Why when i press 'Embedded Preview' burron on the image in Library mode, do my images get visibally corruped? If i remove that image from Lightroom and resync, its ok again.

If I understand your descriptions, I might suggest that your photo files are corrupted.

The good image you see, the 'embedded' camera preview may look OK when you import, or even when you re-import, but as soon as you click the 'embedded' icon you are forcing Lr-Classic to build a Preview from the raw data. It is the raw data that is corrupt.

ie. a 'good' embedded view, 'bad' raw data.

You need to investigate where the corruption is occuring- Camera? Memory Card? USB cable?.

Final report. (if anyone is still folowing this). I swapped the USB cable on the CF reader that might have been causing th issues, re imported into lightroom, and they all seems fine. 
So potentially was a dodgy USB cable all along (as you said it might be)

Still interested to hear back on the Embedded Preview button i have that no one else seems to have, maybe its a mac thing.

"maybe its a mac thing". Quite possibly. I never see this 'button' in Windows-10, and I cannot find (at this moment) a reference to it in any searches of 'Help' pages! So I presume your 'blue button' and the 'embedded' Badge both disappear after developing and the Grid previews update.

The 'Embedded Preview' was a feature introduced in Classic v7.0-

So a dodgy USB cable all along. Feels good when you solve a problem, hey!! 

 

 

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 14.5.1, Photoshop 26.10, ACR 17.5, Lightroom 8.5, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 15.1.1 .
