Theta stitcher problem - help needed13238

Jacksonville, Florida

So...
I did a 360 tour today.
used DFP 7 Photos DNG, and merged them in LR.
resulting in a same filename-HDR DNG
I try to export in TIF with exiting to Theta stictcher.
Result TIF file is being created Theta Sticher says "No compatible DNG files"

I did not have this problem before.

I watched a you tube video on it, but it didn't seem to solve the problem.

Any thoughts?

Would like to stay in LR for the workflow if possible.

Thanks!

While I have played with other photographers DFP 7 Photos DNG in Lightroom ~ I still for real estate anyways prefer the "run and gun" quality vs time of just the auto HDR jpg out of the Z1

I wanna say that the editing of each pano took in the neighborhood of 20-30 minutes start to finish with the stitching and merging of the 9 step DNG's which is too much time in my opinion when the Auto HDR jpg's 9 times out of 10 will provide a "good enough" image and a pretty decent image with a little once over in Lightroom or Photoshop

So, what do you use? DFP, with the automatic merging to HDR?
or just the plain Z1 HDR option?

@DanSmigrod Yes they are helpful, but not the problem that I am expericing.
I believe he is talking about using the DFE HDR option, where images are fused to one in camera.
I did bracket option where i have 7 HDR's

Theta stitcher seems very finicky

I blended in LR. Manually megred a window with PS. made sure teh right dimensions are used and saved as tiff.
Tried to stitch as plugin export and as in "edit in" menue in LR.

Get the DNG not compatible error

Very frustrating.
