Hi All
I use Lightroom 2.3 and have recently tried to use the ‘Edit in’ function to ‘Merge to HDR in Photoshop’ with just 3 Raw files.
PS opens fine and the three images appear as separate layers, the ‘Merge to HDR’ window then opens allowing me to set the White Point preview etc. but on trying to complete the operation I get the following error message..
"The operation could not be completed.
Not enough storage is available to complete this operation"
I am using;
-Win Vista 32bit with 3gb of Ram.
-Intel 2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.4GHz
-NVIDIA GeForce9600GS (7.15.11.7490 Driver)
Under ‘Preferences’/’Performance’ I have ‘Memory Usage’ set to 1298MB(79%) and the Scratch disk is set to the internal HD with 502.86GB reading as free. (I also have 2 external USB2.0 HDs with 880 & 909GB free respectively.I have tried every permutation of having these combined or individually as the Scratch disk but to no avail.)
The really annoying/bizarre aspect of this is that if I open Windows Task Manager and watch the Photoshop Memory usage it peaks and stays at 1,247,704K for about 1/1.5minutes during which I continue to get the above error message if I try to complete the Merge process.
However, if I wait and monitor this memory usage it starts to drop after said period to 1,003,612K after which the Merge process completes no problem??? (Memory usage by PS then drops to 770,384K)
Whilst I appreciate that my PC is no Ferrari..having to wait over a minute seems more than a little odd. Have I got something set wrong?
All advice gratefully received……
Many thanks!
