Why no third-party plug-in support?

As a wedding photographer I have fallen in love with Lightroom for RAW editing, processing, and proofing, but when print orders come in I have to revert to Photoshop for access to my favorite plug-ins such as PK Sharpener and Noise Ninja. The third-party developers have stated that Adobe refuses to allow plug-ins to be added. This seems odd since Adobe permits them for Photoshop. What's the difference?

<[email protected]> wrote in message <br />news:[email protected]..<br />> Be nice if Adobe could get the sharpening and noise reduction soooo cool <br />> in LR (from Raw to print), the need for third parties in these areas is <br />> not needed.<br /><br /><br />Sharpening in there. I have seen no other product that does any better with <br />sharpening. Output sharpening however would be nice. There is already print <br />sharpening but something needs to be added for the web and slideshow when <br />images are resized you need to be able to apply some sharpening.<br /><br />Robert

  • Third Party Plug Ins from old computer?

    Before I ask my next question, I just want to thank everyone out there that take the time to help others on this board.
    I have a non bootable drive from my old computer (just died last week, power supply) and I also have it's contents backed up on an external drive. I have so many third party plug ins for my iMovie on my old G5, but how can I get them on my new computer? Slick was nice enough to re-email me everything I have purchased through them. One Company's plug ins I used most is no longer in business. Do I have to kiss it goodbye or can I still get it into my new Pro Mac?
    Thanks, Beth

    As long as you have a working drive, whether FireWire or something else, why not just connect it to your Mac Pro?
    As to whether they will work, or cause trouble, that would have to be updated to Universal Binary or to work with current iMovie would be another matter and probably happen anyway.
    Importing or migrating old powerppc applications and support files often cause problems and can be a "monkey wrench" effect. Reinstall is always best.
    Going forward, always keep originals, burn to CD/DVD all your downloads and software purchases, even copies of your CDs.
    If you have a list, or Google even might be able to resolve this.
    The fact it isn't bootable you should be able to copy or recover files. You just don't want to use Migration Assistant for applications, even if it sees the drives and could.

  • How do I add third party plug-in to Acrobat Pro XI and add things to the main menu bar.

    Running Acrobat Pro XI, (CC suite) on MacPro OSX 10.8
    Main Menu Bar only shows  'Acrobat    File    Edit    View   Window   Help'.
    No Third Party Plug-ins are shown under 'Acrobat' on the Menu Bar
    Acrobat Pro 9 (also installed)  shows the Third Party Plug-ins and a lot of other options on the Menu Bar
    How do I get Pro XI to look like Pro 9

    You'll have to install PitStop again and point it at the new Acrobat when it asks you, or you can open the Acrobat 9 package and copy PitStop from the plugins folder into the same folder in Acrobat XI.
    You didn't mention which version of PitStop you have so you'll need to check the system requirements to make sure you are compatible.
    http://www.enfocus.com/en/support/knowledge-base/pitstop-pro-system-requirements?q=system+ requirements
    Also be aware of the interface change between Acrobat 9 and XI, you no longer have all the tool bars available on the top, you now have tools in a column on the right.
    But you can drag tool icons up to the top and make sets as well.
    You can get information on the differences within PitStop here.

  • How can I add my software in Adobe's Third-party plug-ins for Adobe Premiere Pro ?

    Hi,
    Our company have a software called Moyea Importer for Adobe Premiere.
    Moyea Importer for Adobe Premiere is a recommended FLV, MPG, RMVB, HD  video import plugin for Adobe Premiere Pro. This plug-in enables users  to import FLV videos with various codec like AVC/H.264, AAC, Screen  Video, Nellymoser, MP3, PCM, and Sorenson H.263. Besides FLV video, the  plug-in allows AVCHD import and HD video import in MTS, M2TS, TP, TS,  and MKV formats.
    Moyea Importer for Adobe Premiere do not convert your video so it keeps  video quality for you. The plug-in automatically detects the Adobe Premiere versions on your  machine and you can choose the versions to install the plug-in. It  currently supports Adobe Premiere Pro 1.0/1.5/2.0/CS3/CS4 and Elements  3.0/4.0/7.0/8.0.
    I notice in Third-party plug-ins for Adobe Premiere Pro this part, Adobe didn't get any such plug-ins. They only have two file support plug-ins and Moyea Importer can fill the blank.
    Now I want to submit this software on Adobe's site but I don't know where to submit or who I should to contact. Any suggestions? I really need your help and I am sure it is really good software.

