Sloooww and also Export Query

Hello World, I really appreciate you going to the trouble of reading this. Please forgive my wordiness but I have tried to include all the information in one go without needing to be prompted for the rest of the story.......
iPhoto5, 20GB free space on my 80GB HDD, 110,000 pictures total 3.3GB. takes 1/2 min to open iPhoto or close it and every operation involves the spinning pinwheel. It's very tedious. From looking at other "slow" discussions it seems iPhoto5 Is naturally slow and an upgrade would speed things up. I dont really want the whole iLife08 suite, and I don't know if my "old" G5 would run it.Would it?
Is iPhoto6 available standalone?
Can I have multiple Libraries? That would fix it for me. Putting the whole Library on an external HD sounds like a very inconvenient fix.
My other query is this: The file sizes of my new camera go from 640 to 2048 (and then upwards). Generally for happy snaps I found 1024 was all i needed from my old camera but now finding the file sizes now too big for most things. So I Export a batch, reduce the file size to 1024 but when I Add to Library the reduced files have lost their original time and date, information I rely on. Is there another way to reduce file size but retain the old time/date?
Thank you for reading thus far. Wojjer reckon?

iLife08 suite, and I don't know if my "old" G5 would run it.Would it?
It would. See
http://www.apple.com/ilife/systemrequirements.html
for details.
Is iPhoto6 available standalone?
No version is available as a stand alone.
Can I have multiple Libraries
You can with later versions very easily. For v5 try using iPhoto Library Manager.
Putting the whole Library on an external HD sounds like a very inconvenient fix.
Why? Takes a couple of seconds and you never need think about it again.
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
So I Export a batch, reduce the file size to 1024 but when I Add to Library the reduced files
It's a while since I used v5, but I know this is certainly not an issue with v7. Mind you it's a great way to defeat the lossless editing feature. And explains how you got 110k photos into 3.3 gigs. They really cannot be more than thumbnails.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 Crashes on Render Timeline and also Export

    Hi, The Last few days Premiere Pro has been crashing during either export of a sequence or during render of timeline.
    This also happens if I import the timeline into AME and try to render from there.
    The Files on the timeline are 720x576 progessive @25fps Avi Type 2's
    I've tried outputting to a number of file types with the same crash. Also I have Premiere Elements on the same machine and this does the same!
    This had been working fine the past few weeks, can't understand why its stopped now.
    I've also tried uninstalling CS6 and reinstalling it. and also keep all updated..
    Also reading some other posts, i also uninstalled Itunes in case the latest update has caused problems. Unfortunately i don't have  restore point from before the problem started happening
    although i do have a backup on another drive.
    I should also mention that i've done a number of virus scans as well with a couple of products just in case of that.
    Machine is Win 7 64 bit.  I7 Quad 2600 (3.4gig), 10gb Ram, Blackmagic extreme input card, and Duo input card. The Video Card is internal to the board (Intel HD Graphics...which performs ok for what i need it for )
    any help would be appreciated to get up and running again.
    cheers
    john

    Well, I think i finally have got to the root of it...These files were recorded using Blackmagics Mjpeg Compressor, and that seems to be the problem.
    Rather than recoding the files (difficult as AME would fall over as well!) I ran them through my digital desk again (Vmix) playing them back and re recording them using AVi and the normal dv option...this time the files produced would render and output...hoorah  now see if i can finish it..will report back, but this seems to have sorted me out.

  • WVC54G setup for third party applications and also firmware query.

    I have resurrected someone's old WVC54G and installed it to work initially wirelessly to my netwark and then my Windows 7 64-bit laptop. I did an initial reset, then set up the ip address etc. to the system here, and everything seems to  work even though the viewer and recorder software installer gave a Windows error message.
    I'd like to be able to look at the camera via the VLC viewer application, and I see from another posting here that this should work.  Is there a guide anywhere showing how to do this? Ideally I'd like to understand how to interface the camera so that I can test various third party camera applications.
    Also, the Linksys setup software says the firmware version is V5.10, Feb 21, 2005, which seems a much higher number than it should be. Is this right?

    Try downloading the viewer and recorder utility from the linksys website under the download section which is pretty user friendly.
    To view it in VLC player, you can use the option 'open url' in file menu and type in http://your camera's IP
    The latest FW for wvc54g is ver. 2.11. The version you have mentioned might be software version.

