P: Issues with DNG Flat Field Plug-in

Hello, 
I am using the DNG Flat Field Plug-in for Adobe Lightroom. 
It has worked flawlessly for since January, but now I'm getting errors, when I try to apply it. 
I have already tried to reinstall the plugin, but this does not solve the issue. 

I get the error message, attached below. 
The error only occurs, when GPS data is attached to the dng files. As the plugin was last updated 2013, I think, there's a incapability causing this issue. 

As this plugin is necessary for people using technical cameras like me, it would be great if you could update the plugin, so that it works without hassle with the Lightroom CC 2015. 
Maybe you could also code the feature inside of Lightroom. 

Thanks very much!
Kind regards, Sebastian

    Tried with a new reinstall of LR and the plugin on my MacPro which is on OSX 10.11.6. Didn ́t solve it. However the plugin works fine on my laptop which still is on OSX10.11.5. I guess the problem arise when I upgraded OSX. Please check if that is the case. Thanks!

    Hi.
    I ́m having the same problem as above. Using a technical camera with a Hasselblad back. Used to work fine just a week ago to correct my dng ́s both interleaved and with external correction. Now no external corrections work anymore. I ́m on Mac10.11.5 and LR2015.6.

    Would be great if you could implement this plugin into LR in future release since many Technical Camera users rely on this plugin preferably also with a shortcut command. Thanks!

    Link to files to try:

     Interleaved correction doesn't work too (message "No calibration image detected").
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Hi Phillipe,

    I've confirmed that the Flat Field plug-in is not auto-detecting your calibration image (after conversion to DNG) when using the "apply interleaved correction" menu command. I was however able to apply the correction using the "apply external correction" command and choosing the calibration image manually. We will look into the issue concerning auto-detection, but in the meantime, you may want to try using the "apply external correction" command as a workaround.

    Phillipe, would you be willing to share with us one of your images that yields the error? You can send it via a Creative Cloud shared folder, Dropbox or similar.

    I am liking the new features, and the revamped transform is in the right direction! Back to flat field, I am wishing there was a way to apply the field with out creating a new file. I make panos with a shift lens, and really use the FF (or LCC in another program) so its way too many files to keep and keep track of. Especially in a production environment.
