Build 15 & 16 news...

[Brook Willard]

Since the EVF and HD-SDI are the same resolution, I'd imagine it's all three at once. Anything less would be very unfortunate.

 

[Jannard]

Stuart,

Will 15 let me have EVF + LCD + HD-SDI ALL at the same time - or do I have to choose EVF or LCD + HD-SDI?

What I really want to know is if I can get LCD + EVF at the same time.

Yes to what you want... everything is hot. This is the primary reason we are releasing this build now.

[Shawn Nelson]

What about all four? EVF+LCD+HDMI+HD-SDI? It's a video village dream!

 

[SF Geek]

Once again, will we be able to switch between a recordable image and a monitor image? One clean with nothing outside the frame and one with lookaround and assists and whatever? Perhaps one with embedded timecode?

 

[Stuart English]

What's hot.

What's hot.

Yes, subject to HDMI and HD-SDI both being 1280 x 720p. These two outputs share a common signal source which can be either 1280 x 720 or 1280 x 848. However, when its in 1280 x 848 mode, the HD-SDI chipset says *!*!* and refuses to pass that signal, so only the HDMI output is active in practice.

.......no 1080p on HD-SDI until we enable 1080p RGB recording.......

Stuart,
Understand you have coupled 1080p record/monitor but I'm concerned with 1080p monitoring at this stage.

What's the estimated build date on 1080p monitoring?

Regarding 1080p recording, was this where Jim said he didn't know why people wanted it onboard, but he would create a separate build for this but it wasn't a priority?

Dave,

So EVF/LCD and HDMI at 1280x848 should work, right?

 

[Mark L. Pederson]

Yes to what you want... everything is hot. This is the primary reason we are releasing this build now.

Jim

Thanks Jim. You the man!

brilliant. split it up and give what we can use now and the rest a little later after some good qc.

Is that a temporary thing or will we always be incapable of getting both the HDMI 1280x848 + HDSDI?

If it's a permanent thing, what are the odds of getting some more information on the HD-SDI monitor?

 

[Steve Freebairn]

What if the monitor supports 1280x1024, will HDMI work still? or does the monitor specifically have to support 1280x848?

Also, while we're talking about 16x9 and audio, will Redcine be able to export audio any time soon? It would be great if it could. Also, will we be able to "make quicktimes" from Redcine and have them keep the one light color correction and audio? How many months do we have to wait for PC proxy playback?

 

[Justin Kirchhoff]

Multiple-outputs...that's awesome!

 

[Denis Buhot]

sleep mode ???

sleep mode ???

Good news is that Build 15 Beta will be released this week. It is kick-ass. All outputs work and tons of new features and improvements.

But... not a hint at a "sleep-mode" feature...How can I use a camera in the field with no "sleep-mode"... Big deal ? Or could it be that the feature wouldn't substantially affect the power consumption ?

buhot... why don't you just wait until that feature is enabled. Shoot something else in the meantime if that is a feature you just cannot live without. There are plenty of options.

Ok, no way I mean to underestimate what you Red people have already achieved, nor stand on the "never happy" side. It's just that the feature seems so simple in comparison with all the rest... AND, when it comes to shooting something else that doesn't require a sleep mode : I ONLY shoot wildlife, and wildlife does require it, and so does most of the eng style shooting when power supply is a limitation...Do you suggest I should consider gunning my sister-in-law in the meantime... ? I'm REALLY contemplating it, at times... Besides, I don't have my red yet, and I find it hard to think of shooting anything at all that will not finally look like a red image.. just a waste :biggrin:

jim can you tell me the status of the red ram solid state flash drive

since you answered status on everything else:biggrin:

really curious

please and thank you

Prototypes are being used now (I have one)... not too far off. They seem to work great.

Yes, that should work fine - but test, some very cheap P.C monitors won't...

 

[Jannard]

Stuart is up late!

Did Brent mention 24/7 support?
