Can't create color profile with DNG Profile Editor

I´m trying to create a camera profile to edit my infrared photos. My camara is Sony DSC-F828. I save the SRF file in Lightroom as DNG. Then I open this file in the Adobe DNG Profile Editor. But when I want to change the temperature under "color-matrices", then "the operation could not be completed" appears. I tried to convert the SRF to DNG also with ACR, but the same reaction.

More than 1 year ago, I managed to create a profile, but I´m not sure, if the version of the editor was the same. Does anyone habe an idea?

It's been more than a year since the question was asked. But I answer it anyway. I had the same problem with version 1.0.0.47, but it works with the raw files of the Sony F828 when I use version 1.0.0.46.

Why didn't you just download it from Adobe as suggested above?

I managed to get it to work after making sure I exported the DNG with a Compatibility as "Camera Raw 2.4 and later".  It might work with other Compatibility settings but this is the first one I tried and it worked.

This is how I did it:

- Select your photo

- File

- Export...

- Select & expand Lightroom Presets

- Select Export to DNG

- Towards the bottom of the available settings under File Settings, select Compatibility and change it to an older compatibility like "Camera Raw 2.4 and later"

- Opening that file with DNG Profile Editor should work
