Hi all,
I've been using LR-timelapse for a while and have had a reasonable amount of success with day to night transitions, however my last attempt is having significant issues when I drag the sequence into lightroom to edit the keyframes. After importing, the photos appear to have a filter applied when the metadata is read, changing both the wb and exposure - it seems to be affecting different parts of the sequence differently, ranging from about +0.5 ev to what looks to be about +2.5 ev.
If I 'reset' the edit, it looks like it should it did when first imported/before metadata has been read.
The difficulty is really that I can't see any global adjustments before I reset edits, but the change is very obvious. Editing the keyframes to the preferred look works in lightroom, but as soon as I reload into lr-timelapse, the overexposure problem comes back, meaning that everything is blown out/huge amounts of noise when I re-load the meta-data for visual preview and then export.
Any thoughts?
I've updated to 4.8 from 4.78 - issue was present in both for this sequence. I've tried about 5 times restarting from scratch without any luck
Using the latest Adobe Classic CC
Many thanks for any help - I'm really keen to work this one out so I can work on a few projects I have sitting there
Edit: So I removed the first 30 frames were the exposure was brighter and while it's still occurring, it's manageable overall - it's almost like the software is trying to keep the effective 'brightness' of the first frame close to the same for the whole sequence - is this normal? Haven't struck it before but I usually expose for the sun rather than blowing out the sun and exposing for the foreground like I did here
