Lightroom pictures blurred in Library module - Rendering: Larger Preview...?

I am using the latest version of Lightroom running on a system using Vista Ultimate 64bit OS, an Intel Core i7 processor, 12 Gb of ram and two nVidia GTX295 video cards. I problem that I am having is in the Library module, where, when I move from picture to picture, some pictures, at random, will load blurred. The caption, in the lower center of the picture starts with "Loading from Previews" then goes to "Rendering: Larger Preview," and it stays there. I can move to another picture which may or may not load properly. This issue does not seem to affect the Develop module; pictures which load blurred in the library mode are crisp and clear in the Design module.
I did not have this problem running Windows XP!
Any suggestions to address this issue?
p.s. I have read a previous thread which suggested that deleting the preference file might be a solution. I have done this, without success!

My suggestions would be to backup and check the integrity of your catalog, to render standard previews for all images, and if necessary to delete the previews file and directory.

Rendering: Larger Preview.... Stalls in Library Module.

I am running Lightroom 2.4 on a Windows Vista system. I have found recently that when I use the library module and attempt to zoom in on a picture in that module the full size picture on screen reverts to a highly pixalated view (presumably the embeded low res jpeg from the Nikon RAW file) and I get the message "Rendering: Larger Preview..." and nothing at all happens. If I then select the develop module the picture renders correctly, if following this I select the library module again all used to be well but now I get the message "Rendering:Develop..." and again nothing happening.
Has anyone encountered this problem and discovered a solution?

John
Thanks for the input. The problem certainly happens then but I am getting
it other times as well. I found some advice on the forum about the problem
which suggests it is associated with MS Vista's complex file access
permision system. It appears you have to give all users read write and
execute permission on all your Lightroom files. I am trying that to see if
it solves the problem.
Thanks again

Images are blurred in Library module

I am having some new issues when viewing images in the Library module. I have been using LR for quite sometime and this is the first time. I saw a thread somewhere here that maybe this might be a bug. Is that correct. Let me walk you through some of the chronological process.
1-I was viewing RAW images in the Library module and noticed the images were trying to stay in focus. Then since that time the images have been rather soft, blurred.
2-I Optimized the Catalog, and changed the "preview settings". But it didn't not make any improvement.
3- I viewed the same images using Image Browser just for a comparison, and I was amazed how sharp the images were compared to LR. Keep in mind that I have never experienced this shooting RAW. I am aware that RAW images have imbedded JPG Preview images, but this is not the case
4- I am not editing, or making any changes, so need to suggest to view the images in the Develop module. All I'm doing at this time is to select my best shots.
5- However, I noticed something interesting. The images that are displayed blurred, were shot with my G9 camera. But if I view other RAW images shots with my 40D, and even my old D60 they are not blurred at all.
I am wondering if this anomaly has any connection between the G9 and LR? I'm very frustrated since I have deleted some images based of how they were displayed,but now I'm wondering if they were good shots and they were displayed blurred.
Any suggestion

There's nothing wrong with posting a question to multiple forums. I was trying to show that at the Canon forum you stated LR was initially working properly, and sometime later the same images appeared blurry. This is an indication that something changed in your system, not an issue with LR’s capabilities:
-Corrupted LR preferences file
-LR application, corrupted
-System Virus
-Low hard drive space
-Failing hard drive
-System memory issues (insufficient memory, failing memory)
-Camera problem (not likely)
The problems logging into the Adobe LR forum is another indication that you may have one or more of the above system issues.
There is an issue concerning LR not applying sharpening and noise reduction to images in the Library module, except at very high ISO settings:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/889490?tstart=120
I doubt this is the "blurring" you describe in the Library module, since your 40D and older 60D camera images are not blurred. You would also be able to see 'Sharpening' and 'Noise Reduction' applied in the Develop module at 'Fit' image view size. You stated that you see no difference.
As you can see there are numerous things that could be causing your problem. I suggest trying the suggestions I provided in my last reply as a good starting point to finding and "fixing" the source of the problem.

