Issue: Converting to DNG removes star rating

 

Lightroom Classic 11.4

MacOS 12.4

 

Steps to reproduce:

Rate files with 1 star

Convert Sony A1 raw files to DNG with the following settings:

Only Convert Raw files

Delete originals after successful conversion

File extension DNG

JPEG preview medium

Embed Fast Load Data

Use Lossy Compression

 

Expected result: new DNG files should maintain the star rating as they have done in previous versions of LR

Acutal result: as soon as the Raw file is converted to a DNG, the star rating disappears

Greetings, 

 

An update, version 11.4.1, was released on June 28th, for Lightroom Classic. It contains a fix for this issue as well as a couple of bugs causing intermittent crashes for some customers. 

If you do not see the update in your Creative Cloud Application, you can refresh it by hitting [Ctrl/Cmd]+[Alt/Opt]+[ R ].

 

Thank you for your patience.

Olá, percebi que de um tempo pra cá ao converter os arquivos Raw para Dng no LR está limpando as marcações das fotos que fazia durante a edição.
Todas as fotos que marco para publicações, ou favoritas(5 estrelas, cores) ao converter pra DNG perdem essa marcação.
Algumé mais sabe o motivo disso?

Your edits are in the catalog file. If you want them to be stored in the DNG files, you have to tell Lightroom Classic to write the metadata to the files. (Select the desired photos, then Ctrl-S on Windows and whatever the equivalent is on Mac)
