Merge to HDR Pro Issue

Hello all, I'm going to give you as much information about this as possible in the first instance so we don't have to play post tag. In using Merge to HDR Pro in CS5, the process will allow me to pick the images I wish to use and being the process for about 15-20 seconds before displaying the message "The command "<unknown>" is not currently available. Once I click "ok" on the dialog box, the image disappears and I'm left with nothing. I am running 64-bit CS5 and Windows 7. 580 GB free of hard drive space and 6.0 GB of RAM with a AMD 640 processor 3.00 GHz. I can't remember if I have previously used HDR Pro on this particular system or not but know I did on CS4 on my laptop, any other time I had taken a single image and used plug-ins to get HDR like images. I've checked forum after forum and figure if anyone is going to know it would be here.

Some weeks ago.
A number of people have reported the updater not "seeing" the 12.0.4 release for them. I'm not sure anyone's gotten to the root cause of why.
You can explicitly update from here:

(for English look near the top of the second section, entitled just "Version CS5")

Uncaught Javascript Exception during create file phase of Merge to HDR Pro.

Provide a descriptive title that includes your OS information:
I am trying to create an HDR file from several large merged panoramas, and everything seems to go very well whichever options I select until the point comes when photoshop tries to create the final file. The individual layers of the HDR are 40188x6848 and saved as PSB files, when loaded they fill the entire 8Gb of memory in my machine.
I am using Windows Vista 64, my graphics card is unsupported and so turned off, I have photoshop setup to use 3 scratch disks, and it appears to be using around 40Gb on the first one and none on others.
Provide concise, step-by-step details on how to reproduce the issue you are seeing.
Select File > Automate > Merge to HDR Pro
Select the 5 HDR layer files, check attempt to automatically align layers
Make a cup of tea, you're in for a wait.
Set the EV levels of the files
Select any options you want from the next panel, I've tried most of them by now.
Sit back and wait for the following screen:
Provide a description of the "Expected Result":
Photoshop should have brought up a file containing the merged images, which I could then save to disk.

If anyone wants the source images let me know and I'll upload them somewhere, though that process will take a couple of days because they're not small.

Hi Martin,
Per my private message, the "uncaught JavaScript" exception is something we've seen and have yet to determine a cause or solution.
Would you please try the following.
• Do you have following Preferences > Interface settings ON? If they're OFF, does it work if you turn them on?
   - Open Documents as Tabs
   - Enable Floating Document Window Docking
• Does Merge to HDR work for you at all with smaller files (such as those in the sample set inside the application folder for CS5)?
• Do other scripts work for you, specifically...
   - File > Scripts > Load Files into Stack... ?
   - File > Automate > Photomerge...?
• Have you tried restarting with deleted preferences? http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-74aaa.h tml
The HDR screen image preview going black is a known issue related to low-system memory conditions that we have been working on a solution for.
In the meantime, the workaround would be to lower Photoshop's memory usage from your current (72%) down to as low as (50%).
Purging memory may help: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-748aa.h tml
What was the "entirely new error message"? And is the Uncaught Exception the "standard" message?
Thank,
Meredith

CC 2014 Merge to HDR Pro stalls before completing

I have been using the Merge to HDR Pro command for the last couple of days without issue. This morning it has stopped working - the files are loaded into Layers and the alignment process begins but then the script cancels, leaving me with the stack of Layers in a 16Bit document:
I've checked the following so far:
- Quit/ Restart Photoshop and Bridge
- Deleted the Photoshop Settings file on next launch
- Tried an alternate batch of brackets
- Selected fewer / more images from sequence to batch merge
- Ran the script from File > Automate menu instead
Any ideas why this has started to happen ?
Edit: The script seems to work ok if I process .psd versions of the files instead of the .NEFs ...

As far as I know the Abobe Bridge bridge is messed up these days for there is one Adobe bridge cc and two Photoshop CC and CC 2014 Mac can run two versions of Photoshop at once windows can not how the different bridge interfaces work I don't know. Bridge tools are set up with Bridge Startup Scripts. On Windows Bridge CC 64bit and Bridge CC 32Bit version both seen to use the start up scripts setup for the 32bit Bridge Bridge CC 64bit does not see what is in the CC 64Bits startup scripts folder. There are also problems on windows system registry for Photoshop shell commands Open and Edit. I do not use the Bridge often. Just use it to edit metadata and syncing batches of RAW File setting. I do not use Photoshop from the Bridge. But seem to be able to For I put Startup scripts in the 32bit location and fixed my windows registry keys for Phoroshop.exe....