Specific Problem with Library Module 1:1 Preview Loading

Hi everyone. I've spent hours searching Google & forums for specific tips to try but I've found nothing that solved my problem. I have a very specific problem loading 1:1 previews in Lightroom 3.3 while zoomed to 1:1.
When I initially import a shoot (usually 3000 to 6000 images), I always render 1:1 previews during import. My understanding is that this activity writes full-sized previews to the "Previews" folder, but I also have observed that .DAT files are created in the "Camera Raw Cache" folder. I have my Lightroom Previews folder and my Adobe Camera Raw Cache folder on the **same** solid-state hard disk, which is dedicated to Lightroom.
When I browse these newly-imported images in the Library module in Loupe view at 1:1 zoom, it's very zippy and fast to switch between images. The images load without any message at a lower resolution, and then "snap" to full resolution after 0.25 to 0.5 seconds. No "Loading" message appears.
However, once the previews have "sat around for a while", even if they are still supposedly available in the Previews folder, loading the image at 1:1 in Loupe as described takes 3-5 seconds. Shortly after going to an image, the message "Loading..." is displayed (it doesn't say where from), and 3-5 seconds later, the full res image appears.
This has nothing to do with changes to image settings requiring re-rendering of the preview. These are images that I've imported but haven't browsed in a while. I know that the previews are valid, because I can go to "Library > Previews > Render 1:1 Previews", and the task will complete within 20 or 30 seconds without re-rendering any photos after examining them and apparently finding that there are still valid 1:1 previews for all 4000 of them. After doing this "re-render," the slow loading behavior is the same as before, because the re-render process always completes without actually updating the previews that it found are already there and presumably decided were still valid. Discarding previews by "Library > Previews > Discard 1:1 Previews" and then trying to re-render them also does nothing, because LR3 apparently doesn't immediately delete the discarded previews, so they are picked back up again As-Is by the re-rendering process.
If I had to guess at the reason for this behavior based on the symptoms, I would say that it seems like Lightroom is forcing itself to re-render 1:1 previews upon browsing to images that are older than a certain age (very possibly the same "30 days" after which the 1:1 previews are supposed to be discarded).
Now, I've also observed that deleting the DAT files in the Camera Raw Cache folder has no adverse impact on load speed (which is what I would have expected to see if LR3 was looking for and loading images from this cache instead of the Previews folder).
What this means to me is that once the image previews reach this "outdated" state, I can't get fast 1:1 browsing performance in Loupe with any reliable procedure other than manually deleting [in Windows Explorer] the entire Preview folder and then re-rendering the 1:1 previews for this shoot. This is of course terribly inconvenient when there are recent previews that I want to save.
Note: I do not have any slowness under any circumstance when browsing at "Zoom to Fit". This is only a problem when I'm browsing at 1:1 zoom (like when I'm comparing sharpness between a set of photos).
Note: For images with the slow behavior described, once the image has been loaded once at 1:1 zoom, it's henceforth snappy again when returning to the image (as if Lightroom was once again accepting the Preview file as valid).
So, here's a summary:
Previews (X:\Lightroom Catalog Previews\) and Camera Raw Cache (X:\Lightroom Cache\) are on same, dedicated, fast drive
1:1 previews from recently-imported files load full-res at 1:1 zoom in less than 1/2 second.
Older 1:1 previews take 3-5 seconds to load full-res at 1:1 zoom, even though the previews are supposedly being loaded from still-valid 1:1 previews in the Previews folder.
I'm really tired, so i hope this makes sense. I don't see how this could be a hardware problem, because I get good performance with recently-imported images. I'm running LR3.3 on Win 7 Pro x64 with 8 GB of RAM and a 2.4 GHz Intel Core2 Quad CPU. Never had LR3 beta installed - upgraded to 3.0 from the last 2.X version. After upgrading, in response to this exact issue, I deleted my entire previews folder and rebuilt, but I continue to have the exact same problem on every shoot that I import. It's most noticeable on the large shoots, because I end up having to browse at 1:1 zoom to compare a set of similar images.
Only workaround I've found: in Windows Explorer, manually delete the Previews folder. Return to Lightroom and rebuild 1:1 previews. This forces the previews to be rebuilt for all images.
Another possible workaround I am going to experiment with: setting the Previews to "Do Not Discard", in case the defualt "Discard after 30 days" that I've used is causing or contributing to the problem. If Lightroom is actually discarding the images after 30 days but forgetting that it had discarded them when asked to re-render 1:1's, maybe setting to "Do not discard" will bandage that problem by never discarding them to begin with.
All right, I'm falling asleep at the keyboard. I'm afraid to add more details as they may become incoherent. Hope to hear some good news, as fixing this problem would make my LR3 experience so much more pleasant.
Can anyone assist with this problem?

