Export problems lightroom

Community Beginner ,

Hi!!

I need urgent help! I tried to export a smaller size of a photo and by mistake I explored exporting a photo for Email. Then when I went back to export as I normally did. I couldn´t! I normally export in sRGB and now it changed to sRGB IEC61966-2.1. But now it only appeared this options:

As you can see I can´t select just sRGB and it doesn´t give me the option like it used to, like this:

And now if I export they will be in a very low quality. I cant change it and dont really know what can I do. What I did is Edit In Photoshop and from there I exported in high quality. Now I need to export a wedding and cant really figure out how can i go back to my normal export settings. Hope someone can help me!

 

Thank you!

They are the same. 'sRGB IEC61966-2.1' is the official name of what is often simply called 'sRGB'.

But why did the quality changed drastically?

It shouldn't, the quality of the exported image has nothing to do with the name of the color space, but you have to give more information. What quality do you mean? Is there a difference in image size? Sharpness? Color? How was Photoshop involved and was it involved in both exports? Your two screenshots do not give any clue why there would be a difference between the two exports, except (and that is what I suspect) if you did not export the same image in those screenshots.

I think (though not certain, since the dialog elements do look a little different on MacOS and Windows) you may have two different export setups selected - some have a different looking box next to them than others do. 

 

When you click on the name of one of those export setups, this does not change the box next to it - it just updates the main export settings to match whatever is recorded into that setup. For example: reloading my previously saved setup for resizing to 800px.

BUT when you click on the box next to (say) three export setups, this tells LrC to carry out all three types of export in turn - for each image selected.

Depending on how each is configured, output may be arriving into different destinations or the same destination -

also (potentially, depending on settings) if into the same destination and under the same file naming, may even be overwriting each other as they happen.