CS6 - Merge to HDR Pro fails to complete

I'm running Win 7, 32-bit and just picked up LR 4.1 and CS6. I've updated everything to the latest versions. I'm shooting with a Nikon D800.
I'm trying to merge 7 pictures using Merge to HDR Pro. I've tried this using raw files (NEF) and converted JPG files. I select the 7 files, PS comes up with the first picture showing. It starts to process the second picture and the filename changes to something like Untitled_HDR1. After a few seconds, that picture goes away and nothing else happens.
Have I got my settings screwed up?

Although you are on Win7 32-bit, this may apply to your issue.
There are some 32-bit XP-specific issues we're addressing before shipping that are related to memory.
I'm pretty sure that's the issue you're running into. I'm sorry for the trouble it's causing you.
Here are some suggestions to work around the issue. In the meantime, we'll work on helping XP-32 & Photoshop play nicely.
Try a different memory setting (65%-ish. Try to give Photoshop ~1G and leave the rest to the system). Restart.
Quit unnecessary applications.
Try quitting Bridge and running Merge to HDR from File > Automate > Merge to HDR
Other things to test out in the Performance Preference panel
         • Try a larger or the largest Tile Size - you've got it set to smallest. Not sure which is better for this case.         • Try lowering History States to 5. Other, less likely, suspects:
Corrupt prefs: Reset preference file: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4209421#4209421
Same-named drive: Be sure there is no other directory is named identically to a folder in the Photoshop app path.
Conflict with "Open Documents as Tabs = OFF" Prefrence (Interface) setting.
Please let us know what ends up working best for your system.
Thanks,
Meredith
Also, if Remove Ghosts = ON, it sometimes selects an extreme exposure as its base image (noted by green frame around the thumbnail in the dialog). Try selecting a different base image - just click on a different thumbnail.
Are you still having issues after updating (Photoshop: Help > Updates...) ?
Do any of these solve the problem for you?

CS5 Merge To HDR Pro hangs Photoshop (Win 7, 64-bit)

Hi,
I've had Photoshop CS5 Extended for about 2 weeks. I'm using the 64 bit version with Windows 7 64 bit. So far it's been working ok but I'm now getting an issue with 'Merge to HDR Pro'. Once I've entered my settings and clicked 'ok' Photoshop stops responding. I have to start the 'Task Manager' and force quit Photoshop.
Is this a common issue or am I the only one whose getting it? Is there a solution?
Thanks

Thanks for your response.
In answer to your question I'm not entirely sure. My machine doesn't crash. When I go to Automate/Merge to HDR Pro I can browse to my files, choose them and alter the settings in the HDR Pro window until my image looks the way I want it to. But when I click 'OK' the process of generating the HDR file seems to begin then stop. I can see my original images in the layer stack inside Photoshop and an empty layer at the bottom of the stack called 'Merge to HDR Pro'. It doesn't get any further than that. The only thing I can do is go to my Task Manager, where Photoshop will be listed as 'Not Responding'. I use RAW files from my Canon 40D.
I can't give you very precise details about my system because I had it custom built and I'm not very good with technical stuff. I can tell you that it is a 64 bit machine with a 120Gb solid state primary HD running Windows 7 64bit, and 2 1Tb secondary drives. It currently has 6Gb RAM. The motherboard is overclocked. My gfx card is an Nvidia GeForce GTX 295.
Thanks again.

Merge to HDR Pro not working

I select images in Lightroom 5 and then select Merge in HDR Pro. The images go to Photoshop (CC), but when the HDR dialog opens, the imaage area is black. I also have PS CS6 and it works correctly there. Is this a bug in CC?

BTW I'm using a Macbook Pro Retina OS X 10.8.5
I uninstalled PS and reinstalled it. Now it works ok. However, when I did the upgrade to PS 14.1.2 it reverted back to it's old way.
It's a bug in the software for me. I've unistalled and reinstalled again and won't do an upgrade untill Adobe addresses the issue.

