    Import sort photos taken within the same second by time

    When importing photos into lightroom, I rename them based on timestamp plus a couter, but it only includes up to seconds and not milli seconds. I do not see a way to use millis second during the import process. As a result, photos show up out of sequence in the library module. Is there a...

    If I have 100+ photos of groups of people facing the camera, is there a lightroom plugin or tool, that will color label any photo with at least one person not looking into the camera or have the eyes closed? With the advancement in AI, I m hoping something is available or under development...

    Develop module Different sections of preset?

    When importing a lightroom preset into lightroom classic, most of them appear under the preset section. But I notice that some will appear at the bottom of the preset section with a horizontal line above and they can not be renamed. Is there a way to move them back to the normal preset...

    Develop module Image is turn 90 degree after edit in develop mode

    PS is up to date; re-read meta data from file didn't help. However I found a way. Remove photo from catalog, and synchronize folder (to reimport file back to LR). Its not ideal because all develop settings are gone, but I can not find any other way.

    Using the latest version of LR on a Windows 10 machine. All the edited vertical images are turned 90 degree and become horizontal in develop mode. No issue in library mode. Here is how to reproduce the problem on my end: - import a few portait orientation jpeg images - right click and do...

    JPG files and slow

    I changed a bunch of things and the navigation/zoom issue seems to have disappeared. Here is what I did, not sure which one(s) resolved it: disable gpu under camera raw, purge camera raw/video cache under system, preferences disable all plugins (only had 3) disable all the address lookup/auto...

    JPG files and slow

    Windows 10, latest LR, is there a way to improve the performance of navigating and exporting jpeg files? I can flip thru jpeg files on a normal windows file viewer without any lags, but in LR, even without any settings applied, it will take1-2 seconds. If I were to zoom in 100%, it may takes 5...

    Sync Syncing is spotty with the latest version of lightroom

    I m now on 12.2.1, problem is still there, and the work around above doesn't seem to work all the time. Sometime I had to open LR on both desktop and mobile, and restart each one and hope they sync. I submitted a support ticket to adobe last month and all I get is a generic response...

    Sync Syncing is spotty with the latest version of lightroom

    Yes, I found a workaround, and it is to 'touch' the collection, by navigating it.

    Develop module Force all lens profiles to appear?

    Running the latest LR classic on windows 11, I am unable to manually apply a lens profile to non-raw files. Specially, on the develop module, the lens profile drop down list only contains a few choices, compare to over 30 options when viewing a raw file. Is there a way to make this drop down...

    Library module How to sync collections between categories?

    LR 11.5 on windows 10, let say I have 3 seperate catalgories, if I create a smart collection in the first catalog, how do I copy this collection to the other rest of the catalog? I believe smart collections are sync when you import photos from one catalog to another, but what if I do not...

    Develop module Bulk HDR or pano

    LR 11.5 on windows 10, I have a bunch of bracketed and pano images. Instead of selecting each set, and apply HDR/Pano, is there a way to select all images and let LR decide which group of images to do HDR/pano (perhaps by timestamp, or some other metadata)? Use case: real estate projects

    Library module Bulk adjust timestamp no longer works?

    Found a way, not sure if its the best way but here it is: in lib mode, select all images to change, go to metadata tab, look for capture time, click on the 3 dot button, time changed there will apply to all selected images

    Library module Bulk adjust timestamp no longer works?

    LR 11.5 on windows 10, I selected several photos, went to metadata, edit capture time, adjust to specified date and time, only the timestamp of the first selected photo was updated. I can tell because the option 'revert to original timestamp' is only visible for the first photo but not the...

    Export Disable parallel jpeg export?

    Thats exactly what I am doing, the file name are in order, but the final destination of these photos are to be displayed on google photo which only support sorting by timestamp. I suppose I can look for another free gallery tool to display photos privately (suggestions?) or a lightroom plugin...

    Export Disable parallel jpeg export?

    Using the latest version of LR on windows 10, when I export say 100 files to jpeg, I notice that the exported file timestamp is not in sequence. That is, file 1 may have a timestamp later than file 10. I believe lightroom is exporting files in parallel hence the timestamps are all over the...

    Catalogs Using LR to organize video clips?

    So I tested out the process of using LR to organize videos. I m running with the latest LR update on windows 10. The video clips are 20s clips from DSLR (mp4 format). I notice LR is doing some processing of the clips before I can see them and that took a long time. I suppose it is trying to...

    Catalogs Using LR to organize video clips?

    I have a few thousand video clips from various sources such as DSLR, go pro etc. I tried using bridge to organize but find its takes too long to load and the keywording tool too hard to use. I m wondering if lightroom classic will be a good option and if there are any things to look out for?
