Writing a 'pre-import' plugin


hello,

 

i ask whether possible write plugin runs command line before raw file imported lr.

 

this situation:

 

i'm using micro-four-thirds camera (olympus e-pl2) records raw files in 4:3 aspect ratio (4032x3024 pixels).

it possible choose different aspect ratios camera menu, e.g. 16:9, since helps in composition. camera crops live view desired aspect ratio (and jpeg files), full 4:3 image captured in raw files.the problem when such raw file imported lr appears in aspect ratio taken with, e.g. 16:9, , there's no access full 4:3 image.

my soluton far manually modify raw file before importing lr. specifically, run command:

exiftool -aspectratio="4:3" -aspectframe="0 0 4031 3023" {filename}.orf

after can import file lr , access full image.

 

i thinking writing plugin runs command everytime before importing orf (olympus raw file) file lightroom. automate process.

 

is possible?

 

thank you

lr sdk supports no such pre-import facility, if plugin adding catalog, can whatever want first.

 

e.g. rc importer:
