For some reason, whenever I export a red file (havent tried with other file types just yet) rather than exporting a widescreen image as it shows when grading and as it should having shot in "4k" it is exporting what appears to be a 4:3 box and letterboxingthe footage to the correct aspect. The...

Rented the scarlet this week for a short thinking it would have the standard 5 pin lemo to jam timecode with our audio recorder/slate, but obviously we now know it doesnt have a 5 pin, only the proprietary 4 pin connector to the sync port. Called 4 different rental houses in the area to see if...

Long time fcp user here; i'm used to cropping my red footage to 2:35 with the "matte" fcp plugin, which was awesome, it let me choose my crop, and even play with the offset to reframe shots. Does avid have something similar? The effects I have tried either do the incorrect crop or don't have...

Hey guys, question about maximizing the Scarlett's performance. We recently did a short that we shot on the scarlet using red color 2 and gamma 2 on set. When it became time to color grade, we brought the footage into rcx and switched to Redlogfilm. This resulted in a lot of noise in the...

Hey guys, what is the best way for me to get out of avid and back into red cine? I transcoded my red files to dnxhd36 and imported their aaf into avid for an offline edit, now that edit is complete and i'm having trouble getting everything to re link in red cine. Whats the best way to go about...

Long time final cut user here, in the middle of migrating to avid and running into a bunch of workflow and program related issues. I am cutting and color grading a project that was shot on the scarlet at 4k. My intention is to create proxy files for editing in avid using red cine, cut the film...
