PL8 Export to LR Classic problems

I have been using DXO product since PL5, import to disc using Optical correction only, then DeNoise and export to LR Classic and edit there. Since upgraded to PL8 and using DeepPrime XD/XD2s I get error message on some (probably 20%) of batch and export then hangs. If I only use DeepPrime no problem, less errors but still some.

I am on OS Sonoma 14.1, DXO PL Elite 8.2.1 Build 38 and LR Classic 14.01 and Camera RAW 17.0 and it is OM System OM-1 RAW file converted to .DNG after Optical correction and DeNoise and export to LR Classic. Experienced the same problem if I export single or multiple files.

Help will be appreciated, I have to use DXO Denoise function as it is much better than LR Denoise.

Thank you

Collect screen captures of your error messages and/or describe exactly what is happening and when and open a ticket on support.dxo.com

Please add info about your configuration like version numbers of PL, Lr and OS.
It might help someone trying to reproduce your issue.

Thank you platypus. I have added some information but will update error message as soon as I am back at MacBook

platypus,

I have opened a ticket with DXO PL8 support as suggested. Have not yet received any feedback. I include the screen captures here, it might assist somebody if they experience the same or can assist me.


Haven’t much of an idea…but I see that the un-processable images have a different star rating than the one that worked. Please check.

Are you handing over the images from Lightroom or do you use PL standalone?

You could also share the three raw files and the corresponding .dop and .xmp sidecars for us to see if we can reproduce the issue.

When you say you import photos with optical correction only. PL don’t import files but simply read them where they are located.

From where do you read the files?
To where do you write the exported files?

I use Photo Mechanic to download, cull and grade RAW images from memory card to a specific folder on an external SSD. I then move the graded images to a “to edit” folder on the same external SSD. I then open the images in that “To edit” folder in DXO PL8 and apply preset of “Optical correction only” I then have a second quick glance at images and do a final selection of images I would like to edit. I then only apply the NR using DeePPrime XD/XD2s. I will do this in batch processing on all images. After the NR is completed I Export to LrC to edit further. During this export to LrC I am experiencing the errors as reported. I have been using this since I originally started using DXO PL5 and every upgrade to current PL8.2.1 build 38.

After import the images open in LrC as a collection and I do my full edit and then export to final destination on WD My Book external HD (and backup die folder on WD HD)

The star rating is just my normal grading of images. I use * to ***** stars to grade my images. All processing etc is the same for different * rated images. Where do I share file to?

Click on the word “share” above., add your files and you’ll get a URL that you can paste into your next post

Exported to LrClassic 13.4 from Photolab 8.2.1 on macOS 14.7.2 on 2019 5k iMac
and found no issue whatsoever.

This is how I tested

  • opened PL8 and customised the images to my taste
  • exported to LrC with the first jpeg preset as proposed by DxO
  • opened PL8 and customised the images by importing your .dop files
  • exported to LrC with the first jpeg preset as proposed by DxO

Note that I had (for other reasons) removed all previously installed DxO items and had then installed PL8 from a recent download.

According to an earlier feedback from DxO Support, it seems to help to clean out an installation and re-install the app. If you want to try this, you’ll find locations of PL1 to PL8 items in the following document:
