Will RAW images work when only using Eye-Fi together with iPhoto?

I notice from another site that with iPhoto'08 you can drop files into "/Users/YOURACCOUNTNAME/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Auto Import" directly from the Eye-Fi Manager and iPhoto will import automatically too. It deletes the files in that watch folder after adding to the library. Not sure how well it performs though as it's not a documented feature.

About Eye-fi and Lightroom: you can set Lightroom to watch any folder. Have it watch the folder eye-fi imports into and Bam! (well, slower than Bam!) the photo opens in Lightroom.

@ywu -

Thanks for pointing this out! I've discovered that the technique we used to turn this into a background app isn't compatible with Leopard. However, I've tried a new method which is!

Check out the forum post -

where I posted instructions and a new version for download.

And please let us know if you come across anything else. Having feedback from a Leopard user is particuarly useful as I'm working on Tiger and can't always catch everything.

I'm running this on Leopard and I still get the eyeFiToiPhotoBackground script show up on the dock every time, taking up room despite the note above. Am I doing something wrong? Hiding it doesn't work.

@Felix : It seems like lightroom's support of AppleScript (what our little tool is written with) is limited / not really existant. Aperture holds out some more hope though.

All the basic actions of the app (monitoring the folder) would work for anything - would just need to change the few lines in the code that does the importing.

Great app. is there anyway to port that over for aperture or lightroom for the mac?