Merge to HDR Pro, Photoshop CS5 Mac

Hello,
I'm using Photoshop CS5 Mac. When I select "File>Automate>Merge to HDR Pro…>" then Browse to "Adobe Photoshop CS5>Samples>Merge to HDR" and select the 4 jpg images, Photoshop merges the images and opens a window that says Merge to HDR (xx%) at the top. Everything seems fine except the thumbnail images across the bottom are cropped off, their names and check box's aren't visible, and both the Cancel & Ok buttons are missing.
If I grab the window expansion in the lower right corner I can change the aspect of the window but the issues I'm having with the view do not change. I can hit return and the system will generate the HDR image. Also if I select "About Merge to HDR" when the Merge to HDR window is open nothing happens.
Can someone tell me if there is a setting I need to change in order to get the window to view correctly or is this a coding bug? I'm using an early intel iMac 17" with and additional Mac 20" monitor attached. Mac OS 10.6.4, Photoshop 12.0 x32. The iMac is set to 1440x900 and the Cinema Display is set to 1680x1050.
Thanks for your time.

Here is the official KnowledgeBase document for the issue. Also, feel free to look at some of the other forum threads covering this (search: HDR OK Cancel)
Feedback on this workaround is appreciated.

Merge to HDR Pro and Camera Raw stop working...

I have been noticing for the past few days that two aspects of PS CS6 completely stop working. Those are Merge to HDR Pro and Camera Raw 7.0. What happens is I can see a photo yet no changes take place no matter what I change, I try zooming, I try changing settings, nothing at all changes. At one point Merge to HDR Pro would not let me cancel or click okay to do anything. To solve this problem I must reboot PS. Merge to HDR Pro this problem keeps happening, with Camera Raw I have seen this issue twice so far.
I am running Windows XP (SP3).

Auto-align Layers and Merge to HDR Pro crashes

Hi,
Has anybody else experienced crashes with Merge to HDR Pro or Auto-align Layers? I was trying to use Merge to HDR Pro from Lightroom and was experiencing crashes every time after it had opened all of the images and merged them into a single document (but before the HDR Pro dialog box had come up).
I've tested this further with opening each image individually and then trying to merge them as well as via Bridge and always get the same result.
I had then decided to try layering the images and blend them to create my HDR image and that's when I found that Auto-align Layers was crashing as well. This leads me to believe that it's actually the auto-align functionality that's causing the crash rather than Merge to HDR Pro as I'm pretty sure that the merge functionality performs an auto-align as part of its steps.
Any suggestions on how to fix this? I'm wondering if I may have to completely remove Photoshop. I can do this if necessary but if there's some other way to fix this I'd rather try that first.

Okay, solved my own problem. I bit the bullet and did do a reinstall. I'd remembered that one of the previous Photoshop upgrades had failed (either 12.0.1 or 12.0.2) and I'd never gotten around to fixing it. Looking into that suggested reinstalling as the solution so I figured I should try uninstalling and reinstalling then apply all the upgrades and then try it again.
This time the upgrades did go through properly and I was just able to do a merge to HDR pro successfully so it looks like that's fixed the issue.

Photoshop CS6 HDR Merge to HDR Pro SUDDENLY stopped working?!

Yesterday and in the past HDR Merge to HDR Pro worked through Photoshop CS6 and Bridge. Suddenly its running then stops before taking me to HDR Adjustment window. I have installed reinstalled, computer is updated, etc. Only thing that I can find on this issue is hundreds of other people with the same problem and no solution that is working to get this function working again.

Exact same problem here.
CS6 Production Premium and updated.
Goes all the way through and fails.
Mine will still work with 2 images and maybe 3, but I have some stacks of 4-7 images. Not working at all.

Merge to HDR pro is producing very washed out results. Resulting images look terrible and bleached.

