Color managent question/problem
Locked
 
|
I've been trying to set digikam with the color profiles from my camera and monitor but none of them appears in the color space list, they are in the folder as I placed them there myself but just don't appear on the list. Also a lot of the other profiles on the folder don't appear on the list, not that I care about the other profiles, I'm just curious.
The cameras are a Nikon D70 and D50, and the monitor is a Sony SDM HX75. I'd really apreciate any help on this. -- Regards Fernando |

I dialog is missed in setup to give more feedback of profiles witch are recognized by "lcms" library witch handle ICC files.
If you run digiKam from a console, you will see more debug info about ICC files parsed. Gilles 2007/5/30, FerBatista <[hidden email]>:

Thank you for the reply. It was very fast too.
But unfortunately, I'm not getting there, I tried running digikam from the console but I can still see the same profiles, not more. Is there something else I should do?

The ICC profiles debug messages appears on the console when you enter on digiKam Config dialog and you set a new ICC profile repository path in color management setup. Of course, digiKam must be compiled with debug symbol, else nothing will appears.

Hmm... I guess I should mention that I'm a Linux newbie, also I'm not a very advanced computer user, so you'll have to forgive me but I have to ask for a little more details than that or a tutorial link on this subject.
I really don't know anything about compiling apps, also what's the debug symbol? Thanks again.

Typically, there are 2 ways to install a program : - one devel bin program with debug symbols : big and slow, but dedicaced to give report if it crash and provide informations on console. It generally the case when you compile yourself the program using a source tarball (and when you use the right options to compile it in this mode) - one target bin program without debug symbols : less big, more fast and optimized. It generally provided by package like RPM or DEB.

I tried to compile digikam but it's a bit to much for my knowledge so far, the first two steps (configure and make) went ok, but I got a few errors in the next step. So I quit the job for now. Anyway I noticed that the monitor profile extension was written in capital letter so I corrected that and guess what... it works ok for the monitor profile now.
The only ones I can't make work now are Nikon's profiles under input. Nikon CMYK works under proof, and Nikon adobe appears both on monitor and workspace, but not on input. These are input profiles or at least they should be, or am I wrong? I can send the profiles but where do I send it to? Thanks

FerBatista,
Original Nikon and Canon icc camera profiles has problems... It do not repect/implemente completely the standard defined with ICC stuff... Look in mailing list archive for details... Paco can give you more informations than me, as he have a Nikon camera... I recommend to try the profiles witch come from LightZone. Its work very well with digiKam. Files are here : http://digikam3rdparty.free.fr/ICCPROFILES/CameraProfiles/LZ.2.0/ Gilles Caulier 2007/5/31, FerBatista <[hidden email]>:

I installed those right now, they do indeed work. I'll try them latter when I get home again, thanks for that.
I'd like to ask another question though, is there anyway to convert an image from one space to another? I usually work on my pics on adobe space, and then I convert them to another space depending on the destination of the pic (sRGB for web, etc), can I do this on DigiKam? I've searched this in the forums but I didn't find an answer yet. Regards

The current to do it is to use the Color Management plugin with this settings: General : like you want... Input profile : use embeded WorkSpace profile : the profile that you want use to convert image. Proffing : don't care. Lightness : like you want. There is a file in bugzilla to provide a new option to simplify workspace conversion like photoshop do, using a simple menu entry. Look here : http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138446 ... and vote for it (:=))) Gilles Regards _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

Done, I also voted for a few other bugs while at it.
Anyway, after knowing how it works it doesn't seem that important for me that it works like PS. It's more a question of beeing used to how PS works. But now that I know how DigiKam color management works, I like it very much. Thank you for your time, you've been a great help.
