Hi,

I was trying to load raw files from Iphone and LRTimelapse could not make previews etc.

I would like to have the opportunity to work with .dng Iphone files.


Thank you
Most likely those DNG files do not have previews embedded.
You have two options:
Either use Lightroom to embed the previews via Metadata/Update DNG Preview and Metadata
or (recommended)
In LRTimelapse from 4.7.5 LRTimelapse will create those previews. It's not the fastest process, but once they are created they will be cached.
Thank you for your fast reply, it is working
I was not aware that iPhones could produce RAW files - only JPG or PNGs.  

You can use Lightroom to take a JPG and make a DNG file - I know that trick - but what's the sitch w/ LR Timelapse?  How does that fit into the equation?
If you convert JPGs into DNG in Lightroom, they will have previews embedded.
As some Android Phones the latest iPhones now can record DNG directly. Obviously the iPhones seem to save the DNGs without preview. That's where my recommendations above apply to.
