Lightroom :: No Preview Rendering At All?
Dec 27, 2012
Yesterday when I was importing my pictures from the CF card the energy was off for a couple om minutes (a failure in the electrical net in the town) and the computer crashes (or something like that). When electricity came back I restarted LR and tried to import the images once again. Result: images are in the hard disk, they were imported correctly but no preview was rendered at all!. In the preview lrdata folder I can see two files root-pixels and root-pixels.db-journal that are there since yesterday (I do not know what they mean)...if I try to render previews from the Libray menu....nothing happens....seems that LR does not like to render previews from my most recent import..
I do not know what to do with the next import...so my new images are still in the corresponding CF card...

Importing ceases during the rendering preview process at image 2 of set. Same if using SD or Flash Cards, small or large import. No problems using Bridge so reader is operational.

I am using Autocad 2011, when I do a render nothing appears in the Render window. I have material applied to the solids, but the window remains black.

sometimes rendering the RAM-Preview takes some time. while waiting I would like at least to read some articles on the internet. But as soon as I click into an other windows, AE stops rendering.
is there a special setting / workaround to avoid this (user-unfriendly behavior) ?

I recently bought a Nikon D7100. I took some test shots and imported the images to Lightroom 4.4, then generated 1:1 previews for all the images.
Previews zoomed to 1:1 in Library Mode are noticeably soft. The image below is a screen shot of the Library preview:
Moving to Develop View produces a higher-resolution 1:1 preview. The image below is a screen shot of the Develop preview:
Look at the bricks and window screens to see the difference.
This difference occurs immediately after import (with a User Preset applied during import). Once any Develop work is done, the Library preview updates and displays at full resolution.
This problem makes doing initial editing/selection of images time consuming, because I can't determine the sharpness/quality of imported images until I've done some kind of Develop adjustment on each image.

I am using MacBook (late 2008) OS X 10.9.2 and recently upgraded to Lightroom 5.3 from Lightroom 4. After a while, some photo started to show exclamation mark at the right hand corner of the photo (*.CR2 raw files in NAS) in grid view. When I click on the exclamation mark, it shows a dialog with following message; "Lightroom has encountered problems reading this photo". So, I moved previews.lrdata, which is about 9GB, to the trash and restarted the Lightroom 5, expecting Lightroom 5 to create a new previews.lrdata. However, it won't create any preview at all.
exclamation mark at the top right hand corner of the photos in grid view.
size of Previews.lrdata file stops at 152KB.

Just downloaded LR 5 and noticed that I cannot jump back from a Publish Service folder preview to a different folder preview in grid mode. The only way to view photos in another folder is to restart LR 5. This only happens when I am viewing photos in a Publish Service such as Flickr.
I updated from LR 4 using Creative Cloud installer.

LR Rendered my D3 and D3s Raw files very closely to the Nikon software and the camera jpgs, but since I have started using a D4, I am noticing a dissapointing difference between the LCD rendering, the jpgs. and the LR raw rendering of my files. I think I last saw this in LR2, with early D3 files, but it's been a while.
So if I shoot a NEF file and a JPG file at the same time, the JPG files look really good, the same sweet goodness I saw on the LCD. Now I have been doing this a while, and I know about camera profiles, custom camera profiles, and that Raw files need a little massaging, but I don't want to break out the nikon software to get the best results from my raw files, and that's what I have been doing lately on my final picks.
I am attaching a sample. Left - Right, in camera jpg, jpg from view nx2, LR jpg from untouched nef (camera standard profile). You will notice the skin tones and the dynamic range are best on the left, in camera jpg.

I am having problems with LR5.2RC rendering a substantial number of my .dng files in monochrome. There appears to be no logic to this, and files appear in colour in Finder. I am using an iMac with Mountain Lion.

I was very happy with the color profiles available in the LR3 version, to use with Nikon raw files (from a D700 camera). I managed to have almost the same color and contrast impression as the ones delivered by Nikon RAW software (Capture NX), using camera standard color profile. And the workflow is thus much easier woth LR3.But lately I discovered some problem for average grey value as seen on the comparaison of the same image processed by the 2 software below :
extract at 100% scale of the image processed by LR (using camera standard profile).The same image processed with Capture NX :You can see that the grey are purple, and event almost green in some areas. I had already noticed few years ago a some problem with LR2, but I thought the problem was gone with LR3. Now it is back with LR3.5 --? This color problem does not happen when using ACR 4.6 rendering in LR, but the global color impression is different. I must had that except from this, the global color rendering is very close to NX.

