P: DNG Converter: Enable JPG conversion

I don't claim to be an expert in this area. But if you want to convert from raw to JPEG  immediately without any postprocessing, why not just shoot JPEG in the first place?

That request is precisely because we don't want to convert from raw to jpeg immediately without any processing. It's because we have different workflow reasons to batch process jpegs to DNG for ulterior processing. I suggest that you read the first posts for examples.

I support Gunther's request. It is a workflow issue, not an issue of inherent image quality or the availability of other tools.

I support Gunther's request, and i want to this improvement.

Robert, this is for the worldwide renown LRTimelapse workflow many pro's work with including NASA for ISS footage and some hollywood studios. Thank you.

No, this won't do it, since I need the possibility to trigger the conversion via DNG Converter in bakground by LRTimelapse.

With Bridge and ACR you can batch convert JPG to DNG.  Select the JPG's in Bridge, select open in Camera RAW, then select Save Image select DNG as he Format and hit save.  Not quite as productive as using the DNG converter but close.  Maybe this helps the Time Lapse folks?

Great idea! Hopefully, this feature will be released in the next update.

please implement this update to the DNG converter

Please implement this adobe. Sure raws are great but I've got lots of timelapses I am doing with gopro(due to space contraints) and really this would make a huge difference to me. Surely I'm not the only one and it appears from Gunthers comments, it appears not too big a step to take in development. 

Please adobe - you've got my subscription now listen to the community. Otherwise what are we paying for
