New profile making software: Lumariver Profile Designer
« on: May 22, 2017, 12:21:42 pm »

I've just released a new software program for making camera profiles: Lumariver Profile Designer.

Presentation here: http://www.lumariver.com/#LumariverPD
Introduction video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUt3jWs5vTk
User manual here: http://www.lumariver.com/lrpd-manual/
Download here: http://www.lumariver.com/#DownloadLumariverPD

It's the graphical user interface version of my command line tool "DCamProf". It's intended to be easy to use for casual users, but also provide the depth of manual tuning that DCamProf provides, now much easier to operate thanks to the GUI. Still it's unavoidable that the manual stuff is pretty technical, and to ease that aspect I've made a quite beefy user manual with reference docs and tutorials.

It's available for both MacOS and Windows, and comes in three editions. One "Basic" intended for casual users making DNG profiles for Lightroom etc, and one "Pro" for those that also wants to make ICC profiles (including those that works for Capture One) and wants more abilities to customize, and the unlimited "Repro" edition that adds mostly reproduction features like full 3D LUT and multi-target. All features are available in the version provided for download so you can test and toy with it, but you cannot save projects or export profiles unless you purchase a license.

Actually I was myself the first :-), I made a test buy to see that the Paypal config had worked out. But you were the fastest of the others, thank you :-)

First impressions - Straight out of the box it works a treat (at last DCP profiles with accurate rendition of reds), best 120 I've spent for years.
Btw
For operational queries do we create new topics, add on to this thread or email/pm?

The official support channel for Lumariver software is listed somewhere on the web site, but of course the messages end up in my mailbox as this particular software is a one-man-show (not in developing tone reproduction and tuning defaults though, I've had great help from collaboration with photographers). Anyway, either way is okay. Since I'm only one person it's of course great if the manual is checked for answers first :)

(We had an own forum on the Lumariver site but it became mess to maintain, constantly attacked by hacking bots etc so I've put that on hold, so email is the only "official" channel currently, but I hang out at this forum too).

Thanks for confirming - just so this thread remains true to notifications about the software rather than getting bogged down with various arising queries I'll RTFM 1st and pm /new topic separately.

Cheers again for a good bit software (at a very decent price point).

Just looked at this and it's the first bit of software that I've ever needed to disable anti-virus software to install. (Win 7 with Avast).
You might like to look at that.

Yes I'd like to fix that, but it seems to be very difficult :-/

There's a note about that on the web page. You shouldn't need to disable anti-virus (I think), normally it should just be Windows Smartscreen that complains "Windows Protected your PC", and then you press "more info...", see that the software indeed is sign by our company (Xarepo), and press "Run anyway". The problem is that nowadays it's not enough for Windows that the software is signed, it needs "reputation" which basically means many thousands of installs (I've heard), or you sell it through "Windows Store", which is the direction Microsoft is pushing. The app stores take a hefty 30% distribution fee so it's very good money for Microsoft/Google/Apple to make vendors sell that way. We'll probably go there in the end just like everyone else will, but for now it's still feasible to sell on the side.

(I've found out you can get some "free" reputation points by buying a very expensive signing certificate from Symantec, we're using a standard signing cert. I don't think the free points would have been enough though, but would probably lower the amount of world-wide installs required.)

There should be another way to get rid of the complaint; using "WACK", Windows Application Certification Kit, an analysis software that runs for 20-40 minutes and produces a test result which you then submit to Microsoft which then is supposed to make smartscreen stop complaining. I have put the software through that successfully (which is sort of messy as the installer "Inno Setup" I use doesn't seem to be compatible with the latest WACK so I actually have to sit and watch the whole test run and press buttons when the install software is started). But  then actually getting the result file to Microsoft is pretty messy. I counted to 18 agreements that needs signing and their web page was pretty buggy. At that point I gave up, for the moment.

But yes, I'd really like to get rid of that warning if I just knew how... as this software is pretty niche I don't expect the automatic reputation quota to be filled any time soon. Most other small vendors examples I can come up with have already thousands of installs so they have already the reputation points needed, but I guess there is some way to fix it, I just haven't found out how. Searching the web it seems like Microsoft have changed the policy quite a lot over the last few years so the old guides no longer work. As their OS is hammered by viruses and various malware they have good reason to I guess....

I let Avast send a copy back for checking and it was returned later as no threat. Hopefully if everyone does that Avast will get the message it's no problem.

I've now added the program as an exception for av scanning and it now runs without any warnings.

Grattis!

I've tested the multitarget and the ICC-process for C1 so far. The manipulating of the tone curve is great. It's much easier than writing json files. :)
The multitarget function worked great when I started with the IT8.7 and added the CCSG to it. The other way around the program closed when I (or the program) render the result. When I'm on the 2nd target and save the ICC-profile the picture of the first target is showed after that. But with the grid and selection of the 2nd. All other functions seems to work nicely. On a few I'm still not sure what it does exactly (Headroom, LUT optimization with lightness, TRO Variant). Maybe some examples would be nice in the documentation later.

Is there a way to see the results of the ICC in terms of dE of each patch?

I'm heading to Gothenburg tomorrow. Therefore no much time to test more but I will enjoy your country for holidays instead. ;)

Thanks for the great tool.