    Hi Gabriele,
    The issue is that the ReadXml method takes an index parameter which is the number of the object that you want to read from the XML data. In your code you are specifying index 0 which is the first product tree in your file so when you call the Update method this is the only record that will be updated. It is not possible to do a mass update using the DI API in this way, you must always load each object separately. You can use the GetXMLelementCount method of the Company object to find out how many product tree objects are in your file and then use the ReadXML method to load each one by incrementing the index parameter in a loop.
    Kind Regards,
    Owen

  • To export query from Access to Excel in Read/Write mode in VBA

    Below is the code which exports the query named 'LatestSNR' from Access to Excel;
    Public Sub Expdata()
    Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
    Dim Apxl As Object
    Dim xlWBk, xlWSh As Object
    Dim PathEx As String
    Dim fld As DAO.Field
    PathEx = Forms("Export").Text14 'path comes from the directory given in form
    Set Apxl = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
    Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("LatestSNR")
    Set xlWBk = Apxl.Workbooks.Open(PathEx)
    'xlWBk.ChangeFileAccess xlReadWrite
    Set xlWBk = Workbook("PathEx")
    Apxl.Visible = True
    Set xlWSh = xlWBk.Worksheets("Metadatasheet")
    xlWSh.Activate
    xlWSh.Range("A2").Select
    For Each fld In rst.Fields
    Apxl.ActiveCell = fld.Name
    Apxl.ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Select
    Next
    rst.MoveFirst
    xlWSh.Range("A2").CopyFromRecordset rst
    xlWSh.Range("1:1").Select
    ' selects all of the cells
    Apxl.ActiveSheet.Cells.Select
    ' selects the first cell to unselect all cells
    xlWSh.Range("A2").Select
    rst.Close
    Set rst = Nothing
    ' Quit excel
    Apxl.Quit
    End Sub
    After the execution of code, the query is transferred to excel sheet and is viewed in 'Read only' mode. If I try to save it, a copy of the excel file is produced. Can the Excel be opened in Read/Write mode ? so as to save the workbook and also to transfer
    the query to same workbook repeatedly.
    If in case the change of mode is not possible, then is there any alternative  method?

    Try this version:
    Public Sub Expdata()
    Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
    Dim Apxl As Object
    Dim xlWBk As Object, xlWSh As Object
    Dim PathEx As String
    Dim i As Long
    PathEx = Forms("Export").Text14 'path comes from the directory given in form
    Set Apxl = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
    Set xlWBk = Apxl.Workbooks.Open(PathEx)
    Set xlWSh = xlWBk.Worksheets("Metadatasheet")
    Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("LatestSNR")
    For i = 1 To rst.Fields.Count
    xlWSh.Cells(1, i).Value = rst.Fields(i - 1).Name
    Next i
    rst.MoveFirst
    xlWSh.Range("A2").CopyFromRecordset rst
    xlWBk.Close SaveChanges:=True
    Apxl.Quit
    rst.Close
    Set rst = Nothing
    End Sub
    or else
    Public Sub Expdata()
    Dim PathEx As String
    PathEx = Forms("Export").Text14 'path comes from the directory given in form
    DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet TransferType:=acExport, _
    SpreadsheetType:=acSpreadsheetTypeExcel12Xml, _
    TableName:="LatestSNR", _
    Filename:=PathEx, _
    HasFieldNames:=True, _
    Range:="Metadatasheet!"
    End Sub

  • Export query results to flat file with dynamic filename

    Hi
    Can anybody can point me how to dynamic export query serults set to for example txt file using process flows in OWB.
    Let say I have simple select query
    select * from table1 where daterange >= sysdate -1 and daterange < sysdate
    so query results will be different every day because daterange will be different. Also I would like to name txt file dynamicly as well
    eg. results_20090601.txt, results_20090602.txt, results_20090603.txt
    I cant see any activity in process editor to enter custom sql statment, like it is in MSSQL 2000 or 2005
    thanks in advance

    You can call existing procedures from a process flow the procedure can create the filename with whatever name you desire. OWB maps with file as target can also create a file with a dynamic name defined by an expression (see here ).
    Cheers

