Combine RAW + JPG preview
« on: November 22, 2023, 07:08:28 AM »
Hello,

I never had any issues with this but suddenly, as i always shoot RAW+JPG, both files show up the contact sheet. In the view menu i have ''Combined Images'' and ''Unknown files as proxies'' selected. In settings, in the contact sheet menu, i have ''combine images into single thumbnail'' enabled. 

What would be a solution to this? Is there a way to hide the JPG files any other way?

Thanks!

Do the RAW and JPEG share the same base filename (the filename without the extension)?

Yes they are exactly the same.

Can you post a screenshot where both the Photo Mechanic window and your operating system's file browser are visible and show the same files?

As i was pretty sure about this, this turned out to be the cause of the problem. With a update of my camera (Canon R3) it switched the file numbering to a different setting, which caused different filenames. So problem solved, enjoying the easy and fast workflow with PM again! ;-)

Thanks for the support.
