Adobe Lightroom[views:1806][posts:56]______________________________________ [Dec 31,2008 6:16pm - the_reverend ""] I just reinstalled version 2.0 on to my desktop. I'm scanning my harddrive with all my photos on it. last time I did this with vers 1.0, it killed my hard drive. |
| _____________________________ [Dec 31,2008 6:29pm - pam ""] Works great for me, I fucking love LR. |
| _____________________________ [Dec 31,2008 6:29pm - pam ""] then again I don't have 8 million photos. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 31,2008 6:45pm - the_reverend ""] it's 2% imported. the reason I'm doing it is cause I started to synch my photos onto my iPod and my new desktop is getting set up to have everything synch through it, be a media server, etc... I'm going to make it make playlists for each show that I shoot or set of pictures that I take and then synch the last month or two worth of pictures. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 31,2008 8:49pm - the_reverend ""] 12% done. heh... |
| _____________________________ [Dec 31,2008 8:54pm - pam ""] ouch |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 31,2008 8:59pm - the_reverend ""] I have 2x1.5 with the data mirrored across them... I need to figure out how to get LR to mirror for me, I guess |
| _______________________________________ [Dec 31,2008 10:28pm - the_reverend ""] 16% |
| _______________________________________ [Dec 31,2008 10:29pm - the_reverend ""] the worst part is this system only has 1GB RAM right now (1GB went bad and the 4GB I bought for this doesn't work for this system) |
| _______________________________________ [Dec 31,2008 11:24pm - the_reverend ""] 20% |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 12:16am - the_reverend ""] 22% |

| _____________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 2:55am - the_reverend ""] 26% |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 9:35am - the_reverend ""] 27%... seriously. |

| _____________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 9:48am - the_reverend ""] yeah, tell me about it. I ended up turning the system off a couple minutes ago. going to put back in the "bad" RAM and see if that works. |
| ________________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 9:52am - Conservationist ""] the_reverend said:yeah, tell me about it. I ended up turning the system off a couple minutes ago. going to put back in the "bad" RAM and see if that works. All through this holiday season, I've had the RAM jones so bad I can taste it (literally -- I think I bit my tongue). When is more RAM worse? Very rarely... When is more RAM better? Almost always... What's the best way to speed up a PC? Faster HD and more RAM... and in some cases, faster RAM. I won't be happy until I stuff each machine with at least 4 GB and stick a boot SSD in each. Since you work with big-ass photos, you need the RAM more than most. It's certainly deductible. It's most likely also going to reduce stress and constipation in your life. It could even get you on YouTube. |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 10:13am - the_reverend ""] if you have an SSD designed right, why do you need RAM at all?!? |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 10:17am - the_reverend ""] hilarious... the other 1GB stick just worked again... |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 10:20am - the_reverend ""] naw, it just died. |
| _________________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 11:20am - Conservationist ""] the_reverend said:if you have an SSD designed right, why do you need RAM at all?!? Good point. |
| _________________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 11:21am - Conservationist ""] the_reverend said:naw, it just died. It worked and then died? The 1066-to-800 mhz? I would investigate BIOS settings here... |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 11:34am - the_reverend ""] no, it's old 533MHz. I have 2x1GB Ocz tech and one of those doesn't work. the 2x2GB 1066 is still at my work since it doesn't work. All new egg will do with it is exchange it. |
| _________________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 11:52am - Conservationist ""] I like the OCZ RAM I've encountered. Some boards require a certain speed of memory in bank 0, but get flexible in bank 1. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 5:08pm - the_reverend ""] I have 4 banks. maybe I will try a 533 in bank 0, and then 1066 in bank 2, |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 5:09pm - the_reverend ""] btw: I started the re-import. 2% now. |
| ___________________________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 5:25pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] What IS adobe lightroom? |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 9:35pm - the_reverend ""] 3%... it's a program that auto-catalogs all your photos and you can get statistics on photo usage, lens usage, camera usage, etc... you can also make libraries that you can load up on your ipod, etc. |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 10:30pm - the_reverend ""] 4% |
| __________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 10:53pm - dertoxia ""] theres no way it should be taking that long |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 11:14pm - the_reverend ""] still at 4% |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 1,2009 11:15pm - the_reverend ""] I just order 4GB of 800mhz for $14 |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 2,2009 7:28am - the_reverend ""] 6% |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 2,2009 7:47pm - the_reverend ""] 18%... but I order that RAM yesterday and it's here today. so I'm putting that in. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 2,2009 7:51pm - the_reverend ""] OF FUCKING COURSE. I put in the 800Mhz RAM and it just constantly reboots. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 11:41am - porphyria ""] version 2.2 has a memory leak (confirmed in the adobe forums). Upon trying to export large quantities of images the amount of RAM LR uses increases slowly up to 100% causing a crash. I reverted back to version 2.1 and it works again except the adjustment brushes run slow and the graduated filter sometimes causes LR to crash. Hope they release a 2.3 fix soon. |
| _______________________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 11:59am - IllinoisEnemaBradness ""] upgraid yer flux capasiter |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 12:03pm - boblovesmusic ""] And reverse the polarity |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 12:23pm - the_reverend ""] 50% |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 12:25pm - the_reverend ""] so does lightroom actually change the files? that's what I'm not understanding. Keywords, etc.. are just added to the catalog files, right? |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 12:31pm - porphyria ""] catalog files/xmp files is all it changes. |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 12:31pm - the_reverend ""] oh so it does undersant xmp's? what if you have xmp's from PS already? |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 12:32pm - the_reverend ""] this is adobe trying to keep up with NX 1.0... they sort of did it better cause they worked in the bridge interface that NX lost with view being a separate app. |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 12:34pm - the_reverend ""] I was also an idiot and made my main drive 50GB with 300GB data... need to move the catalog files to the data drive. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 12:35pm - porphyria ""] yes, when I imported files from my laptop into my desktop catalog it imported the xmp data as well. I still need to figure out how to get that process to go smoother so I don't lose any changes to files when doing anything on my laptop and bringing it home. |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 12:36pm - the_reverend ""] right. I'm curious about auto cataloging the images are I copy them to my back up. |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 12:39pm - the_reverend ""] 52% |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 12:40pm - porphyria ""] there's an option to 'import from catalog', not sure if I used that option or not...hmm. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 12:41pm - porphyria ""] could be a way to merge another catalog into another... |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 12:43pm - the_reverend ""] the reason I'm doing it is so I can get stats and there is an option with itunes to synch libraries... like all pictures of the past month. though I wish it would auto catalog every day for the past month. |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 1:12pm - porphyria ""] itunes is a piece of shit, I want as little to do with that program enough...having to use it for my iphone is already too much itunes for me. fuck! |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 3,2009 1:15pm - the_reverend ""] 54% I need itune for my iPod. since I can synch photos too, I want to synch the last months worth of pictures. The only problem is that the libraries that it has are completely hard to go through unless you load from separate libraries when you are adding files. |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 4,2009 11:46am - the_reverend ""] 556488 pictures over 10 years. it found 6905 duplicates from 2001. it found 31 corrupt files. I need to try to find the originals now. I think I have some ooooold back ups somewheres. The files appear to be unsupported or damaged.