  • 2.1.0.62: Exporting query results does not work if SQL has a join

    I get an error message, when I try to export the following test case to any data format.

    create table test2 (id number(2), text varchar2(5));

    I try to translate my german error message to english:
    "There are no valid columns for export available. Clob- or Blob-Columns are currently not supported"
    I get this message, when I right click into the query result grid and select export and then any data format.
    Hope that is not a double post but searching for export did not find results for 2.1.
    The following SQL also produces the error:
    select t1.* from test1 t1;
    These SQLs can be exported though:
    select * from test1 t1;
    select t1.id from test1 t1;
    I should have mentioned that I work with Windows XP and Oracle 10.2.0.4.

    Hi,
    Dhalek.
    I've got the same problem here.
    In my SQL Dev, I disabled the Autopopup code completion insight in SQL Worksheet. (Tools - Preferences - Code Editor - Code Completion - untick the checkbox). Restart SQL Dev. Tried to export a query.
    The same error message appears.
    My workaround is to re-enable the autopopup and restart SQL Dev.
    The disabled autopopup code completion insight caused me these

  • HFM Reports - Export Query Ready Grids

    I don't work with this too much, but shouldn't POV info come through when you export a report to Excel in the Query Ready format? For example, we export a Workspace (FR) report to Excel and choose the Query Ready Grids & Text option. The grid is created, but the POV menu is set to our system defaults, not what was in the report. Is this designed behavior?
    Thanks

    When I import a report this way, I get a prompt for necessary POV options. You can also change them later by using the BI Edit menu option...

  • SD footage looks Bad in timeline and on Export

    Hi there
    Let me start by saying that this Forum is amazing, I read through pages of stuff looking for something kind of similar to my question but come accross tons of really useful stuff that I just can't help myself from reading. You guys truly are a mind of knowledge, some of which I haven't a clue about to start with, but I am learning...
    Anyway, on to my query.
    I work in Prem Pro CS4 and also use Encore and AME.
    All my updates are up to date and I work on a struggling system (dual core. P4. 32 bit Vista Home, 4GB mem, ATI video card (512mb) Its a couple of years old, but handle SD footage ok.
    I often get asked to shoot Weddings, Bands & Events (I'm no professional, just a keen ameteur). I shoot this footage mainly in SD (PAL) using a Sony HDRFX1 & and HDR-SR12e.
    Okay, so i know there is a difference in Picture clarity at source. the FX1 out performs the SR12 easily, and so this is used for the odd cut away and not the main event.
    When I import my footage into PP, all looks OK with the FX1 footage, but the SDR footage is really blurred (out of focus) and washed out. Though playing it back through the Camera or hooked up to a TV, it doesn't look half bad.
    So, what am I doing wrong? Why is PP making this footage look horrible and even making the FX1 footage look rather un loveable.
    This is the case in Both the Preview window (Highest Quality) and when I export to file or DVD.
    I have exported to Verbatim discs (This has made a slight difference) using Encore (using both Dynamic link and exporting as an AVI).
    I don't touch transcoding setting, I let Encore sort that out.
    I see talk of Codecs - I use mostly the Mpg2 DVD "Main Concept Codec" as my stuff ultimatley ends up on a disc (no other codecs are available to me) - Should i be looking for a better one? - But surely this won't make the footage any clearer in the Preview window in anycase.
    Maybe I am Importing it wrongly, as the SDR is a HDD, I just import the usual way... So I can't see i am doing anything wrong there.
    I understand that this is a large post and I have so many questions about getting it right. But my main problem is the end product just doesn't quite live up to my expectations, or as it looks on the Camera (or playing from the camera on a 40inch Bravia) before importing in to PP.
    I have tried playing the DVDs back through several DVD players and Monitors, it looks virtually the same.
    Any suggestions as to improving this would be greatly appreciated.

