  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Epic / Scarlet Firmware 3.3.4

Bérenger, this 'operational note specific to build X" mentioning image zoom only avail while preview also always kept me hoping for a future upgrade with 1:1 zoom while recording (I guess french are optimists)

Sadly, according to Nate it won't be happening...

unless they could make a module for that :-) Have extra hardware on the +1 module to allow 1:1 zoom for the cam assistant ! ;-)

The audio is still comes from the left side only.. even after I adjust it to center in cam mixer .

No, alas... still stuttering one frame each second (@24fps on 24fps project).

redmote upgrade link broken?

redmote upgrade link broken?

Clicked on the link to download the redmote 4.06 upgrade and the link is dead. I can't seem to find in on the site either. Did it get pulled or am I looking in the wrong place?

It got pulled. A bug was introduced in REDmote 4.0.x that may cause a problem upgrading the REDmote. A new REDmote version correcting this problem will be released soon along with instructions on how to work-around the bug.

Question for ya Jarred...wondering why there hasn't been an "Image flip" feature in any of the firmware updates yet. Would make running Low-Mo on steadicam/dolly so much easier. Is it a fairly complicated feature to write in to the software??
 
Color problem

Color problem

Shooting yesterday, suddenly got a horrible green cast, like I'd lost most of blue and red channels. I had walked down the stairs with Scarlet on and perhaps my finger was on a preset key changing color temp. However LCD touchscreen/sidehandle would not let me change back to 3200K. Powered down and back up, still green, still wouldn't let me adjust color temp. I reinstalled firmware, problem fixed. The problematic shot shows 2300K in RedCine-X, adjusting color temp changes image a little, but it remains very green. I'm attempting to attach still examples. Already reported to Red support, is this a known problem? Anything else I should have done?

You probably accidentally hit the auto white balance button which will change the color temperature and tint. To reset the tint to 0 go to the advanced color temperature dialog.

You can open the advanced color temperature dialog using one of the following methods:
- Press UP with the color temp active
- Press and hold or double tap the color temp in the top bar
- Select '...' from the color temp list (newer firmware only)
 
Thank you, Trent. Is there some way of telling from the R3D in RedCine-X whether this is what happened?

Yes, the Tint value should be shown in the "Look: Image" pane directly below the Kelvin. Normally this will be 0 unless you manually change it or run the auto white balance. You can use the little "M" button to make sure you are seeing the META data reflected rather than your current setting in REDcine X
 
Thank you. When I checked thi,s Tint was all the way at 100, I slid it to 0, adjusted K to 3200 and image looks perfect, thank you RedRaw.
 
Would it be possible when viewing 'clean' on an HDMI monitor, to have the HDMI image in the 'magnify' mode match the image on the 5.6" LCD?

It's not as magnified on the HDMI, and it would help to be able to focus, for those of use with less than perfect vision.

So as not to cause any grief for those who like it like it is, maybe an assignable hotkey for how it is now, and one for a magnify that matches the LCD?

AFAIK the magnify feature gives you a pixel for pixel view which means the number of pixels in the display device you are looking at determines the amount of the image you are seeing. IE, if the SDI monitor is 1080 by 1920 then you are seeing a larger portion of the full frame than a 720 by 1280 monitor.

FWIW I think that is the best choice as any scaling could make judging focus less accurate since you couldn't be sure whether the slight softness was from missing the focal plane or the scaling engine in your monitor.
