Thanks Rico. Love short sharp concise videos like this.

[@RicoResolves]

That's awesome to hear KimSuphan!

Hi Rico, I find editing photos that are taken during sunset very hard to edit in darktable.
Everytime I take such a photo, I see that colors in the JPEG are very natural looking, and are very pleasant to look at. However, opening these photos in darktable makes them seem very flat, unnatural and the overall parts of the sky look more like painting than a nice picture.
Could I possibly share one such a photo with you, so you could tell me some tips for working with that problem?

[@RicoResolves]

Yes, please email it to me at [e-mail]

[@alessandromatania9396]

I have an issue while exporting black and white photos. They look less contrast than the ones I see in Darktable. How can I fix that?

[@RicoResolves]

I have no idea?

[@alessandromatania9396]

@@RicoResolves I solved by removing the OpenCL support. I found this solution in an old GitHub post. I don’t know why but this works

[@wegder]

Does this mean I can ignore lighttable entirely? I don't need or want lighttable.

[@RicoResolves]

Well not really. You need it to import your photo/library that you want to work on. Edits happen in darkroom, the "administration" is done in lighttable. With the exception of export which is available in darkroom as well.

How can you get the size of the file?

[@RicoResolves]

You can fill in the pixels the image needs to be in the export setting

[@HaroldKuilman]

Jaa je moet natuurlijk wel weten waar de export naar TOEKAN 😂 (sorry moest hem inkoppen)

[@RicoResolves]

Hahahaha!

[@user-eh8wn7yu4n]

How can you get the size of the file?

[@RicoResolves]

You can give the pixel x pixel as output