    Any suggestion? Admin of this board? Who can help me

  • IDCS3 WinXP SP2 - Third Party Plug-in from CS2 to CS3

    I've upgraded to CS3 with no problems - except for trouble with a third party plug-in. We installed SBREFX.pln, a cross reference plug-in, in our CS2. While many of our CS2 documents don't actually use this plug-in, it was installed when those documents were created.
    When opening these docs in CS3, an error message appears stating that the plug-in is not found. (There is no CS3 version of this plug-in, not do we really need it anymore.) While we can bypass the error message, we cannot "package" the CS3 publication for service provider as long as the plug-in is not installed.
    The only work-around we've found is to start a new doc in CS3, load the para styles, swatches, master pages, etc from the old CS2 file and copy and paste all the pages from CS2 version to new CS3 doc. VERY time consuming.
    We've also tried opening the document in CS2 and managing the plug-ins. But we cannot find a way to turn off, or disable, this cross reference plug-in in CS2. Our thought was to be able to disable it, save the CS2 file, then open that with CS3, hopefully with no plug-in errors.
    I appreciate any help anyone can provide.
    DH

    Bob,
    Could Dawne have solved this by inx round tripping in CS2 and then opening the new cleansed CS2 file in CS3?
    As I understand it, the fix works because inx does not support the plug-in references. So it should work as well in CS2. Is that correct?
    Thanks,
    Al

  • Third Party Plug-in Issue

    I've recently downloaded a couple third party plug-ins and I can't seem to get them to show up when I open Final Cut.
    The folders are in:
    HD/Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro System Support/Plug ins
    But when I open Final Cut they're not showing up in my Video filters folder.
    Can anyone help me?
    Thanks.

    If the plugins happen to be generators they will appear in the Generators window - not the Video Effects !

  • IMPORTANT: 7.5.1 update breaks ALL third party plug-ins!!!

    I found an update to 7.5.1 today in Adobe updater for InDesign and InCopy, and I updated.
    BAD!
    No third-party plug-in works anymore! They were fine in CS5.5 7.5, and now ALL are broken in 7.5.1!!!
    What the he.. did Adobe break in this update!?!

    Please be aware that officially there are no CS5.5 compatible plugins from WoodWing yet. The CS5 version may have worked, but it was not officially a 5.5 compatible version. See http://www.woodwing.com/en/Newsflashes/20110413-woodwing-announces-support-for-adobe-creat ive-suite-5.5. Special 5.5 compatible versions are in the making.

  • No 3rd Party Plug-In Support in Prelude?

    Hi,
    I am hoping to utilize this third-party plug-in linked below with Adobe Prelude to ingest Ikegami MXF media, perform pre-edits and transcode from camera media to permanent storage
    http://http://www.mainconcept.com/products/apps-plug-ins/plug-ins-for-adobe/t otalcode-cs-5-6.htmlhttp://
    The plug-in works great in Premiere, but doesn't seem to be recognized by Prelude.  See this thread linked below.
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4621685#4621685
    The creaters of Total Code have informed me that Prelude does not support any 3rd party plug-in software.  Is this true?  If so, seems like a big oversight on Adobe's part given Prelude's place in the workflow for batch transcodes.  Any chance 3rd party support is expected to be built in via a CS6 update?
    Thanks,
    Lindsay

    Thanks for your help Zac. I hope you can get ot the bottom of this for me.  I have corresponded with Total Code via email support and they kindly pointed the finger back at Adobe, but I have the feeling someone like your self may have a bit more sway.  Please keep me posted and thanks again.

  • Third Party plugs don't seem to work on nodes

    I've got a node working with Logic 8 and it works great with the Logic plugs. I've tried several third party plugs and none of them work: Ozone, Trash, Vintage Warmer, Airwindows Iron Oxide. The manual says ". . . some Audio Unit effects may not support the Node functionality of Logic Pro." So do the developers now have to redesign their plugins somehow to make them work with nodes? Has anyone been able to get a third party plugin working on a node?

    The manual specifically states that third party plug-ins are supported. So Matrixx, it looks like you're using a G4 as your node which is what I was doing. Perhaps I need a more recent version of Vintage Warmer. Are you also using Logic plugs on the tracks that have VW? I'm wondering whether you can mix and match third party with logic plugs on the same track. Well, this is encouraging. I really want the Airwindows stuff to work and I've got the most recent versions there. Do you have Iron Oxide? have you tried any Airwindows plugs?

  • Noding and third party plugs

    Is there a legal reason behind why apple will not allow 3rd party plug ins to be noded or are they just being cnuts?

    That would require separate development. Receptor continually updates to add new plugins. Logic would have to do the same, and while I think this would be cool, I'd rather reserve their development time for internal issues more.
    On a side note I think the need for this with third party plugins over logic plugs is because thirdparty plugs tend to be less CPU efficient than Logic ones. I use to use a lot of third party plugs, but these days I've just been studying Logic's more. I know for things like BFD it's hard but, hey compare the CPU of BFD with a well built Ultrabeat set.

  • Third party plug in problem?