The behaviour after previews have been around for a while (i.e. previews for unedited images) is not normal. There have been a few other reports of similar behaviour, but no real clues as to why it happens.
Yes - this is my problem. Previews should still be valid, and "Library > Previews > Render 1:1 Previews" says the images are still valid, but then Loupe rebuilds them anyways.

If everything was working correctly, the setting for discard shouldn't have any effect on whether the previews go stale or not. ...
My understanding is that if everything were working as intended, the "setting for discard" that I was referring to (Edit > Catalog Settings > File Handling > "Automatically Discard 1:1 Previews") should be the sole determinant of whether 1:1 previews must be rebuilt for images with unmodified settings.
For example, if I import an image and render a 1:1 preview, and if I set the "Auto Discard 1:1" setting to "30 Days", and if I make no changes to the image's settings, then I would expect that the image should render quickly (under 1/2 second) at 1:1 zoom in Loupe view for the next 30 days. On the 31st day, I would expect the image to take longer to load as a new 1:1 preview was rendered and stored, and then I would expect this new preview to be retained for another 30 days.
I would furthermore expect that the 30-day counter would be reset every time the image was re-rendered (i.e. if I go into Develop and change something).
To a certain extent, this is functioning correctly on my system. When I go to one of these "problem images" that inexplicably load slowly, returning to them subsequently is quick. I think my problem is just, as Rob suggested, that some part of Lightroom's "brain" has wacky ideas about whether an up-to-date 1:1 preview exists or not.
If I choose to "Never" automatically discard 1:1 previews (which is what I just switched to), then I should "Never" see unmodified images taking 3-5 seconds to "Load" at 1:1 zoom in Loupe.
Since I just nuked my Previews folder again last night and re-rendered 1:1's overnight for a 3000 image shoot, it might be a while before I start encountering this bug again. I will certainly post any further related experiences here and will keep checking for anyone who has further insight.

Thanks for pointing this out. I will upgrade to 3.4RC - at least then I will be able to force a rebuild of previews from one shoot without having to manually delete the previews for my entire catalog. I'll no longer have to throw out all the food in the refrigerator just because something smells funny.

The DAT files are created at the same time as Library previews. However, they are only used in Develop module.
Yes, I definitely agree with this (although, the Cache is probably also used while rendering new previews after "Quick Develop" changes in the Library module....). I posted my observations to this effect just in case someone else wondered the same thing I did. It is clear that the DAT files get written every time a preview is rendered for RAW file. Rob, now that I'm thinking with a clearer mind, I think the only thing these Cached files are used for is if you "return" to recently rendered settings in Develop or Quick Develop - then, that particular combination of settings yields a match in the cache, and LR loads the image from the Cache into Previews and onto the screen. It is logical that the cache wouldn't help us when going to new settings, because the new settings would create a partially or completely different rendering than any other combination of settings. Adobe may be going to more advanced levels of "reusability" than this, but I'm sure this is the general state of things.
You may want to open back up write access to that Cache folder...
Thanks, Rob & Ian!
So, my question, or bug report, still remains for now - why am I biting into a bag of chips marked "Fresh" and finding them Stale? And why does it say "Paper Jam" when there is no paper jam?

Lightroom 3 Large previews are soft...

