Importing Audio files in the Lightroom Catalog

Hi, I have recently started my move from Aperture to Lightroom. It's so much more powerful, with so many parameters! But one thing that's really problematic is that Lightroom does ' t support Audio files (it doesn't video) Unlike the opening. This is crucial for my photo, video and a sound management and would like to hear if its possible or is it something that is still under construction for Lightroom?

If you have audio annotation .wav files created by your camera for specific images (for example, .jpg and example), LR will import as a special "sidecar" files, and they will appear in the metadata Panel on the right:

If you click the .wav file name, LR will play it.

If you want to import, tag and search for audio files to any other format, including audio files that are not associated with a particular image, LR doesn't have this builtin ability. However, you can use the plugin to any file to import and manage these audio files.

  • Is it possible to import Raw files into the LR catalog...... including all changes in an external file raw editor such as Capture One?

    Is it possible to import Raw files into the LR catalog...... including all changes in an external file raw editor such as Capture One?

    I can import the Raw file successfully, but can't see all the changes that have been applied in Capture One. IM assuming not, but just to check.

    Your assumption is correct, Capture One, Lightroom and other third party raw processors have their own exclusive process and profiles to render the raw data.

    They do not make permanent changes to the raw data and save changes to a .xmp file or to a Lightroom catalog file.

  • Lightroom - how to restore backed up files (not the Lightroom Catalog) from one external drive to another?

    How to restore backed up files (not the lightroom catalog) from one external drive to another.

    I've recently saved my photo files to one external drive to another. The backup (carbon copy clone) pointed out some files corrupt on the original drive.

    I deleted these files and find good copies of Time Machine backups.

    I want to get rid of the original external drive; use the recent backup as my main outside and then save it to a new disc.

    I'm not sure how everything is point lightroom for backups so he knows look on the new drive instead of the old drive and all points of exclamation and question marks go away.

    There are close to 60 000 images in several files with a 'parent folder."

    My best guess is Lightroom Help - create and manage folders - locate missing files

    Can I point to the folder of one of their parents, and all of the subfolders will return?

    This is the process for recovering files in lightroom and there will be a problem with so many photos?

    Questions 1)

    Not because the LRDATA file is fair previews, what LR displays on your screen for a faster loading of the image and will be recreated. The previews only stored in the folder LRDATA is the basic overview created at time of importation for the display of thumbnails and previews of 1:1 for images that you have actually looked in the Loupe View or I guess that appears in the develop module.

    He get all the data to create the image themselves file extracts.

    If you have several files on your system that have pictures in them and you select one of them that you have not looked at in a while, you will notice LR creation of previews for these images, there will be 3 white dots in the upper right corner of the thumbnail. It's LR creation of previews for the thumbnail view. If you scroll quickly in the grid view, you'll notice a few thumbnails of images are gray, until you stop scrolling, then the upper left tile will come in clear view and the white dots will appear on the other images. It's LR creating previews for those of other images. Once LR created the preview of thumbnails that are on your screen, white spot will disappear. If you scroll down again, you will see more white dots

    If you switch to another folder that LR begins again create preview images in this folder. The total number of previews created and stored based on caching of the preview you have in the catalog settings dialog in the management of the files tab.

    If not, you need not the LR Previews.lrdata folder. Whenever LR is not very good this folder with a catalog he recreates it to store previews in.

    Cannot open catalog in Lightroom

  • Lightroom export - original file with the Lightroom change data

    Hello, Hello!

    I imported a file, for the sake of arguments, some JPEG files, TIFF and DND in Lightroom photos, leaving the files in place and just linking them to the library of the Lightroom Catalog. I then did a bunch of 'changes' to photos in Lightroom (the data of these changes are stored in the Lightroom catalog file, right?).

    Now can I export some of the photos from Lightroom so that the file that comes out is, in the same/different file format (e.g. JPEG/TIFF/DNG) and have the change Lightroom incorporated (perhaps in the EXIF data) data from the exported file? Can I then open it with a 'normal' program and have it show the original? Can I open it with Lightroom/Photoshop (?) so it shows the original with the change data applied?

    Thank you very much! :-))

    Now can I export some of the photos from Lightroom so that the file that comes out is, in the same/different file format (e.g. JPEG/TIFF/DNG) and have the change Lightroom incorporated (perhaps in the EXIF data) data from the exported file?

