  • 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 :)

Red One Pipeline Diagram v1.0

Connectors

Connectors

EVF and LCD are customised DVI on a Hirose push lock connector

HDMI uses a standard HDMI connector and pin out, just plug in a HDMI cable

There is a companion HD-SDI that shares the same 720p feed as the HDMI

So whether you have an HD-SDI or HDMI (DVI via an HDMI-DVI adaptor) you have an appropriate monitoring output.
 
Stuart,
Wow, a lot happening in the output stage!

When you say 'customised DVI' on Hirose connector, do you mean standard DVI signal 'customised' for Hirose connector.

DF
ps: you can guess what my next question is gonna be!
 
Michael, You might consider putting a * by the 2/3 B mount.... and a note below

* Use of 2/3 B mount requires a S16 Optical adapter.

IMO

I suggest this because we keep getting folk who believe the sensor windows in two ways in both S16 and 2/3....
 
One area that seems to have escaped much discussion is audio.
What options are available?

Clean up

Clean up

Getting very close -

Keep the first e-SATA as e-SATA - i.e the one that feeds the RED-DRIVE etc

Change the second one to SATA - i.e the one that feeds the RED-FLASH options
 
Michael, what a work of art or labor of love or ....

About the speeds of acquisition: ie 1 to 30 FPS. NTSC tv is not 30 frames per second it is actually 29.97... fps. Does RED vary in even frames like for film transfer 24 30 etc. or do we also have speeds such as 29.97 and 23.97 for easy TV transfer?

Is the variable speed of RED like... 1fps 2 fps 3 fps etc etc. or is it in smaller divisions ie 5.62 fps?
 
Thanks Anders, you are better at looking this up than me and English is my first language... Are the steps in variable speed in there somewhere???
Thanks

Michael perhaps these speeds could be added.... as we are all looking at your flowchart now....
 
HDMI and HD-SDI 720p

HDMI and HD-SDI 720p

In the spirit of keeping this accurate, the HD preview signal output pair - consisting of HDMI and HD-SDI currently operate at 720p, irrespective of the format being shot.

This has previously been discussed elsewhere on the forum, so is not "new" information. Of course 1080p is available from the "dual link" HD-SDI outputs.

i.e there are three HD-SDI's , one is a 720p based HD Preview and is mirrored on the HDMI output, the other two comprise the "dual link" HD-SDI outputs. The description of those (i.e liked or duped) is correct.
 
Michael:

This has been such an awesome effort by you--thank you! I know many users here appreciate all your hard work, your graphic design skill, your valuable time, and effort that you've put into keeping this thing clear, concise, and up-to-date. Again, THANK YOU!
 
Micheal.. incredible stuff. so good infact, that im making this its own sticky thread.
 
Jarred,

Many thanks. I'm glad the exercise of clarifying things for myself has been useful to so many others.

I'll continue to update the diagram, which will automatically update in this thread and the first page of the sticky.

Best,

Michael

Stuart, we already discussed monitoring at 1080p and you convinced me that it is not a good time for this yet. So the first HDMI is coupled with the monitoring port.

I have one question, how difficult it is to make another HDMI output functionally coupled with the “dual link” HD-SDI ? So the same output will show on both.
I am just interested to take 4:4:4 RGB out on HD-SDI and HDMI.

Get an HDLink for $445.
 
I don't think the HDLink does 1080p60. Just 24, 25 and 30.
 
More Monitoring Options....

More Monitoring Options....

Hey Michael and the rest who are interested in monitors that accept HD-SDI dual-link inputs.

Check out this link:
http://www.tvlogic.co.kr/eng/index.php

I have been a happy user of their product and have used their 8.4 inch field monitor on documentary shoots with a range of Panny's and Sony's HD cameras with great results. Not sure how this will translate to monitoring for the RED One.

I don't work for them or have any financial interest, just helping the community to be more aware of the available options out there.

Check this baby out!