Last Year I posted on this forum how on my Mac with Lightroom 3 I was getting soft previews of photo's, well here we are a year later and I still cant use lightroom in my workflow because of this soft preview issue, It's pissing me off to no end.
When viewing my 5D mkII raw files...and other camera model raw files, in the Library & Develop modules, the large preview image in both modules gives a slightly blurry rendering of the photo, if I zoom to 100% I can see the file's actuall sharpness, but I need to be able to run through thousands of files from a shoot and quickly pick out the sharp images from the misfocused one's, which is impossible with this issue.
So now a year later I'm inquiring again to you on this forum and Adobe technicians to help me resolve this issue once and for all.
P.S. For the record, this issue has been here from the day I installed LR3.
My hardware: 2009 Mac Pro with 12GB of Ram, Eizo CE240W 24" Display at 1920X1200.
From what I gather this is a known issue, but reading the below link/posts, I've not found a solution… http://forums.adobe.com/message/3009930#3009930
Thanks, looking forward to your thoughts.

Hi, I have exactly the same issue in LR3, this was not happening in previous version of LR.
When I import picture into LR, I also build "standart previews", which leads to slight soft preview when reviewing picture in the library module (going to the develop module does not help here). Zooming to 100%, waiting for the full rendering then zooming back solve the issue for the current photo. This seems to happen on random pictures since even if I worked on the picture, viewed it at 100% in a previous Lightroom session, it just render it blurry.
Here is a sample showing the issue, the first link show a screenshot just before I zoom at 100%, the second link, just after:
Screen shot before zoom
Screen shot after zoom
It also happen with more modest picture size on the screen (when all panels are shown).
So, it seems like there is a bug somewhere in LR preview rendering.
Cheers,
Philippe.
Edit: open links in new browser tab or windows: the image viewer of the Adobe forums show only a reduced version of the screenshots behind the previous links.

Develop module & library module aren't matching

When I am editing, my photos look how I want them to in the develop module, but when I switch over to the library they look different. Some photos it doesn't apply the clarity, highlights, noise reduction, or sharpening. I haven't had this problem up until a month or two ago. It used to be the same between the two modules and I no problems editing. Now it's a pain to edit because I have to switch to the Library to see what the image is really looking like, go back to develop to try and change it, but cant end up getting it to look how I want. Images look the same zoomed in, but not in normal view. I am on Windows, Lightroom 3.6. I have tried reupdating the software, downloading an older version. also updated my video driver, and nothing helped. trying to avoid reinstalling all of lightroom because I do not want to lose any previewly modified images.
first one is the view from develop. you can tell its a lot more noisey.
second picture is from the library. it's a lot more smooth.
so basically my images aren't being shown correctly. I have looked through a lot of discussions on here and no one seems to have an answer...please help me! editing should be fun, not frustrating.

