I have this on my agenda and will see what I can do for the next version.

Hi Gunther,

I've got the same problem -but: I've already upgraded to 4.03- my sequence folder does not contain any special characters. The log file is telling me that there is a permission issue with dng converter (ver. 9.0).. any idea? I would need to deflicker my sequence..

Maybe you could try trashing the DNG Converter, clear trash, restarting the system and installing the DNG converter again?

Hi,

no, unfortunately that did not fix the issue.. I also repaired the permissions in the disk utility.. nothing.

UPDATE: I downgraded to 4.02 just to test and voilá: it workes! So I think there is still an issue with 4.03..

Best

how did you downgrade? I'm having the same issue

I still had the old version on my hard drive.. I don't know if I'm allowed to send it around, maybe you should ask Gunther for it.

Maybe you could try copying the DNG Converter to another location (your user directory for example) and then change the path in the LRTimelapse settings to that directory.
I don't think, this is a general Problem in 4.0.3 - most of the users don't have any problems.

I've just experienced the same problem on upgrade. 4.0.2 worked fine in this regard, Visual Preview seems to do nothing in 4.0.3. I just sent in a log file. Thx.

Like I already wrote via email: check the path to the DNG Converter in the LRTimelapse settings under "External Programs". It should point to your installed DNG converter.

I investigated that "Permission Denied" issue. It occurs, if you change the path in the DNG Converter in the LRT Settings and point it directly to the app. Instead it should be:

/Applications/Adobe DNG Converter.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe DNG Converter

so if you put your Adobe DNG Converter.app somewhere else, don't forget to add the "/Contents/MacOS/Adobe DNG Converter" after the .app.
