cDNG, or try the Ikonoskope A-Cam matrix presets. That's into Timeline - Color Space Default.
Thanks,

Converting Raw files to DNG

When I open RAW files in Photoshop CS4, I can save them as a DNG file, however when I try to use the DNG 5.6 converter to do the conversion, it will not recognize the RAW files. According the the Adobe website, the current verion of DNG converter is supposed to recognize my CR2 files, but in it actually does not.

function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}

When you convert the raw in DNG in the ACR dialog then you are not using the newest DNG converter; you have been using that, which came with your ACR. Start the DNG converter on its own (by double-clicking on the file name,..) or drop a file on its file name with Explorer, and try if that DNG is all right.
Relating the unusable DNG file: can you upload it somewhere? If you don't have web space, use yousendit.com and post the URL for the downloading here (the receiver's and sender's email address may be fictious).