Rivosyke wrote:
Thanks for the response. This appears to be more the issue with image that is exported is using the algorithm for the library module as opposed to the changes made using the develop module. The histograms are different when switching between the two modules (Library/Develop) for the same image.
Camera: D7100
Image Type: RAW
ISO: 3200
Bingo! You're using an ISO 3200 image with fairly high sharpening settings, which is going to increase noise in the image. If you view the image at 1:1 in the Develop module the noise should very visible. The Develop module and Library module 1:1 previews should both show the noise and look very close to each other. The reason why less than 1:1 Zoom previews (i.e. Fit, Fill, 1:4) and histograms look different is explained in my reply #29 under this heading MORE THAN YOU PROBABLY NEED TO KNOW (For Techno Geeks & Nerds Only). The Export module uses the same Bicubic algorithm as the Library module, which is why the Library module's preview is more accurate than the Develop module. Virtually all image editors (not just LR) use the same Bicubic resizing algorithms and will produce the same discrepancy when compared to LR's Develop module preview.
Fortunately there is a very easy solution to this issue. Unfortunately many people prefer to complain, say it is a LR "bug," and don't listen further to suggestions on "fixing" the issue. If you fall into the latter camp don't bother reading further! Sorry if this sounds crass and cynical, but I can only provide advice. Whether you believe me and try it is your decision! It works for me using five different camera models with both raw and JPEG image files.
High ISO and/or High Sharpening Preview Discrepancy Fix
1) Set Develop module to 1:1 Zoom View.
2) a. Adjust Sharpening panel settings for desired look.
b. With noisy images it's best to keep the Detail setting no higher than 35.
c. Try using the Masking slider to reduce noise in even toned areas.
3) Increase Detail panel Color setting until the color noise is barely visible.
4) If there is still some residual color noise try increasing the Color detail setting to ~80.
4) Increase the Detail panel Luminance setting until noise is barely visible or gone.
5) If the image has lost significant sharpness try increasing the Luminance Detail setting to ~80.
6) If necessary go back to steps # 2-5 and make small adjustments to the Sharpening and NR settings.
Now compare the Develop and Library previews at Fit view or better yet at 1:8, 1:4, or 1:3. They should look very close to each other with the Develop preview very slightly sharper. Full-size and reduced size Exports should look very close to what you see in the Develop module. When Resizing images don't forget to add Export Output Sharpening. When images are Resized the Output Sharpening setting has more influence on image sharpness than the LR Develop Sharpening settings. For most images the Screen Standard setting should produce crisp images. If you want more try the High setting. I generally find the Screen Low setting produces the most natural look. YMMV dependent on lens performance, camera shake, focus issues, or simply poor lighting (cloudy, foggy, etc.).

Photo count wrong in library module

I Have wrong photo count on all my catalogs in the Lightroom 3 in the library module. It always show 0 count on the top level folders. This creates problem on photo search. I have tried all resources and could not find a solution. Please help!

I couldn't believe it's that easy. It should really be the default setting.
Thanks a million.

When I attempt to apply a lens profile in the Develop module the only choices are for the Fujifilm X100/S/T even though in the Library module the EXIF data correctly shows the camera as the X-T1 and the precise lens used to take the picture. How do I get

When I attempt to apply a lens profile in the Develop module the only choices are for the Fujifilm X100/S/T even though in the Library module the EXIF data correctly shows the camera as the X-T1 and the precise lens used to take the picture. How do I get the right profile available?

First, the required profile needs to be present. LR 5.4 supports the X-T1 in terms of understanding its Raw format, but will not come with a profile for every lens which can be mounted onto that.
A profile is made for each specific lens, as mounted on a certain camera. It can also be used with pictures taken on a different (reasonably similar) camera body than the one originally used during profiling. This is subject to the sensor format: you can employ a given lens profile made for full frame, on an image from a crop sensor behind the same lens - but not vice versa.
Next, the image type needs to correspond to the image type which has been built into the profile: Raw, or non-Raw.
Lightroom offers only profiles of the right type for the image(s) concerned. There are many more provided for correcting camera Raw, than for correcting camera JPG. That is also the case with additional profiles, e.g. those accessed via the Adobe lens profile downloader utility.
Finally, in the event that there simply is no profile out there for a given lens, it is not particularly difficult (though a little tedious) for the end user to generate one, using a further Adobe utility which is downloadable as a package, including a range of checkerboard calibration targets, each of which needs to be printed at a stated physical size.

Lightroom 3 not creating folders in Library module

Normally a folder corresponding to the directory I imported my images from is added to the FOLDERS bar in the LIBRARY module.
I didn't realize until today, when I tried to go back to some older photos, that since the beginning of August LR has not been creating a folder with each import. The only way to navigate to those photos is using CATALOG -> ALL PHOTOGRAPHS.
I tried adding a folder with the "+" but that just tries to import photos that are already in my catalog.
Is there a setting that changed? Is this a bug?
Thanks,
-Andy