    No problems Harm
    I appreciate you taking the time to help me out with this issue.
    Let me go through what I do, hopefully you can pick any holes.
    I import from FX1 via capture in PP - usuing the DV preset (No option to change except for HDV) - you referred to "capture in MS DV AVI type2" but I have no option to chage any setting. It's either DV or HDV.
    I import the Footage from the SDR via Sony PMB (Picture Motion Bridge) and then import into PP using the double click on project panel method, then set up a series of BINS to make it all very tidy.
    I then use 1 sequence and sync up the footage, then just use keyframes to mix in and out where required.
    This is all in 720x576 PAL
    The quality problems are noticable in the preview window (Set to highest quality)
    To test if this is really what I am going to end up with at the end of my project I have exported as an AVI file and played it on my PS3. The footage still looks washed out, Blurry etc.
    I have also expoted to a DVD via Encore using Dynamic Link and importing a renederd file and palyed this back on both a Toshiba DVD (upscaler) and PS3. I have also tested it on A Sony Plasma (Though this actually makes it more washed out but a smoother feel) also through a Bravia 30" LCD (this looks the same).
    Also played back on PC using VLC, WMP, Nero & Media Player Classic - all give very similar results.
    However, playing the files direct from the Camcorder give a different impression. The footage, whilst not as pretty as High Def, is what you expect from a Single Chip handy Cam.
    I will say one thing, the footage is clearer when viewed in PMB (Sonys Picture Motion Bridge)

  • UCM archiver Export query parameter

    I would like to use IdcCommand to run archive service to export some documents in UCM.
    I noticed there seems a parameter "aExportQuery" (by searching internet) can be used to create query but I'm not sure what the syntax is for this parameter
    also, I don't see this parameter mentioned in the official document of archiver services:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21043_01/doc.1111/e11011/c07_archive002.htm#i3246938
    on another hand, this document says :
    dataSource: Must be set to RevisionIDs. This is the query stub which, along with the export query, will be used to create the list of revisions to export.
    sounds like this is where query should be created in.
    Could someone clarify how to specify query for UCM export using IdcCommand ?
    Thanks

    Hi ,
    I would suggest to set the following trace sections on UCM to get the details :
    requestaudit,socketrequest and enable Full verbose tracing .
    Then create a new archive export collection - once it is done go to view server output and check Socketrequest output , it will give the exact set of parameters and how the values are set for each of them .
    Thanks,

    It sounds like you are seeing some odd performance issues with Logic Pro X. I recommend these troubleshooting steps specifically from the following article to help troubleshoot what is happening:
    Logic Pro X: Troubleshooting basics
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5859
    Verify that your computer meets the system requirements for Logic Pro X
    See Logic Pro X Technical Specifications.
    Test using the computer's built-in audio hardware
    If you use external audio hardware, try setting Logic Pro X to use the built-in audio hardware on your computer. Choose Logic Pro X > Preferences > Audio from the main menu and click the Devices tab. Choose the built in audio hardware from the Input Device and Output Device pop-up menus. If the issue is resolved using built-in audio, refer to the manufacturer of your audio interface.
    Start Logic with a different project template
    Sometimes project files can become damaged, causing unexpected behavior in Logic. If you use a template, damage to the template can cause unexpected results with any project subsequently created from it. To create a completely fresh project choose File > New from Template and select Empty Project in the template selector window. Test to see if the issue is resolved in the new project.
    Sometimes, issues with the data in a project can be repaired. Open an affected project and open the Project Information window with the Project Information key command. Click Reorganize Memory to attempt to repair the project. When you reorganize memory, the current project is checked for any signs of damage, structural problems, and unused blocks. If any unused blocks are found, you will be able to remove these, and repair the project. Project memory is also reorganized automatically after saving or opening a project.
    Delete the user preferences
    You can resolve many issues by restoring Logic Pro X back to its original settings. This will not impact your media files. To reset your Logic Pro X user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
    In the Finder, choose Go to Folder from the Go menu.
    Type ~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field.
    Press the Go button.
    Remove the com.apple.logic10.plist file from the Preferences folder. Note that if you have programmed any custom key commands, this will reset them to the defaults. You may wish to export your custom key command as a preset before performing this step. See the Logic Pro X User Manual for details on how to do this. If you are having trouble with a control surface in Logic Pro X, then you may also wish to delete the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder.
    If you have upgraded from an earlier version of Logic Pro, you should also remove~/Library/Preferences/Logic/com.apple.logic.pro.
    Restart the computer.
    Isolate an issue by using another user account
    For more information see Isolating an issue by using another user account.
    Reinstall Logic Pro X
    Another approach you might consider is reinstalling Logic Pro X. To do this effectively, you need to remove the application, then reinstall Logic Pro X. You don't have to remove everything that was installed with Logic Pro X. Follow the steps below to completely reinstall a fresh copy of Logic Pro X.
    In the Finder, choose Applications from the Go menu.
    Locate the Logic Pro X application and drag it to the trash.
    Open the Mac App Store
    Click the Purchases button in the Mac App Store toolbar.
    Sign in to the Mac App Store using the Apple ID you first used to purchase Logic Pro X.
    Look for Logic Pro X in the list of purchased applications in the App Store. If you don't see Logic Pro X in the list, make sure it's not hidden. See Mac App Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases for more information.
    Click Install to download and install Logic Pro X.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • Jumpy playback from image sequences rendered in Apple Prores and then exported to h264

