  • 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 :)

Beta Camera Build 3.2.8

Tehben Dean said:
My REDmote isn't connecting for the upgrade. There is now an app instead of the terminal thing. Should it be as simple as make sure the REDmote is plugged in, has the correct IP and then open the app and hit connect? I tried for a while and no luck....

Are you on Mac/PC?

On Mac, double check your network settings (System Preferences -> Network) and make sure your IPv4 settings are changed to manual and you have entered in the correct gateway and IP address as per the manual. The dot next to the device should change from red to green when it is linked.

If that doesn't work, I would try a different USB port on your computer.
 
Um, when I downgraded the Epic to 3.0.6 and was trying to do the same with the REDMOTE, it said that I couldn't downgrade to this version. Neither 3.0.0 or 2.0.5... Any ideas? The bar went all the way on my mac but then when continuing on the REDMOTE it stopped.

In the REDmote 3.1.6 readme:
* You will not be able to roll back to earlier firmware revisions than v2.0.13 after installing v3.1.6

We'll get this called out on the 3.2.8 release page.

Please use the REDMote version included in the 3.0.7 release:

Jarred, would it be possible to install a function on the camera where you press a button and a sandwich and a cup of coffee come out. That seems to be the only think missing in this build. This firmware is much much beta than the old one.
 
Thanks.
 
Scarlet Build Q:

I have 3.0.0 now - do I have to FIRST load up 3.0.6 (or whatever the most RECENT Firmware WAS) THEN 3.2.8...? Or can I just upgrade regardless of CURRENT firmware in the camera?

Thanks as always. You guys are a-m-a-z-i-n-g.

Would be nice if someone could do a list like this for scarlet. Interesting if there is a couple of extra fps here and there and in the new hd formats.

Sorry about the delay. I got in well after 3am last night and didn't have the brain juice left to pump something out.

I made a Red Format Key that contains the format name, max fps, resolution, and aspect ratio. I've included both Epic and Scarlet information on the same key; hopefully useful to those using Epic and Scarlet in A/B cam situations.

I have also updated the Epic and Scarlet Data Sheet threads to include this key and updated the data sheets themselves with the new firmware details. They can be found stickied at the top of the Epic and Scarlet sections of Reduser, or just simply click the links in my signature to find them.

Phil, Nice job with the updated chart.

Here are some minor edits needed:

* 5K 2:1 has a 2:1 aspect ratio
* 5K WS has a resolution of 5120x2160
* 5K HD has a resolution of 4800x2700
* The max frame rate for 4K HD is 121 fps (EPIC)
* The max frame rate for 3K and 3K HD is 160 fps (EPIC)
* The max frame rate for 2K HD is 240 (EPIC)
* The max frame rate for 1K HD is 89 fps (Scarlet)
* The resolutions for 2K and 2K HD swapped
* 1K WS has a 2.66:1 aspect ratio.
 
Installed the new beta firmware and it worked like a charm first go. My biggest irritation and concern has been addressed: stuttering of the display -> silky smooth now!
Thanks Red.

Thanks Phil for your work,

Could you include FW version or the date? Your chart will be used a lot I think and it's allways good to know if what we have stored in our computers are up to date...

Thanks

I am thrilled with the new build but was really hoping Prerecord would be included. I know there are not a ton of wildlife people using Epics but Prerecord is really, really important to us.

Thank you,
Judy

I totally agree. Having had this on the Red One I am astounded that it is still not implemented on the Epic.

It is not just for wildlife, but anything unpredictable.
Especially with no way to delete clips on the camera.
 
Ran into my first serious beta SNAFU on set today with my NON-upgraded Epic-M.

Yesterday I installed the new beta firmware (3.2.8), and all seemed fine.

Today I was shooting and after 5 hours I got an error when i hit the record button, The error was followed with a shutdown-screen that said to contact Red Support. I tried many things including SYSTEM RESTORE (which did not immediately fix the problem). Eventually after 30 minutes of trying various things to regain operational status, it started to record again. Then 30 minutes later the same problem started to happen again. I only had the side-handle attached. I took that off, switched to AC adapter, swapped SSDs (which would format fine) but every time I pressed the RECORD button it would error out and need to shutdown.

I've submitted a bug report to Red Support, and am going to roll back to the latest production release.
