Serif Labs raw engine not decoding raw file on open


Recommended Posts

@Gabe

Raw processing got actually worse. While Serif labs raw engine still doesn’t work at all, Apple engine produces some weird artifacts in most of my raw images. The issue always appears in the lower left corner and stays even after processing the image. These artifacts are very random in size, changing each time even when I open the same image. Occasionally I manage to open an image without this issue. I posted 2 examples of 1 raw file with 2 different results.

I have never experienced this issue before or it could be that I rarely process raw images in Affinity (the default image corrections are lacking when using Apple engine) so maybe I just didn’t have a chance to notice it earlier.2103623272_Screenshot2021-07-06at10_35_22.thumb.png.4db4739841321f76e3ab4bdda8571116.png

When I open this image in Files or a different raw processing software the picture looks completely different and is ready without my adjustments.

 

I have the new iPad Pro M1 12.9. I use Affinity ver. 1.9.2.236. Raw images are NEF from Nikon D800.

Hi @Pawel Chonya,

I split your post in a new thread as your issue is quite different and it's not beta related. 

I wonder if you see this because of your M1 iPad. 99% of the time, issues caused by Apple RAW are Apple's bugs and we can't really do much to fix them. 

Do you happen to have a non-m1 iPad and see if it's fine with the same file?