I am running Windows 7. I have been using Lightroom 4 for several days with no problem. Today it stopped rendering previews. When importing for a card or adding from a drive the files get added but then the program says "Rendering Standard Previews" but they never render. You can see the images in Develop but the previews do not stay.
I have tried deleting and reinstalling the program. That didn't work.
I went back and tried Lightroom 3 with the same setup and it worked fine. I tried this in case it was a drive problem.

Lightroom 4 is constantly put down as being very poor at rendering Fujifilm X Trans RAW files. Fujifilm claims to have assisted Adobe with this new sensor design yet LR falls down hard. Why is that? Will it get better or are we stuck with what LR can do now?

I successfully created and uploaded a book to Blurb a few months ago. I edited a little bit of text and tried uploading again, and now I'm getting an error message that photos can't be rendered. I'm at a loss about what this message means. I'm in Lightroom 5.0 now.

I moved from Windows to Mac. Today I imported a set of photos from my camera to my disk. After rendering all of my photos became B&W (LR4 changed color treatment of my RAW files). It surprised me a lot. I did it again and again. All my photos are B&W. I have to change color treatment in all of them. I would prefer my old importing scheme (photos are color after rendering). I did not use any preset and all oprions were as usual (only changed a name of photos).
I noticed that LR4 changed a few other options: decreased highlights by 100, increased shadow by 100, increased clarity by 50, changed tone curve to strong contrast, increase sharpening to 100, noise reduction to 40, and so on. Increadible! How can I came back to my way of importing?

OK i have been running LR4 fine and upgraded when needed. I'm currently on 4.4 and all has been well until now. When viewing images they don't look sharp! Before when clicking on a thumbnail the image would pop up all fuzzy then get sharp real quick....always has done. This also happens when zooming in to the image, it just looks fuzzy, it does not click into a sharp image to work on, the images come up but don't get sharp. Also there is not always a thumbnail in the top left above the presets. Also if you add a preset the image just disappears!! Sometimes there is just no image at all. I have deleted all references that I can find to LR on my PL including the catalogs and have re loaded LR inc the upgrade plus created a new catalog but the problem still persists.!

LR works with the color space ProPhotoRGB. With highly saturated colors this colorspace is larger than AdobeRGB and sRGB. As I see it now is that while exporting to these color spaces, Lightroom uses the method as in Photoshop called Convert to Profile, which maintains the color appearance, but shifts the color numbers. High saturated colors will be clipped. Is this assumption correct? Is it possible to use in Lightroom the method Assign Profile, where the color numbers (and detail) are maintained?

I just got a Sigma dp1x. LR renders all my x3f raw files black. A normal preview will show up, but when I attempt to edit the photo, the picture goes completely black. I am running LR4.1 and ACR 7.1 win 7.

I usually import my pictures and ask LR to generate standard previews at the same time, which is fine for a full screen preview.When going to loupe view and zooming, LR inevitably processes a 1:1 view. This is fine for me. However, after scrolling on other pictures and going back to the same exact picture which has already been 1:1 rendered, LR displays the 'Loading' message and actually proceed to another 1:1 rendering. It doesn't take advantage of the cache even though 1. dat files are present in the ACR cache directory 2. I flushed the cache and tried again 3. I set a higher limit (20 GB).I'm running LR 3.5 on Windows 7 x64.

I have just bough a Fuji F770 EXR camera. I took few pictures in RAW + JPG and RAW onluy mode in low light.Some part of the RAW (RAF) file rendering show completely desaturated areas using the Rendering 2012 and 2010.Ex: a green shirt and an orange shoes appear grey.
This does not happen if I set LR to use the 2002 engine. Of Course this engine shows less details and more color noise.Is there any way I can send the sample RAF file so that an engineer so that he can have a look at it?

