How to..Lightburn photo processing 

I was really looking for a good tutorial... your video is all over the place.

wow. went way into the weeds at 9 min. and stayed there for a good 7 min. omg blah blah blah.. and then finally stuck with Jarvis!!! Ok. I gave up at 19 min. Thanks anyway guys.

To much jumping around , couldn’t get the concept of getting the picture engraved, I need a do this then that finished.

👌

Thank you so much for the video. I've watched several times. I really appreciate all the detailed explanations.

Thanks for this video, Please can you do a video explaining what these settings do & mean and also on the Shape properties. Not a discussion as there too much-jumping around etc . Once again thanks for your time and awesome work. Lightburn is awesome and can not wait for the new release , that looks good

I like the new guy lol. He asked questions I had in my head

Nice job. Lightburn is such an awesome piece of software. It can be confusing at times (burning as a whole, lol) it's best to play with the settings and log your jobs so you can create a materials database. It'll be time-consuming at first, but in the end, you will have a goto chart so you can get instant results. My experience with photos is, no matter how perfect one photo is, the same settings might not work for the next photo - so it really is about having a starting point and tweaking..

Great video. I save it as a resource to watch again in the future. Chris does a great job explaining Lightburn, but the other guy (not Grant) keeps interrupting him. I found that to be distracting from the content of the video.

Thank you so very much for this informative video. I'm more confused now than I was.

Thank you for the video, in the future can you actually explain what type of look that you are trying to achieve by manipulating these sliders and the values? I think for the most part most people get really confused about what each of those things do because there's just a lot of sliders going back and forth but no one really explains the actual look that you're trying to achieve prior to sending that information to the laser. I have been trying to produce a laser engraved photo I've had some success but it's not consistent for the most part I experience the "curtain" effect that you mentioned where it just seems like it was just burning the wood I think maybe I need to step my speed up I was normally doing 100 to 130 MMS, according to you I should speed the machine up ..... Again thank you for the video!!

What video are you referring to on "Fine Tuning" an image for lightburn? I have photoshop and would like to learn how to do that so that I can just import or open with lightburn.

A discussion/explanation of what each of the shape properties do and what affect adjustments to these properties will have on photos would be very helpful!

Why when I zoom in on a picture I see lines not dots? no matter what mode I set it on.

for me this was out of control ... to much off current subject .....WAY to much jumping around

Hi guys, nice video. I owned an Epilog 30w way back in the early 2000's and the tube went bad a few years later and they wanted $3500, so I gave it up until now, Bought a 60w thunderlaser. Anyway, used to do loads of black marble photo engravings and used the spectacle software at that time, which was Photograv. So here I am in this truly integrated environment and enjoying every bit of the learning process but @ 71 years young I need a nap after 2 hours learning new things LOL. Anyway had a couple of questions. 1. Was the photo you imported originally color? If not, what was your process for B&w conversion? I want to continue with the black marble and black granite depending on the outcome so just trying to get to the point I can actually do my first try. Thanks guys I have a 60w if you are interested in providing me your guesses with the Jarvis method as to speed and power. Thanks again for your time ..... Bob

I am looking at an Epilog Fusion pro 80W are the preset in the machine a good starting point?

Where are the links that were mentioned toward the end off the session please?

You did not show the end result nor the media for these settings. not a bit of help here. just a couple of guys having a conversation.

What settings do you change to get a darker engraving? I’ve seen so many pictures people have engraved that was so light you can barely see it.

Hi, Thanks for the video, What I would like to ask is, do you really use speed of 10 (mm/sec or in/sec)? And your MAX power is 14%? Both of them for a photo? If I will use it on wood, it will burn all of it in black, no? I will appreciate your answer. Thanks again.

what laser cutter do you have? mine is a 60w laser cutter, can i use your cutting parameters?

Have they added a cooling setting for diode lasers yet

U did not show how you imported the image.

Lots of good info but way too hard to glean it from all the extemporaneous comments. More confusing than educational. Sorry.

Thank you for the Videos, im learning and getting familiar with what this program is capable of doing. i have one question ? in what instance would one use Negative Image Option. Thanks

Hi, I have a Ortur LM2 PRO 0 watts laser, but as adviced by the Ortur support I cannot cut 6mm plywood and acerlric even with 6 passes,Anyone can advice me on this, or suggest a better CNC cutter which can even cut plywood upto 10mm> Thanks in advance Nicholas.

What machine and lens ?

Can you use this program on an epilog laser?

Where can I get the file?

Good idea, but way too much talking without getting to the point. I'm guessing many people tuned out because of that.

Missed the mark, should rename the title. Not very instructional

didnt see this being a crash course

been a lot better if you had focused the camera

These guys just talk too much and make it very confusing

Too much info for a beginner!

hi how to contact u?
