Silver Efex will also accept Jpegs, but without the nifty return-to-edit feature. I recommend exporting the file from your photo management app as a Tiff so you can return to the project and retain your edits. So that left me with Photoshop for roundtripping. (In fact, make sure Capture One Pro is not open when working with Silver Efex 3 or it will muck up your workflow.) I also could not get it to work with the Creative Cloud version of Lightroom or Photos for macOS. I tried it with Capture One Pro, and it behaved like it knew what to do, but in the end the experiment failed.
You can use Silver Efex as a standalone app or as a plugin for Lightroom Classic and Photoshop. If you work with Tiff files, you have the option to retain all of the edits so you can return to the image and pick up where you left off. This new version released by DxO updated the interface, added presets, now includes DxO's ClearView technology, and made the control points easier to use. Then along came Silver Efex 3, and truly, a good thing got better. And much like a black tux that never goes out of style, so remained my favorite application for digital black and white photography.
That wasn't really a problem however because it's good. All through its journey from Nik, to Google, to DxO, Silver Efex has more or less remained the same.