    Yes, but you must not export. Simply press Ctrl / Cmd + S to save metadata. the metadata will be incorporated into files. Note that the image will not be altered. In other words, if you view the jpeg format in an external viewer, you will not see adjustments made in Lightroom. Only Adobe products can interpred those.

    Can I then open it with a 'normal' program and have it show the original?

    Yes.

    Can I open it with Lightroom/Photoshop (?) so it shows the original with the change data applied?

    Yes. When you open in Photoshop, and it's a non - RAW (such as JPEG or TIFF) file, there is an option somewhere in Camera RAW to be used for the opening no-RAWs. The point is, those who must go through Camera RAW, instead opened directly in Photoshop, to correctly interpret metadata.

  • import 1 file to the wrong file. How to correct?

    import 1 file to the wrong file. How to correct?

    First of all, make sure that you have backups of all your photos before doing this.

    In Lightroom, drag the folder in the Control Panel folder to the new location of the file where you want it to be.

    Another method: in your operating system, COPY (and not move) the photos where you want them to be. then in Lightroom with the right button on the folder and select the folder location of updated and point to the new location of the photos; Once this does not work, delete pictures from their original location using your operating system.

  • can not import avi files in the pse12 catalogue

    I was wondering if anyone else is having a problem with import avi (my Nikon D5000 video files) in the catalogue of PSE 12.

    Windows 7 SP1 with all updates.

    The camera is a Nikon D5000

    type of file is AVI

    Whenever I go to import an AVI (my SD card or my HARD drive) Organizer comes up with the message that it has stopped working and windows is looking for a solution.

    I don't shoot much video so it is not a big concern, but it used to work in previous versions of the EP.

    Any help with this issue is appreciated.

    Ray

    I found it does not take much for the organizer of items 12 to shake an organizer of items received to close the message.

    Are you sure that there is one on a relationship between your import .avi files in the catalog and the message?

    I checked online and found that your camera is probably the record to give you the video files in MotionJPEG.avi. This can be a problematic format in time (especially on the forehead of Premiere Elements). Your camera is equipped with a utility that could introduce the video codec? Sometimes it's a draw on the question of whether the video codec is installed compared to the failure of the program to recognize.

    Later.

  • error. Cannot open the Lightroom Catalog

    Hello, I receive the error message: "the called Lightroom Catalog catalog Lightroom 5 cannot open another application already has its opening" at the opening of Lightroom. There is no other application don't use it. There is one file available, not back to the top I was download a catalog of 5.3 TB over the past 4 days and has not stopped. RAW files are sitting on a separate hard drive to the laptop where the Lightroom Catalog is. I can't access this catalog now. I had a crash before it happens... someone can help here?

    You must go to the folder where your catalog and look for a file with .lock extension. This file must be deleted, and then you can again use your catalog. Sometimes, if Lightroom closes abnormally, the lock file is not removed. And that's what causes this error message.

  • Failed to add audio files to the menu

    I followed all the normal steps. I dragged the audio file in the menu window, nothing will do. I dragged the link in the window of query to audio files in the project window and it does not appear in the audio area temporarily. But as soon as I select the new menu item, he says: audio: No.

    Help! It's ridiculous! Thank you!!

    It is the wma... But I finally solved the problem in the re-linking to the original file. God only knows why she had to be re-related, because he played very well in the preview area. But once re-related, the ability to drag and drop it in the menu has been restored.

  • How to move audio files of the program in the time line?

    All of a sudden I can't move audio files of the program in the time line - I read that Adobe said in previous forums click with the right button on the A1, but nothing in this discussion has helped me solve this problem. It was working before. I am a beginner user, so I could be missing something really obvious. My time scale is in blue. I noticed in some tutorial videos that it was yellow.

    Hi lauranoel,

    The reason is due to a bug, explained here: FAQ: why no audio or video will not at the track where I drop?

    Next time, just remove and In or Out to mark, and then drag the clip.

    Thank you

  • My Lightroom does not. It is showing the message - failed to open the Lightroom catalog called Catalog Lightroom because it is too new to be used by this version of Lightroom. You want to select a different catalog?

    My Lightroom does not. It is showing the message - failed to open the Lightroom catalog called Catalog Lightroom because it is too new to be used by this version of Lightroom. You want to select a different catalog?

    It is a catalog that you created on your computer, or coming from another computer?

    If it is one that has been created on your computer, you can search your computer to see if you have two different versions of Lightroom installed. If so, then you want to open the new version of Lightroom by double-clicking its icon, and then you should be able to open the catalog.
