I too have been very confused by this discussion. The above is written with a smile, not a frown. I.e.: Jude Law and Sienna Miller or d’antan Hugh Grant and Elizabeth Hurley. Of course this illogical situation happens almost every day. Unless there are plans to radically change pricing and positioning, siding with the existing paying users would be both ethically better and commercially wiser.ĭxO PhotoLab’s situation with its userbase reminds one of the husband of ten years abandoning his exquisitely beautiful and scintillating wife to chase after a common or even vulgar young nanny. I’m curious to know if they made a dent in in the Lightroom userbase or not with that big promotion. Phase One just had a go at pulling users out of Adobe, with an extended half price sale to bring in Sony and Fuji users.

Never forget the existing Photographer’s Package includes a full copy of Photoshop.

the last people to leave Adobe software behind. would not pay that kind of money for software 2. The question is does DxO throw its existing users to the wolves in the pursuit of potential users in the hopes of attracting users who 1. The Lightroom users (most of whom would never drop €200 in a single purchase for any software, particularly if it doesn’t have the name Adobe on it) targeted by DxO marketing would probably prefer the monolith. PhotoLab doesn’t know which one it wants to be and has been walking the fence for the last couple of years.įor most existing users (we’ve all paid a pretty penny for the privilege), playing well with others and compatibility with other software and storing settings separately from a database are extremely important. Iridient Developer is an example of clearly the latter. The deeper issue here is the conflict within DxO to make PhotoLab some kind of monolith program like Lightroom which demands that every other program be subordinate to it and runs off of a huge database or to carry on with a RAW developer which interacts well with other software and stores its data within the file system (.dop and. Decisions carefully made save users time. Steve Jobs stressed that it’s the developer’s job where possible to make intelligent choices for the end user. If a photographer has chosen to use XMP and DOP sidecars the XMP rating should always be overwritten.Ĭonsistent behaviour is often more useful to the end user than flexible behaviour. This an unnecessary and confusing preference.

We should add preference options and let user decide for automatically overwrite XMP sidecar or not.

I hope a few words above can help a little bit This is the way PL working for rating, in the first state, we respect XMP rating until you change it in PL.Ībout XMP writing, this is a future feature, we have already this one in the backlog and will let you know when we get back on keyword implementation. *if Exif rating = 2 stars, XMP rating = 3 stars, then we rate 4 stars in PL -> final rating = 4 stars in PL -> output image rating = 4 stars *if Exif rating = 2 stars, XMP rating = 3 stars -> final rating = 3 stars in PL (stars with yellow color and explanation tooltip will be displayed when you mouse over on) -> output image rating = 3 stars

What is priority for rating? PL > XMP > Exif.

(for example, if rating of input image in PL is 2 stars, 2 stars can be imported from XMP sidecar or from Exif or directly set in PL, output image will also have 2 stars)

It’s independant with "“Preserve metadata in XMP sidecars for RAW images” option, so any this option enabled or disabled, rating of output image will be imported from rating of input image in PL.

Moreover, how we understand RATING behavior when working with image files associated with XMP sidecar ?

If you disable this option, only a few basic information of xmp sidecar will be exported to output image.

If you enable this option, all information in xmp sidecar will be preserved in your output image.

XMP sidecar contents not only Rating or Author/Copyright information, but there are a lot of other information in xmp sidecars as well. To be clear on this option, i’d like to explain what does it mean this option “Preserve metadata in XMP sidecars for RAW images” in Processing session. Thank you for the feedback on this preference option.