Ah, well, that makes sense. If you are "adding" them, then the images themselves are merely being referenced, and LR will not create new folders for them, but use the folders you already have them in. So in order for them to be in the correct format, you'd have to have them in the correct location you want them referenced as.
If you do, indeed have them in the proper format as you listed, then your most likely problem is you are selecting only the bottom layer, i.e, the final month folder for import.
If you want the entire import path to show up, I believe you have to select the top level one, and use "include subdirectores" to let it find them below that.
This will, of course, scan all of your other folders under there, and most likely identify lots and lots of duplicates, which it will then ignore. But it will take a bit longer for the software to relalize it already has them and uncheck the ones it thinks it knows about.
From my point of view, doing something similar, I use "move" instead to get it right without having to scan all the potential duplicates. It doesn't take much more time if the images are on the same disk already. Moving between disks adds time, but on the same disk it doesn't (effectively, anyway). It also means that the images get put into the date/format under my top level project automatically, I don't have to create the original structure to begin with. I just load them all into one directory on the same disk, hit import, select the top level project they go into, and let it organize by date. It displays on the large import window what directories it will be creating and how many images will go in each one.
Anyway, I think that should give you the right ideas!
Cheers!

Email Photo option Greyed out in Loupe View in Library Module on Mac in Lightroom 5.7.1

In Lightroom 5.7.1 on Mac OX X Yosemite, when in the Library module, in Grid View the option to Email photo is available; however, when in the Loupe View, the Email Photo menu option is greyed out. I have seen this question posted on the web and there are no answers anywhere. Please address this issue as soon as possible since this appears to bug.

Hey Scott,
After expermienting extensively (well relatively speaking), I found that hardware wise, there needs to be a AC3 decoder on the end where the audio is being sent. And without that chip there the AC3 option won't work weather or not you can get it showing. Our interfaces don't have this AC3 option so theoretically speaking we would have to create/purchase an AC3 to Analogue converter, and take the outs to our monitors/inputs of our interfaces. There seems to be no easy hardware or software work around, because even if the software workaround were to get the AC3 option available it seems that it sends the AC3 option out over the SPDIF/ADAT connection meaning the software didn't really convert it it just made it possible to send the signal. So I didn't have any luck. In the end it seems you need a AC3 decoder/DA converter to 5.1 out which they sell but not at a reasonable price. Hope I was of "informative" assistance, if not any actual help towards solving the problem.

My catalog pictures render fine in the Library module but will not render in the Develop module. I get a blue box with a white X across it in the window where the picture should render. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Developer Module only shows blue square with a white cross, images are displayed in the library ok but not im developer Module

My photos look terrible in the library module after editing in the develop module. They look nothing alike. How do I solve this issue? Using Lightroom 5.

anyone have any ideas? The only way I can get around this is export the photo back into iPhoto and try to edit out the mess.

The waves you are seeing on your monitor must be more pronounced than what I'm seeing in the posted screenshots. The Library module uses Adobe RGB AND 8-bit JPEG preview images, which can cause banding in fine gradient areas (compared to Develop view), but I'm not seeing a huge difference in your screenshots. Here's a screen shot with my non-wide gamut monitor calibration profile. If my screenshot shows less banding than what you are seeing with the original images it indicates a monitor profile issue as described by twenty-one. A hardware calibrated monitor is recommended to prevent these types of issues.
The Library image also appears lighter in the shadow area, which probably indicates more Luminance NR needs to be applied or perhaps less sharpening. Try it and see if that helps with the issue.

LR 4 Library Module Applying Random Changes

Hi,
I have been using LR for a while and randomly started having an odd problem. After importing some images I was flipping through them in the Library Module and the loading animation was coming up across the bottom. After the loading animation stops, the colours willsaturate or the exposure will change slightly. If I go to the develop module, the history only includes the import and no sliders have been repositioned. Please check out the before/after pictures for clarification (hard to notice but the table cloth changes hue and saturation). I have default settings on quick develop, so it's not that. If anyone has any idea what is going on please let me know what to do to stop this!

Thanks in advance!

Perfectly normal behavior for Lightroom.
When the photo first appears, it is showing the embedded JPG preview. Then, a few seconds to a few minutes later, Lightroom renders the RAW photo, and the colors may indeed be different. There is no way to turn this off.
