Question

Download full size RAW data for a hole album

Hello everyone,

 

I just got my new Samsung Galaxy Tab s7 and I planned to work on the tablet as well as lightroom classic cc on the desktop. 

The problem I have is that from the moment I import the images into Lightroom Mobile on the tablet they are moved to the cloud. That would be fine but from that moment on Mobile uses the cloud flies only. 

 

I want to edit the full-size RAW and not the smart preview while I'm offline.

 

I turned the "only download smart-previews" option off.

The only way to store the original full-size file on the tablet is to open each file individually. 

 

Is there a way to download all full-size files from an entire album at once? 

 

Stay healthy, Sam

This is how I understand your situation! (I might be wrong!)

For Lightroom-Classic and Lightroom-Mobile versions you will need a subscription to the Photography Plan (20Gb)

When you Import (Add) camera files to the Samsung Device (running Lightroom-Mobile for Android) you will use the option-

"Store Locally - Select this option to locally store the photos contained in the album you are in."

Without personal experience I presume this means- "edit the full-size RAW ...while I'm offline." with the Samsung Galaxy.

Lightroom-Classic, when the SYNC option is turned on, will automatically download, from the Cloud, (a copy) of the Full-size raw files to the hard-drive where they will always be available to Edit in LrC at any time.

Hey Wobert,

 

the way you explained it would also be the way I would understand the program. 

 

But the problem is that when you import images into Lightroom CC (on the Tablet or Desktop) the original file loads into the cloud. After that Lightroom Mobile always uses the file in the cloud even if it's on the device as a full size raw.

 

If you download an album in the Mobile version that only includes the Smart Preview. 

When you are connected to the internet and you open an image it will download the full-size file onto the tablet. 

 

My problem is that I cant open every image to get the original downloaded. 

The possibility to download the full-size file is there but is there a way to select an entire album and not each individual file. 

 

Stay healthy, Sam

Sam, Sorry, but it's now above my knowledge, but just thinking along with you!

Perhaps I have been mis-understanding you (thinking of Editing- while offline)

Perhaps you will get more reasonable answers at the Feedback site-

In my iPhone I can select all photos in an Album and [Share] as 'Original' (but that is while mobile data is connected)
