Could RedCine write .RSX files

[Scott Mason]

I don't see that it can, so I would like to pose the question. (And I searched for this but redcine and rsx are too common to search)

Currently our workflow is simple:

1) SHOOT WHATEVER
2) DOWNLOAD TO SERVER
3) REDLINE QUICKTIMES TO 1080
or compressor before we had redline scripts
4) IMPORT INTO FCP AND FINISH

now we can
5) COLOR GRADE IN RED ALERT WHILE WE EDIT
(Create .rsx files attached to .r3d)
6) RENDER REDLINE TO SAME NAME (Overwrite existing files)
7) ONLINE WITH SAME FILES (FILES ARE REPLACED BY FCP)

This is done so we can get to the offline quicker and while we have time we color grade our shots then render over the original names.

Now if RedCine could write those .RSX Files we could load all the shots in at once and grade them together instead of one at a time.

Then I am sure ibloom can have crimson take our edl and render just the .r3d files we used with in and out points through redline (handles would be killer) and joula easy workflow. (Or RedCine takes in the edl...dreaming I know)

anyway, is it possible for RedCine to make .RSX files in the folder like redAlert does?

Seconded. It would also be nice if the camera itself could read RSX files instead of (or in addition to) its current look file format. That way, you could use the same looks throughout the the entire production process.

I suspect something like this is the eventual goal, but it would be nice to hear from Red how close we might be.
