Title: Determine embedded profile in Lightroom Classic?
Post by: rasworth on April 12, 2019, 10:27:15 am

I have not found a way in Lightroom CC Classic to display the embedded profile (or the lack thereof) in an imported jpg or tif.  Is there a means to do so, or does one have to fire up Photoshop to see the profile?

No way within LR per se (in terms of when it's embedded) but LR knows what the profile is via metadata so you can build Smart Collections for all sRGB versus all Adobe RGB (1998) etc.

Andrew,

It works, mostly.  I wasn't able to find an entry that would select images with no embedded profile.  I tried the empty field, all images come thru.

Added by edit - I guess one could infer no profile by elimination, i.e. have smart collections for the three major profiles.  It would be a lot easier if Lightroom would include it under view options.  Oh well, if I really need to know I'll just pop out to Photoshop.
