Hi.

I've just tested the AVIF HDR output on ACR 15.1 on Apple Silicon Macbook Pro.

It seems broken when GPU acceleration is enabled. The exported images are distorted.

When GPU acceleration is disabled in ACR, the HDR content cannot be displayed, but when exported it's correct - it is correctly display by supported browser (Chrome 108+)

 

Br, Pawel

We've confirmed the issue is related to Output Sharpening when GPU is enabled in HDR mode.  We're working on a fix.

In the meantime, the workarounds are (a) disable "Use GPU for image processing" in Preferences/performance, as you already identified, or (b) disable Output Sharpening.

Thanks for your help & patience.

Looks like Windows has the same issue. It seems if you set GPU acceleration to custom and then just uncheck using the GPU for exports, you get proper exporting but the ACR viewport still works (since GPU is still enabled there)

Yep, confirmed also on MacOS. When "Custom" acceleration is selected only for viewing not exporting the AVIF HDR files are expored corrextly.

Hi Pawel, can you please explain what you mean by "the exported images are distorted" ?  Can you please post a screenshot or an example of the result?  Thanks.

 

Also, could you share what settings you used in the Save dialog?

This is the photo of correct image:

And this is the distorted one (much more contrast and severe banding on higlight area)

IMG_1776.jpeg

Nothing changed between export - just disabled GPU for import/expoert.

Hi, 

Under following link:

https://pawel.online/public/for_adobe_bug/

I've place the original file (CR3) and its settings (XMP). There are also two folders with files and logs with and without GPU enabled.

Just to clarify. In both cases the GPU is enabled for image processing. 

Option With_GPU -> the GPU is enabled also for file import/export

Option Without_GPU -> the CPU is disabled for file import/export. This option creates correct output AVIF file.

Will there be also MAC installer for Apple Silicon?

The one linked seems to be Intel only as it requires Rosetta to install.

Yes, we will eventually also release the installer natively via the normal Creative Cloud app.

In the meantime, please try the one I linked to earlier.  The installer needs Rosetta, but the ACR 15.1.1 plug-in is Universal and therefore contains native Apple silicon code.

Cool. I've managed to extract Camera RAW plugin from the pkg without using Rosetta (hate to have it installed).

I can confirm, that export with GPU enabled works well now.