    I will start by saying I have been using FCP since 1.0 and am in no way new to this software, but this issue has me going crazy.
    First the Specs:
    MacPro 2 x 2.66 Quad cor Intel Xeon
    16 gig Ram
    OS 10.9.2
    FCP 7.0.3 (sorry but I am not a fan of FCP10 at all)
    In other words, a beast of a system that has played back everything I have ever built on it for years until now. So now for the issue: I work with an amazing 3D Max builder and we have created a building animation exported from that program into and image sequence ( we have tried JPG, TGA and PNG still all with the same effect). I open Quicktime 7 Pro, build the image sequence, save as .mov, import into FCP and drop it into my 1080p30 Apple Prores (HQ ... we also tried SQ) timelines. The timeline renders perfectly and I can play the video perfectly through my system out of Firewire 800 to my Motu V4HD device which then converts the signal to HDMI to my 55" LED TV. The video and playback is perfect.... until:
    If I try to play back the same exact time line into an exported video file, the file will play back with random jumpyness in it. I say random since you can play it back 10 times and it will hiccup during playback at different spots in the video. If you review every frame in the file though using Quicktime 10, 7 or VLC viewer, every frame is perfect. So, it must be the data rate right? Wrong. I have exported now to H264 MP4, M4V, MOV , ect, etc at different data rates from 4mb to 40 mb per second. They all have the same randow jumpyness to it. So it must be my computer right? Nope. I have a Macbook pro that is more powerful than this machine and I rebuild the file using the same method (something I have done a thousand times before) and the exported file does the same thing on that machine. I had my friend do it on his machine... same thing. ERRRR....
    We have even tried using After Effects and Premier to the same result. Rendered it straight from Quicktime Pro, same. Rendered it to 720p30, same. Render it to 24fps, same. I had another editor render it using whatever methods he wanted to use... same. Tried Compressor, SAME.  Tried Adobe Media Encoder, SAME......We even, god forbid, used a PC running Premier and built the image sequence and rendered to h264 at 30fps, 5mbs.... @#$@#$ SAME!
    We just remade the 3D Studio Max export into a 60fps animation since I thought that the individual frames we appearing too far apart and thus causing the jumpyness. That was causing the playback of the upclose objects flying across the screen fast to appear jittery, but not the random playback jumps. The 60fps did smooth out the animation greatly during fast flybys, but the playback jumps are still there in all players, QT, VLC, the web, etc.
    I was starting to think this issue is realted to Mavericks, but since the PC did the same thing that is not it either. I have linked a sample of the clip below exported to 720p30, 25mbs... something that is much smaller than the original and should playback smooth very easily on any of my systems.
    FYI: I have now opened numerous projects I have edited over the last few years and noticed that all of them are now jumpy, so this isn't just an image sequence issue. While the other projects don't use image sequences and instead are shot footage edited together, there is still the random jump (far less than the image sequence as you will see) but they are now there... ***? I have cleared preferences in FCP which helps for a short period of time, but once exported I get the same glitch.
    As I said... I am stumped... ANYONE have ideas for me to try?
    Here is a sample file for you all to see and please tell me if anyone does not see the issue after playing it several times in a row.
    www.media3lv.com/switch/NORTH-sample-720p30_25mb-sec.zip
    One last thing to note... my main goal for these videos is YouTube or Vimeo playback via our company website. I have a few other animations online right now using YouTube and the problem is also showing there. At first I thought it was just my videos, but I have looked at numerous YouTube videos now showing 3D animation and alot of them are jumpy.
    www.supernap.com/supernap-building-design.html
    www.supernap.com/supernap-tscif-exchange.html
    These don't show the issue as bad since the camera fly is much slower, but why is this occuring and is it coming from my source, or is this a known youtube issue? I can program this using out own modules, but YouTube and Vimeo allow for multiple resolutions and a checker script which makes it easier to share over all devices at all quality up to 1080p.
    Advice is welcome and appreciated?

