I don't have time to play around with the image, but if this is what happens in the blue channel in low-light, then the cellphone makers will have known that, and tailored their JPEG algorithms ...

Raw development halos are normally created across dark-light edges. They come from neighbour-pixel contrast-enhancing algorithms such as sharpening and clarity, accentuated by contrast adjustment ...

The jump on mouse-button release occurs on both my Mac and Win installations (which are two completely different platforms, machines vintages, mice, etc. i.e. this is nothing to do with graphics ...

In latest ACR on Mac and Win if I select the spot removal tool, and then right mouse click and hold in the active image area and then drag left or right and then release I get the same as per your ...

If you were using a version of Adobe DNG convertor which supports your raw files - i.e. you are successfuly making DNG files, then you should not get an error: https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb ...

Scrolling images in Library does not use GPU (or at least it did not). GPU is only used in Develop: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1828580?tstart=0 (Initial words are from Eric Chan who works for ...

What happens if you turn off GPU acceleration in LR? If it still blinks, it's not GPU problem. If it blinks without GPU acceleration on, it could be a disk or disk-controller issue, but you would ...

The reference for Photoshop vs Lightroom JPEG compression is as Digidog has linked - i.e Jeffrey Friedl's work - though it seems Jeffrey's site is off-line at the moment (some family emergency ...

Depends what you want to do. These are good summaries of the options from Julieanne Kost at Adobe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mPXbQqjpGs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1avniKzEvQ&feature=yo ...

Yes - my LR does also for the HDR merge. Not checked the Pano. I'd noticed before. I think it's something that's appeared only in the latest versions of LR - my backup software picked it up. I ...

Feels more like something Photoshop (i.e. the plug-in folders) really than something Nik as such: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/plug-ins-photoshop-troubleshooting.html#locate_plug-in_folders ...

Maybe it's an obvious sequence of things to do but.... I would uninstall (there is uninstaller in your Nik Collection folder in Applications). Then start PS and then quit PS. Then use disk utiility ...

Actually HDR Efex is the one that does install an Export/Import Plug-in to Lightroom. The other Nik's (as they are operating on single files) use Presets that are created on their install. The ...

Unfortunately the OP has not told us what format files he has in LR and what format files he is trying to then open from LR into CS6. If the OP is opening (= LR's Edit In Photoshop menu) already ...

In your other thread I said use the Save As option (it's on the HDREfex File menu) to put the tone-map output file where you want. :-) (All this lack of proper file open and file save dialogues is ...

Not that I can ever remember, no. I have both Google Nik Collection, and then also the earlier Nik Suite from Nik Software (same programs), and I think I have never had to install those directly ...

I mean the Nik applications operating system icon. Each Nik program is a separate program under the operating system - pretty sure that's how they always install. I use Mac and the Nik Collection ...
