Problem with DNG files of DJI Mini 3

Hi guys

 

I've been having trouble with opening DNG files of DJI mini 3 in Lightroom Classic for a while. The Software recognizes only some of them. I'm not experiencing this issue in Photoshop or cloud-based Lightroom, Even though I tested the different SD cards. The firmware of the drone is up to date. I tried uninstalling and then reinstalling the Lightroom Classic, but the problem didn't resolve.

Your screenshot is too poor to really see it well, but it looks like Lightroom Classic thinks these images have already been imported. There is an issue with importing photos and videos at the same time, under investigation right now. That may also be your problem, so try importing photos and videos separately.

Hi

I did the way you described, but it didn't help that. Looks like Lightroom Classic has a bug. I don't have any problem with mavic 3 pro DNG files, the software recognizes all of them.
- It says "this photo is already in the catalog" which is not true.

"It says "this photo is already in the catalog" which is not true."

 

Triple-check that by following these precise steps:

 

1.  In the Library Catalog panel (upper-left), select All Photographs.

 

2. Turn off Library filters by ensuring the menu item File > Library Filters > Enable Filters is unchecked.

 

3. Do the menu command Photo > Stacking > Expand All Stacks.

 

4. Do the menu command Library > Find, and enter this search criterion:

 

Enter one of the file name of one of the photos that the Import window has greyed out.
