Round trip to PS, new saved image not showing up in C1
I've been doing this workflow on the Mac version of C1 and it works pretty well, but it doesn't seem to be working (or if it does work, it takes a loooong time), I'm just curious if I need to adjust a setting somewhere, or if I should file a bug report.
1. Have a RAW file in C1
2. 'Edit With' PS CC 2015 (via JPG export)
3. Make edits in PS, save as TIFF (to preserve layers (ZIP compression on image and layers), and show up in C1, as .psd don't appear as images in C1).
4. New .TIF file shows up in C1
Step #4 is what is not happening on the Windows version (8.3.2 / Windows 7 x64) The new .TIF file is in the same directory as the original file, it was saved from PS directly from the file that was opened (I didn't create a new image in PS and paste anything).
On OSX, the new file is found within a few seconds and my catalog is updated. On Windows, this isn't happening, even after restarting C1. I looked for a way to manually refresh the folder, and didn't see any. The only difference between my windows and OSX setup is the drive is a internal SSD on OSX, and on my windows box it's an external USB3 mechanical HD (5TB). The .TIF file sizes are from 200-400mb, but even after 5-10 minutes the new .tif files are not appearing, so I don't think it's a speed issue.
Any thoughts or has anyone seen anything like this before?
Edit - After some searching, I've verified the global 'hide processed TIFF files' filter is off, and that no alpha layers are present (in fact I deleted all layers except the base layer, and then re-saved the file as .tif). Still no update to the cataloge.
Edit 2 - Found a work-around.. if I manually right click the folder name, I can do 'synchronize folder', and manually force it to import the new file. Strange how these files are found and updated / synchronized automatically on OSX but not Windows.

Thoughts?
Sorry to see you having to respond to yourself... so, a response to help you:-)
Like this before?
Yes (ish). Though I don't have PS.
Not sure of the exact precipitating circumstance(s) and, to be fair, I only picked up my C1 license very recently. And I'm not using catalogues yet just some very early test sessions.
My trusty renderer Silkypix shows new output files after only a blink or two eg the files appear elsewhere on the OS. Ditto when Silkypix appropriately deletes. I still have to determine more succinctly but C1 output does NOT always 'show up' (until I press Ctrl-R refresh in annoyance or impatience). Haven't pinned it down yet as I have been concentrating on trying to workaround the how of C1 messing up the actual sRGB output content as opposed to the why of the file not always automagically appearing in the designated target area.
Similarly, after deleting a bunch of output files from within C1, the OS's File Explorer STILL shows these same files ...until the (now usual) annoyed/impatient 'refresh'. The files should've been cleared off the OS's display but they remain - despite being completely unavailable when so attempted.
Shouldn't happen but, yes, it does. Hence the above 'ish' flavoured answer;~) So, possibly allied to your actual OP.0 -
Ok,
If you are doing a "Edit With..." and exporting as JPEG, you should see this show up, in CO browser.
But if you then save the image as a TIFF in PS, even to the same directory CO will not pick this up, it only knows about the JPEG you saved it as.
WHY would you export as JPEG, then do editing in PS, then save out as TIFF? (You are editing a lossy file in PS, and saving it out as a non-lossy file, you already killed the reason for the TIFF.)
Try this, do an "Edit with..." and export as TIFF, you should see the file show up in the browser, now if you do changes to the file with PS, and flatten the image then save, any changes should also show up. (Also make sure you do not have any additional layers.)
Now, this assumes you are using Catalogs, not Sessions.0 -
Do not save the processed image as a different file in PS. Capture One does not monitor the folder, it only monitors the image file and any changes to do for updating the preview. 0
