I know the new RaptorX has improved preamps, but are the preamps in the VV camera really that bad that they cannot be used? I’m looking at the VV camera for some documentary & narrative work. Definitely planning to record audio in camera. Price difference for the X is $5k but I don’t “need” the...

CONTEXT: Hey guys, been shooting for years on the BMD cameras incl the original 12K. I have 5 EF mount zoom lenses that work for Super35 sensors. That’s what I have. What I’m wanting to do is shoot a docu-drama, probably 6K anamorphic. I would shoot 8K only when doing green screen virtual...

The Scarlet-X has been SOLD.

I have a bunch of .R3D media shot on the Scarlet-X at 4k. I need to give the edit to a VFX guy working in Nuke, and then get them back for Grading in Resolve. I am having a difficult time because every time I or the VFX guy render out the R3D's to any other format, beit .OpenEXR, .DPX, ProRes...

Is there a way to have a reference frame off to the side or as an overlay, so when I am correcting one shot I can still see a previously graded shot to compare it to?

I have a nMP 2013, so like everyone else who has the nMP I have a HDMI output that does not support 60hz, but I have a 4K TV that does. At 1/2 res I get RT playback just fine at 1920x1080. When I switch my 4K TV to 3840x2160, my computer starts dropping frames (yellow alert indicator appears...

I have a new Samsung 55" HU6950 4K TV and a rocket fish UHD compatible HDMI cable plugged into the HDMI port on the Mac Pro. The main problem I'm having is that my picture is out of sync with my audio from the line out Jack on the Mac Pro. I figured this might have something to do with the...

I've used this 2010 12-Core Mac Pro (32GB RAM) and Quadro 4000 card for 18 months and it could playback plain red footage at 1/2 res just fine (without fx). I gave it to my co-worker, he wiped the hard drive, re-installed OSX from scratch and now the computer drops 90% of the frames at 1/2 res...

I am getting weird lines across the screen. They tend to mostly appear in the upper left portion of the screen but sometimes in random other places as well. They appear for a frame several times a second (flickering) so its pretty annoying. This occurs on red and non-red footage so it doesn't...

According to Adobe's review by Dave Helmly the new Mac Pro should deliver realtime 4K playback (full-debayer), even with realtime effects such as a chroma key as demonstrated in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yZsUWV_8mI&feature=youtu.be. I just received our Mac Pro: 8-Core 3ghz...

Watching my CPU usage the last few weeks I noticed when rendering only 25% or less of my CPU power was being utilized. In an effort to increase horrendous results, I implemented the BG Render script. The result? Processing power reached an excess of 90%, but render times were longer. a BG Render...

I'm seeing mixed reviews, but wondering if Premiere 7.2.1 supports both FirePro GPUs in the new Mac Pro or when Adobe might add it? Will they? Seems that without dual GPUs specifically for playback in Premiere, we will never see the same results that FCPx users are getting (RT playback of 4+ 4k...

I'm on a Mac Pro 12-core 2.66 ghz 32MB RAM and when rendering a dynamic linked After Effects (12.2) comp in Premiere (7.2) my CPU usage is idling at 99% while my not very complex clip is rendering slower than molasses. What going on?Also, within 5 seconds after this clip rendered and the bar...

I'm working on a documentary project and so far I've got over 7,000 items that need to be loaded every single time I open the project and it takes at least 10 minutes. Then it has to index nearly 4,000 items before I can use the search option in Premiere, that takes another 10-15 minutes, and...

Is R3D playback in Premiere Pro CC using a single core or is it multi-threaded? I do not have a red rocket or anything. I am looking at options for the new Mac Pros and the 12-core Mac Pro scores fast for multi-threaded operations but the worst for single core benchmarks (bc its only 2.7ghz per...

I dont know if this has been discussed much in any other threads here but the Thunderbolt Bridge Networking now available in 10.9 Mavericks I see revolutionizing post-production networks in a good way! Some Articles: OS X 10.9 Mavericks Boost for Post Production Mavericks Now Has Thunderbolt...

Hey guys, need some help! What Ive got: (2) 12-core MacPro's. One is running a Quadro 4000 card, an eSata card and an ATI Radeon card) - Computers are 15ft apart. What I need to do: Find some way to share up to 12TB of media between the two computers. Options I've looked at so far: Various...

Just got a new Redmote a couple weeks ago and it won't stay connected to the camera for more than 5-7 minutes at a time. If I try to re-connect, the redmote goes from "searching" to "idle" and will never re-connect again unless I power down the camera and redmote and power both back up (a major...

Looking to sell some stock footage shot with my Scarlet. Is there is an obvious pick for a place that is well known for Red stock footage and will allow you to upload .R3D's? What is the best place to look for Red stock footage if I want to buy some? Or would it be the same place to both sell...

This is pretty crazy I have to ask this on a forum because nobody at Red will answer this.. but.. Will the Redmote charge on the back of the CinemaOxide V-Mount plate? (http://www.cinemaoxide.com/oxide-battery-plate.php) And why do I have to use my Red camera as a glorified AC adapter to...
