Is it possible to use automatic lens correction profiles in Camera RAW using Extendscript?

I have developed Javascripts using Extendscript toolkit to help me process batches of files for creating time lapse videos, and

I would like to take advantage of the automatic lens correction profiles available in Adobe Camera RAW (I am using Adobe Photoshop CS6 64-bit), but in the CameraRAWOpenOptions, there is no property describing the automatic lens correction profiles.  It seems there has got to be a way to automate the selection of the "Enable Lens Profile Corrections" box when opening camera RAW images.  I am using Canon lenses, and the Adobe lens correction profiles work great, so I'd like to use them.

 

I am aware of the other way of doing this in Photoshop using File-->Automate-->Lens Correction, but this seems to work more slowly than using the lens corrections in Camera RAW.

 

Thanks.

    You don't need to bother...just set your Camera Raw "Defaults" to include Enable Lens Profile Corrections and check the Auto CA correction. Then go to the ACR flyout menu and select Save New Camera Raw Defaults...Note: if you have your ACR preferences set to have seperate defaults based on camera serial number and ISO, you'll need to save out seperate defaults for each camera and ISO you use.

    Setting ones' own defaults for Camera Raw is IMO an unsung / underdocumented feature, but a great way to get more satisfying performance out of Camera Raw.

    Thanks!  My first attempt froze during the image cropping part of my script, but at least I've got the automatic lens profile corrections working.
