Hello Svetlana,
Thank you so much for the feedback and confirmation. I appreciate it.
You are welcome.
Sorry you didnāt get a timely response from DxO. I have never had a bad experience with DxO support. Responses to my questions have always been courteous and timely. Things can and do fall through the cracks occasionally, and I certainly hope that what you have seen is the exception rather than the rule.
I received feedback from support yesterday, presumably after internal prompting from Svetlana about this thread.
They have confirmed: The developers found that when the Nik apps transform a file ( from instance from NEF to TIFF with .XMP data), the XMP data is not currently recognized by the non-EFEX set of Nik plugins. Therefore, Dfine, Viveza, and Sharpener Pro will have problems reading .XMP data.
This issue will be fixed in a future update, but they cannot give a specific time frame for the solution.
Iāve always found DXO support to be mediocre at best. Most always short, unhelpful answers. You just get the feeling thereās little passion for their product and their users.
I always got a good response and help when I needed something.
Paid and downloaded Pure Raw 4, does NOT work correctly, had ongoing support issuse with them, they keep saying I have not sent them requested items when I have, also say I have not sent them the correct file type when i have, now i have asked for a refund they have gone quite.
Was it working correctly during the 14-day free trial? Can you give us a little more information about the problem? Perhaps someone here can help you.
Mark