    I am using IMac 10.6 and have just upgraded from CS4 to CS5. I have been using Nik Complete Collection plug-ins. Where as in CS4 I could select the Nik plug-in under the Photo Shop Filter tool bar, in CS5 it is not showing. Also they do not show up under the Photoshop pull-down "About plug-ins". Supposedly the Nik software is compatible with CS5.
    I have reloaded the Nik software. I am still seeing it under the CS4 program. I also have a couple of other third-party plug-in that do not show up.
    Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

    Running Photoshop CS5 as a 64-bit application (odds are it is). Older plug-ins need to be updated to 64-bit capable version to run in Photoshop CS5 when CS5 is launched as a 64-bit application. Until you get updated plug-ins locate the CS5 folder and select Photoshop CS5 and do a Command I (that's i) and choose to launch as a 32-bit application–the plug-ins should now be available (although you are limited to running CS5 as a 32-bit app which will be able to use much less ram and will run slower).

  • Third Party Plug-in for Multiple Swatch Palettes in InDesign

    Hello,
    Does anyone know if there is a third-party plug in to have multiple swatch palettes in InDesign? I would like to create different palettes for different sections of the long document --- scrolling through all of the swatches each time is cumbersome.
    Many thanks!
    Jessica W.

    Here's a little trick that may not even require a third party plugin
    On the Master Page
    Create a bunch of rectangles, colour them with all the swatch colours you need, make as many pallettes as you like.
    Then group them together
    Create a text frame
    Insert the group as anchored objects
    Alignment make it away from spine (so it's always way out to the right or left)
    Then Move the text frame over so that it encroaches on the page.
    duplicate the frame and put it on the other side too.
    Now all your pages have palletes of colour beside them. And you can use the Eye Dropper to sample the colours.

  • Third party plug in.

    I havé installed 2 third party plug ins on my imac 24, Ivory piano, and Artuia Brass, But i cant find it in my list in the Audio unit manager, and ive tried to rescann it several times, but its not comming up on the list, ive tried to look in the manuels and look around in the forums but havent been able to find an answer, so i wonder if there is a speciel button i have to press or if i have to install in the plug ins in a speciel place to get it to work in logic studio 8.. hope theres and answer for my question!...
    Louis...

    when i do that it says... Kind : Component (PowerPC) so i dont know what to get from that?
    Just to clarify this, when it says 'Power PC' that means that it will only work on Power PC machines - those are G4, G5, etc processors, and NOT Intel processors. It will either say 'Universal' (meaning it will work on both Intel and PPC machines) or 'Intel' (Intel only, obviously) in the parenthesis. So now you know!

  • Logic Pro 9.1.1 AU third-party plug-ins ongoing issue for many

    Where is the Logic development team on this? Nearly all third-party AU plug-ins produce random pops and clicks at the beginning of playback and on occasion randomly during playback but before audio regions in tracks with these plug-ins installed. These pops and clicks are even visible in the track's meter. http://www.gearslutz.com/board/music-computers/482381-logic-3rd-party-plugs-pop- click-nightmare-how-does-rest-world-do.html How many people need to complain? Is Logic Pro considered production software?

    I can't imagine a more textbook and apple-friendly environment than what I have. 32-bit is not the problem. I don't believe logic runs at 64 until you're on os 10.6 and I'm still on 10.5.8. My entire rig is what you'd see in an apple store logic demo. I've tried nearly everything:
    1) All standard optimization tips including but not limited to no date/time updates, no airport/wi-fi, no bluetooth
    2) I have a ultra high-quality external fw drive by G-drive
    3) Standard issue ensemble with updated firmware
    4) Moving AU component files from system library to user library
    If you look at the number of people commenting on the GS thread as well as other forums – the problem is common and needs to be fixed. I'm not the only logic user plagued by this issue:
    http://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=43306
    http://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=50030
    I really believe it has something to do with how many third-party plug-ins handle AU's reset or initialize callbacks; somewhere in between. This bug is clearly affecting many users and I'm coming close to starting a petition and devoting some serious time to making a big dorky stink about it on youtube.
    Either the AU spec needs to be updated to clarify some tricks (or hacks) specific to Logic's on-demand DSP usage or the logic team needs to publish a notice to all "Logic" AU developers. Optionally, if Logic had a preference to turn OFF on-demand AU DSP (so that plug-ins are always-on like in every other DAW or...ugh...outboard gear). Logic's on-demand AU DSP handling is outdated considering the processing power available in ANY apple computer made within the last 3 years. My CPU meter in Logic barely even lights up. On-demand DSP is overkill and antiquated and the least Logic can do is provide production or mission-critical users the ability to opt-out if they have the CPU power to do so.
    Having said all that; I hope I'm wrong about something and can come back here to eat my words and feel very embarrassed about my rant. I'm going to keep digging for solutions – hopefully, I'll find out the secret to whatever it is the few of you are doing to keep your third-party AU plugs quiet before an audio region starts.
    Also; Scott at Stillwell Audio has graciously begun trying to track down this very issue and is one of the few DSPers who has taken interest in helping Logic folk.