If the program closed then it crashed due to some bug. The multi-target aspect is a bit less tested than the other features, I've tested it with a quite simple workflow and obviously based on your report it doesn't cover all cases :-\. I'll dig more into that and iron out the bugs, thanks for reporting.

The Headroom and LUT optimization stuff is described with text in the manual, but I guess it would help with some images.

The headroom especially may be a bit tricky to understand, although the basic principle is simple: if you have a 3D LUT it matters how bright target patches are as you can apply a different correction on a dark patch as on a light patch even if they have the same hue and saturation, and the headroom defines which range the 3D LUT works in. The default is "from image", which is what most will be using most of the time, and it means that the LUT covers the same brigthness range the target in the image covers. This means that if you have a very dark target chart the 3D LUT will only cover dark colors. The idea is however that you expose the target with the same exposure you would use for real images, in a reproduction setup you usually shoot the target in the same space as where you will shoot the actual artwork or objects for reproduction. If you set it to "from reference", the brightness range is specified by the measured reference values, and custom you can set it to any value you want and optionally make the profile scale to match. Those two settings I expect to be used more rarely, but could have an application for like scanners and similar when you want the profile to correct also the exposure.

The "LUT optimization with lightness" preset simply means that the LUT actually considers lightness and corrects it, which is disabled per default for general-purpose, and enabled for reproduction. While in reproduction it is often important that the lightness of colors is correct too, correcting lightness for a general-purpose profile is generally not a good idea. This is not only because lightness correction requires flatfield correction or perfectly even light to make sense, but because you may then make transition into clipping look less nice (which is not a problem for reproduction when you typically don't clip stuff and use no tone curve) and while errors in lightness is easy to spot in an A/B swap comparison, lightness errors are not disturbing when an image is viewed alone, unlike those in chroma/hue.

That said you can do interesting stuff with lightness manipulation in the color adjustments editor, for example by modulating lightness of nearby hues you can introduce "color separation" (for example making yellows lighter than reality and greens darker and then cyan-blues lighter again etc). If doing so it may be wise to fade out the manipulations towards the whitepoint to make the transition to clipping look nice. (Color separation can be enhanced with other methods too, the general principle is to introduce small controlled errors, so the profile still "feels accurate"... the camera color filters also have quite strong effect on that as you really can't make very strong manipulations for nearby colors or you hurt smoothness, so the camera response shines through quite a bit in that aspect.)

To see the colorimetric matching result you need to enable manual optimization mode, and open the Tune LUT dialog. You can use the presets in there so you don't really need to make a manual optimization. I may adjust that in a future version especially for the repro mode as it's not entirely logical that you have to enable "manual" even if you don't intend to do it manually. When designing it originally I was thinking that if you want to know how well it matched, you probably want to make manual adjustments too, and if you do automatic you probably don't really want to look at the colorimetric result but rather just evaluate the profile by eye.

I'll test the multi-target "crash" later on another computer. Sometimes things crashes because of the system not the program. ;)

Thanks for the details about headroom. I do understand the differences now.

The intention to optimize after checking make sense. I'll have a look into it later.

If the program closed then it crashed due to some bug.

Will Lumariver support HUTCHCOLOR precision scanner
 target in the future?

I know it look like a rectangular one.
But it's not. So many patches is not used, it become an
 odd shape to customize.

Here is an reference file.

It's a bit unfortunate that many targets for no reason just aren't simple grids :-\. Grid targets can be matched with the custom target function. There is the free-form target function too, but it's only feasible to use for a few spot colors not a whole target.

Anyway I can add more targets. In fact the next patch release will contain CMP DT-8 http://www.cmp-color.fr/DT8.html as I've got all the data I need from its author.

To add a target in the drop-down list of standard targets I require

- the target should be possible to purchase, or as an exception be a legacy target that many still use
- a reference file with full spectrum, unless it's a multi-media scanner target (which you buy with reference file) then just any reference file will do
- a target photo (raw)
- the target dimensions so I can design the grid properly (a flat image is enough, or the target photo if shot flat)

Although LRPD doesn't need full spectrum in the reference files I have as a quality requirement that any target that is embedded in the program should have full spectrum reference files. I make an exception for scanner targets as they are always delivered with their own reference files anyway, and there are usually many different versions of them (different films etc).

What's missing with the HCT is a flat straight on target photo. If you have one that you can send to me I can add it.

I'll test the multi-target "crash" later on another computer. Sometimes things crashes because of the system not the program. ;)

I've now confirmed and fixed the one where the wrong target image showed up (next patch release), haven't succeed triggering the other yet but I'll probably do after some fooling around :)

I've included scanned file and reference data.
Thank you.

Great. the crash is not repeatable on the 2nd computer. Therefore, don't look deeper there.
But loading a saved project does bring the message: Invalid JSON data in file "xxx.lrpd". Maybe something to do with the multitarget?

Beside: I love to load a custom tif over profile comparison and see how all changes are directly visible on that picture. Great idea especially when I go into a look.

Great, I'll include that target too in the next patch release.

Could you send me the .lrpd file that complains on invalid json data? You could pm me or send an email to not clutter the thread too much.
