Title: how to get the CR2HDR to work on a mac. OSX?
Post by: 5dm3 on September 29, 2013, 11:46:55 PM
Hi guys. I have search high and low now but i cant find a way to get the cr2hdr program to work so i can get the dual ISO still photos ready for editing.

I consider myself pretty good with computers, but I'am totally lost here.

It looks like i have to get this in with a spoon, I'm sorry for this, but is there anybody on here that can help me get it to work, or maybe have a veirson and I can just download and it will work.

I really need your expert help here!

Some more information might be helpful.  Does it throw an error etc etc.

Have a look through a few posts here and see if that helps.

I have added an update for Mac processing on the OPENING POST of Dual ISO.

How did you end up getting this to work? Please help! This is the most frustrating install I've ever had to deal with.

I have run the exiftool & dcraw downloader, installed the LR Plugin and I am still getting the error message below:

Input file : _MG_4825.CR2
sh: exiftool: command not found sh: dcraw: command not found sh: dcraw: command not found Error: dcraw output is not a valid PGM file Logfile    : _MG_4825.txt


I even tried moving the dcraw and exiftool script files into the cr2hdr app bin within package contents.

Thank you Walter,

This seems to just be the LR plugin. My issue is with the cr2hdr app, which cannot find exiftool and dcraw.

I'm using the instructions posted here http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/?topic=7139.0 from 2013, and in the readme file it says it works with Lion & Mountain Lion. Now that we are on El Capitan I'm wondering if there is an updated version of the app, or some kind of patch to allow it to find dcraw and exiftool.

Please help I think this feature is amazing and I really would like it to work on my 6D