I posted here before, but was directed to go through the help menu in Photoshop, which brought me back here!! Please Help Me!
Merge to HDR pro is producing very "bleached" and overexposed images.
Thank you,
Rob

Thank you for the reply, Ed. I've delved into the PS preferences as best I could but did not see anything related to this issue. I have ACR set to convert at 240 dpi with ProPhoto color space and have never encountered this problem under typical 16 bit conversions from RAW to psd. For some reason PS sets the document size of 32 bit images to 3.5' x 5' @ 72 dpi which results in an extra step to the already time consuming workflow when creating such images in PS.
Perhaps this is an issue Adobe can address in a future update? They did a good job addressing other issues such as the disappearing RGB data in the info pallette when adjusting images with curves. It appears that the Windows version of PS has too many non-fatal (but annoying) flaws that aren't present in the Mac version.

I've notice that this seems to be a problem, but nowhere have I seen an answer that resolved it, so I thought it is worth posting again. Merge to HDR Pro is why I pay for Adobe CC and if it can't be made to work reliably, I'll stop paying!
Here is what happens:
3-5 images selected in Photoshop Lightroom
"Edit In" ==> "Merge to HDR Pro in Photoshop" selected
Photoshop opens and opens the images in separate layers
Photoshop goes through the alignment process
Photoshop clears out all the data and returns to an empty state (rather than opening the Merge to HDR dialogue page).
Now I have had it working perfectly for months, all of a sudden yesterday, in the middle of a session it stopped working.
If I use Photoshop to File | Automate | Merge to HDR Pro, same process happens - does everthing except the critical step of taking you into the HDR window.
I'm using Windows 7 with an Intel i7 processor and 8GB memory, most allowed by Photoshop. Nothing changed to cause the problem.
Adobe - need this resolved urgently please. Thanks.

I have also encountered this problem today working with a batch of .NEF files, using File > Automate > Merge to HDR in CC 2014. Same problem running from the Bridge > Tools menu. I suspected an issue with scene complexity for alignment until I checked this post.
The first merge processed fine. A subsequent one failed at the point of aligning the source Layers and did not pass to the Tone Mapping dialog. Re-trying the original batch then also failed - Huh ?
I tried an archive set of brackets and they worked OK. I also converted the .NEFs > .PSDs and that worked OK.
I would be interested if the O/P or yourself would try a merge from the following :

Merge to HDR Pro???

Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5. In Lightroom choose "Edit in" and "Merge to HDR Pro in Photoshop". Select 32 bit in HDR Pro and selection available is "Tone in ACR". When selected the image is presented in Camera Raw. The only choices afterward are "Cancel" or "Okay". Return to Photoshop is blank desktop and no toolbars and no image. If you select "Save" the invisible HDR image is saved back to Lightroom but the photoshop desktop is not useable and you must quit Photoshop and re-launch. Previous Photoshop CS6 round trip with this function worked just fine.

Thanks for your response.
I actually figured it out.
Thing is, I have been working with LR since it started along with PSE from about v4 but never worked with Photoshop until I joined the CC.So when I right clicked a file or files and chose 'edit in', I only saw PSE or Topaz as options. I never had a choice of 'merge to HDR pro in Photoshop'. So, what I did wrong was to send three photos to 'edit in Photoshop' and then did the merge to HDR. When finished I clicked the 'x' on each file name and they closed and went away. The three that came from LR, went back to LR. The HDR went to my last open file on my 'C' drive. Even though I found the file, I couldn't import it into LR. But that's another issue.
I got the hint from a Linda Kost (is that right name) tutorial on HDR processing. She showed how to work from 'Bridge' which showed the 'edit in merge to HDR' command. She worked with a Mac, I work on a PC and so I looked for it in LR thinking it might be there as in Bridge. And it was. Would have saved me some time if she also referened the PC workflow also.
Thanks again for responding.

Merge to HDR Pro from Lightroom

I am having trouble with Merge to HDR Pro from Lightroom to Photoshop CC. I can no longer get the exterior scenery to show clearly in the finished picture that I am adjusting in Lightroom. I cannot get the highlights adjusted low enough. Should I not let Photoshop autotone the image before I save it?

Okay, solved my own problem. I bit the bullet and did do a reinstall. I'd remembered that one of the previous Photoshop upgrades had failed (either 12.0.1 or 12.0.2) and I'd never gotten around to fixing it. Looking into that suggested reinstalling as the solution so I figured I should try uninstalling and reinstalling then apply all the upgrades and then try it again.
This time the upgrades did go through properly and I was just able to do a merge to HDR pro successfully so it looks like that's fixed the issue.