    I have tried at actual, full screen, using 1080p30 size from the original compressed to 4mbs (something my system can handle without blinking), 720p30, etc. etc. etc.  Nothing stops the jumps. Even the activity monitor shows only 5%-15% processing being used by QT and/or FCP.
    I plan to pull my old G5 out of the closet, it runs 10.6.8 and is still rock solid for video editing in FCP7.  If it plays smooth on that 8 year old system then I know it's Mavericks. I'll try that tonight. It floors me though why the original 1080p30 will playback perfect via FCP and Motu, but once I turn of external monitoring and just try to play it via the preview monitor it is jumpy as **** and then the exported file does the same thing.  So strange.  I even deleted prefences of FCP and that does help with screen playback initially, but it always gets jumps in it after playing for a while.
    I knew I should not have started using Mavericks and I HATE FCP10.

  • Photos in Library module and after export look different than in Development module

    Hello,
    I experience a problem.
    After I update photos in the Development module, the updates seem not to be shown in the Library module. And when I subsequently export to Flickr, Flickr is also showing the original photo, not the adapted one.
    I noticed this the first time after making Blacks a bit deeper, causing a sunflower to become a deeper yellow. I thought that my adaptations were not applied in the Library module. After I checked with cranking down the Saturation all the way back (to almost black-and-white), that adaptation WAS applied in the Library view. So it had to be something else, causing the same color difference between the Library and Development modules.
    When I switch from the Library module to the Development module, I see a slight delay in applying my changes, but they are applied. Before they are applied, I can see that the original photo is shown and that looks the same as in the Library module and on Flickr.
    The photostrip on the bottom of the Lightroom screen also shows the original photos only, unless I go to the development module and select a photo (adaptations are applied in the photostrip after I select the photo, not before).
    After I played a bit more in the Development module, I found something strange in the Camera Calibration menu of the Development module. The Adobe Profile (my default) caused an obvious color difference between the Library (less saturated) and the Development (more saturated) modules. The Camera Standard profile also showed a (very) slight difference, but I was unable to notice the differences using the other profiles.
    So I was thinking (but it's only a guess), that the profiles are not applied in the Library view and on export, but they are in the Development module?
    I use Lightroom 5.6, Camera RAW 8.6.
    Please help me, as this is very annoying. I currently cannot export my photos to Flickr or anywhere else, unless I overcompensate before exporting. And I really don't want to do that. My Lightroom photo is my perfect photo, and I want to keep it that way...
    Many thanks in advance for any help,
    Peter

    Hi ssprengel,
    Thanks for your reply. Let me react to each possibility you mention and provide some extra information.
    - "Check your Export / File Settings / Image Format and make sure they are set to JPG not Original". Done that, it's not on Original, but on jpg. This would not explain why I see the difference in the Library and Development modules, by the way. But better to know for sure.
    - "...the most likely thing that is wrong is your color-management on your computer is not working properly". It is a PC with Windows 7. I have been using Lightroom for maybe 6 years and I never had this problem before. The last time I changed my setup is more than a year ago and this problem only started to happen a short while ago (after the update to Lightroom 5.6? I'm not sure, but that's the only thing that has changed lately). I use a Spider to create a custom profile that is correct for my setup and do a regular update on the profile.
    - "what brand and model of monitor do you have?" I have an EIZO FlexScan S2411W and use that for a long time as well. I chose this brand of monitors for its good color reproduction and I have been happy with it for years now.
    What I am not getting is why would all this show a difference between the Library and Development module? The only difference is the Lightroom software that is switching from one module to another, and that should deliver the same photo. I'm also stating in my first post that the differences are very noticeable using the Adobe Standard Camera Profile in the Development module. I have a feeling that the profile is part of the problem.
