MlRawViewer 1.3.3 (CDNG/MLV/RAW Viewer & Encoder, Linux/Mac/Win)

[arrinkiiii]

 The 1 is already solve...  Wend you open a old premiere file on the new premiere it will ask for record with new name, after install Quick Time i still open this new version and he didn't went to get the link of the MOV file. So i just open the old premiere file (in the new premiere) and he  ask me again for new name and this time he get connected to the link.  So, all good with MOV from MlRawViewer =D  What a great tool we got here. Thanks.

OK, will upload the DNG's and put the link here.

[arrinkiiii]

I think i already know what is going on, at least until one point. Let me try to explain this in english, that going to be hard to me...

I open the new DNG in Photoshop (acr) and i can see the blu-ish color under the balcony but in after effects i don't see that, only the normal color (white with a little blue)  That's why i said that the new version of MlRawViewer was giving me this blu-ish color. 

So, i went to folder of the old dng and open in MlRawViewer and the same blus-ish color appear! I can see that the problem is not from old or new version of MlRawViewer. I look and look for see why my sequence of DNG's are alright in After Effects and in MlRawViewer not, with a old version or newest  of the app.  Went to AE and open the ACR for that DNG sequence and i see that in the first panel of ACR  everything is in 0 (zero)... after i click in the Camera Calibration tab and change from Embedded to Natural or  Faithful Camera Profile. With this i solve the problem of the blue-ish color.

If i use the DNG's sequence in After Effects it's ok because i can change the camera profile but in MlRawViewer I can't and for  you export in MOV (that what i want to do) the MOV file come out with this blue-ish. Is any solution for this??

This MLV footage was recorded with old version of MLV Raw  (almost one year ago)

Here is the link for one DNG,

Thanks @Baldand -- I did follow your instruction and deleted everything including the .mlrawviewer and unfortunately since I already deleted it so I wasn't able to retrieve the crash report per your request. My fault on that.

However, I was able to record my own macbook's screen to show you what this looks like...

I actually do miss using your wonderful software... extremely frustrating!

Hi Baldand,

Sadly MlRawViewer Stop playing mlv files, It look like it crashes.

mac OSX mavericks.

Here is what i know,
1. when i am trying to play an mlv file nothing is happen (command option escape - shows the app for a blink and then it disappear)
2. It happens in 1.3.2 and also in 1.2.3
3. the app plays cdng and dng with no problem.

Your app is the number one viewer for me, i am using it from day 1.
Please help.

Please share the log file. Then try deleting the .mlrawviewer directory.

download link for the log file.

deleting the .mlrawviewer folder didnt help. should i remove the app and reinstall it also?

[DavidSh]

o.k got it, it is the .mld from the mlvfs.

Your app is still the Best mlv viewer and render around!

Thank you Baldand.

Thank you Baldand.

You beat me to it. Yes - out of interest, do you know what tool is creating those files?

[DavidSh]

Just told you... MLVFS,

After deleting the empty folders ".mld" wich created by mlvfs your app came back to life.

Sorry, missed that.

That's a bit unfortunate. I'll try to make the file parsing more robust in a future version, but for now I guess people will have to clean up those .mld folders if they want to use MlRawViewer to view the same files.

[DeafEyeJedi]

Excellent find @Davidsh... I went ahead and deleted the empty .MLD folders that were created from MLFVS. I literally felt like a kid again after finding my favorite candy bar (MlRawViewer) hidden in a drawer somewhere. THANKS again @Baldand and I'll continue to use your remarkable app in MlRawViewer as always!

Here's the CR from the latest crashing when exporting as DNG's...

Thanks. Looks like you managed to find a bug in the new lossless jpeg encoder.

Is it possible for you to share the (or an?) MLV that triggers this?

@Baldand -- Sure here they are...

(it has both the original MLV & REC.TMP files)

Hope to continue to help along... THANKS AGAIN and looking forward to future updates regarding MlRawViewer!

[Jbowdach]

just in case it got lost in the thread, i put together  quick walk through for beginners on how to quicker get started. Hope it helps! Many thanks for your continued work on this project!

As mentioned before I'm getting lock ups when exporting. I recently deleted everything and started again but it's still happening.

Here is the latest log file log file

@DeafEyeJedi Thanks, but unfortunately I couldn't reproduce the crash with that file. Does it crash every time the same way when you export it?

@dfgh Thanks also, but no solid clues in the log file.
Have you tried version 1.3.2 yet?
Are you using stripe correction or not? If so, try with it turned off as that is a simpler pipeline.

[DeafEyeJedi]

@Baldand -- okay I've taken the troubleshoot somewhat to another level and was able to narrow down the possibilities.

#1 - I was able to export as DNG's with original MLV folder on latest MlRawViewer (1.3.2) -- so that makes sense why you weren't able to duplicate the issue I was referring to earlier. (But since it was shot in DUAL-ISO so I'll need to convert it obviously)

#2 - I was NOT able to export converted DNG's since it crashes every time (after its been converted with MLVFS -- could this be related to the .MLD issues from earlier?)*** Perhaps I'll try to convert the DUAL-ISO with 20-bit cr2hdr in LR and see if the crashes still occur (just to be sure its not just related to MLVFS)

***IN CASE YOU WERE WONDERING... I've uploaded the converted DNG's (.MLD) onto my dropbox for your own experiments.

More troubleshooting to come as I'll be leaving for work and will try to find downtime to hunt this bug down!

Thanks again!

Thanks. Now I was able to reproduce the crash using your 16bit DNGs. The ljpeg code is not currently capable of handling these 16bit files which contain full range data interpolated from dual-iso material.

This is quite an "edge case" for me since the data is already a DNG so there's quite limited value re-exporting that to new DNGs. They can be viewed, and exported to MOV. Maybe later the DNG export case will work too, but I don't consider it a high priority fix. Sorry!

[DeafEyeJedi]

Sounds good, No problem & Thanks! However, would you happen to have a preferred way to use dual ISO MLV if you wanted to convert them and yet still  be able to use your software as well as others when necessary?

Currently converting w 20-bit cr2hdr within LR -- stand by! (I'm still curious whether if it would still work or not)

Sorry, I can't give any guidance regarding dual-ISO as I only have a 7D, which sadly doesn't support dual-ISO video. If anyone has found some step in the dual-ISO workflow which MlRawViewer can help with as-is, that's great, but right now there is no explicit support for dual-ISO in the tool.

[TequilaKez]

Firstly, Wow! I've had a 70d since they came out but patiently waiting for ML. just picked up a used 550d and ML'd it straight away to have a mess with mlv.
Not seeing this thread at first, I was fumbling with old tedious workflows and was thinking, what we need is a simple utility to squash 14bits into Prores 4444 with a log curve. To my surprise, you'd already done it! And a stellar job too.

Now the only other idea that popped into my head is, what's the possibility of porting some of this code to a quick look plugin?
Quick and nasty lo-res preview would suffice, just something to make navigating heaps of arbitrarily named MLVs a bit more visual.
I can help with the quicklook framework side though I'm not so good with plain C.

Makes sense. Just so you know that I have full access to a 7D at work and have used ML on it (I can take home for testing when necessary) as well. If there's anything else that I can do to help speed up your software or even assist @a1ex if possible to take this Magic even further?

Just let me know...

@DeafEyeJedi:
could you provide a short DualISO-Clip for the samplefiles?
