Well, I kinda agree with the points put here, as RAW is RAW, but now i'm using lightroom, and pictures I print myself are never converted anymore to JPG.

But showing the RAW picture itself is no use anyway, as it needs work. Lightroom for instance is non destructive and keeps the raw, but the image you want the view is the one with metadata processed. (same with the canon software)

So I'm double on this, yes, nice to have, but alot of processing time to view the pictures you really want on the screen.

But it would be nice to be able to scroll through your raws on tv, and just have a notepad in the sofa and write down the keepers (wich you'll work on later).

Oh well, maybe it's easier to just launch lightroom full screen, and assign a shortcut key to your remote so you can set the star rating on the pictures ? Useless of course if you're just showing pictures to family and were to lazy to develop that last few pictures you took of them 2 years ago, lol.

Oh, btw, for lightroom users.

Lightroom itself builds a jpg preview list of all those pictures.

So maybe we just need another way of browsing through pictures ?

A media portal application where you can select the folders you want included,

wich then gets indexed and you get a view where they are presented on date.

Oh well, we're all way to lazy, just extract the raw jpg used in the camera to do the preview, there small programs out there that can do this in batch....
