When Matt Kloskowski, NAPP, recently began the crusade to get Lightroom and Photomatix to really communicate, we had v 3.1.2 Photomatix and a plugin which would take files into Photomatix, but not return them to LR. This left it up to us to move such files back into our working catalog.
Most of us are used to LR2 sending a file out to Photoshop then seamlessly getting the result back. The guys and gals at HDRsoft promised to remedy the ‘dangling file’ situation post haste.
With advent of 3.1.3 beta4, Photomatix now has a new plugin to integrate with Lightroom It only runs on the new beta vice 3.1.2. When you select 3 or more images to process for HDR, Photomatix brings up a dialog box. At the bottom, this box asks you if you want to return the result and stack it with your original images. You may choose either 8 bit jpg or tif formats. You may also choose a 16 bit tif (my normal choice since I shoot raw).
So you will want to download the new beta to speed your HDR processing.
