Pixel Shift and Lightroom CC

Since I subscribed to Lightroom CC and since it supports pentax pixel shift raw files (since camera raw 9.1) I've dabbled with a few landscape shots but I would like to know if there is a easy way to identify these files in LR's library module.

In windows folder view its quite easy to pick them out due to their file size but in the LR library module> panel > mega pixel they show up a 24.1mp, as does ll K3/K3ii files. I've had a scan of the meta data to see if there is an attribute but I can't spot anything.

Do any of you techno wizards have any thoughts?
Cheers
Brian.

I admit I was under the impression that you needed to use PDCU 5, the version that comes with the K3II, in order to ' develop' the pixel shift files into single images ? I was not aware that any third party software could process them. ? But only raising the question to get clarification from those who know .

That's great - it looks like the independents are beginning to support pixel shift. No use to me though: I use Photoshop CS4 which will only support ACR up to v5.7!