I´m quite frustrated after discovering that some of my images look quite poor displayed by the slideshow module. My situation ist as follows:
LR 5.2 running on Mac OS X 10.8.5, 1:1 previews are rendered, preview quality is set to high, and I´m using a sample image showing a dark cloudy sky with some fine gradients; my slideshow preset doesn´t use any borders as I read this often causes quality issues.
When I´m in the Develop module, there is no problem at all, even in fullscreen display mode on my 1920x1200 display the gradients are perfectly rendered.
In Library module, when displaying fullscreen, quality is okay, but I can see some slight difference compared to the Develop module - which I understand after reading that in Develop the output is based on the actual raw data, and in all the other modules on rendered previews.
Now, when in Slideshow module, the image quality is significantly lower than in Library and I see some quite obvious banding in the gradients. I don´t have problems with blocking artifacts but the banding/posterization is considerably worse compared to a JPEG export with a quality setting of, for example, 75.
I can´t imagine LR´s slideshow tool would be working with a lower color depth than the 8 bit as in standard JPEGs, right? Did I miss any of LR´s parameters that influence the image quality of Lightroom slideshows or of the previews used therefore? Otherwise do you have some other explanations or hints for me in order to get this fixed? We do everything to capture our images in the best possible quality so we should also be able to present them properly after all...

I have noticed this as an occasional random ongoing problem in Lightroom and just encountered it again in LR 5, running on Win 7 64 on a 30" 2560x1600 monitor. While the develop view renders properly, the louple view is very soft. Here is an example:
1:1 from Develop
1:1 from loupe
There is no indication that you need to wait for the final rendering and the image never gets sharper. Zooming in and out does not fix the rendering in loupe view. Resizing the lightroom window to a smaller size does not work. Rebuilding 1:1 previews does not work.
The only thing that works is to close and reopen Lightroom. It appears that some flag in the program instructing the loupe rerender sometimes does not get set.
This is a serious problem because a user could easily decide to delete an image based on the loupe view. This has forced me to preview all my images in PhotoMechanic. I simply cannot rely on Lightroom.
This is a difficult problem to reproduce as it seems to happen randomly. In a search and based on recollection, the zoom in and out seemed to fix.

I just checked whether the update to 5.2 would improve speed of rendering images in the Develop module for Nikon D800 NEF files but alas, LR is still taking its time to render images and going back and forth between two or more D800 NEF files to check focus at 100% magnification remains an excercise in meditation....
I had initially hoped that the move from LR 4.x to LR 5 would improve things but this wasn't the case - so when will Adobe finally catch up with the development in cameras with ever bigger files? The Nikon D800 came out one full year ago...

Just as a pre-amble, I love LR and perform 90% of image processing with it (rest in PS). I use a Canon EOS 5D MKIII shooting in RAW, running LR5 on Win7. My monitor is properly calibrated.
Every so often I view a RAW image with Canon DPP mostly to display the AF point. What I am noticing is that the DPP SW renders the image very different from LR and I tried every LR Profile. In my opinion the DPP rendering is sharper, with less noise and a more natural look. My latest example of the difference in image rendering is from images taken with the Canon 200-400 1.4 zoom lens. This difference in image rendering is after RAW import with no images editing on either application. I just wish there would be a LR profile that yields a similar quality image.

Slow rendering image previews in import dialogue?
My LR 5 is as slow as a snail generating those previews.
Importing my RAWs form the EOS 6D (saved on a 95MB/s 32 BG SanDisk Extreme Pro) it renders only the 12 or 24 displayed previews and leaves out the rest (the next only when I'm scrolling down). For 12 images LR5 needs 8-10 seconds. LR4.4 does the same process for all 150 RAWs in 1-2 seconds.
It doesn't matter if I want to import to my workstation (Dell Precision T1650, 8core Intel Xeon E3-1240 V2, 16GB RAM, 64bit) via USB 3.0 (Reader & Port) or to my laptop (Dell Latitude E6400). So it must be LR, not my hardware.
Are there known issues with the Canon-RAW format? I just updated EOS firmware to 1.1.3, but the renderspeed stays the same. For 1 image 3-4 seconds single...

I'm running Lightroom 3.6 on Windows XP. My laptop crashed and I had to re-install Lightroom. When I try to import my photos, I'm receiving "Preview is not available for this file".
Lightroom was working perfectly before the crash and I don't quite understand what happened during the install process.
