  • 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 :)

Crimson Workflow is available for download.

Thanks Ian!

I noticed two issues after install. When I try to add a location for my R3D search, I am not allowed to. Fortunately, it looks like you improved the way in which Crimson searches for files because if I just hit MATCH, it located what I need.

Second issue is when I go to Export a Redcine XML, I get an error message reading,

An unexpected error has occured

(TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -: 'NoneType' and 'NoneType')


I'll report more as I continue to dig

Thank You
 
Solved the Redcine XML error message. I accidentally loaded more than 50 clips and that was causing it. Still can't figure out why I can't mount locations..
 
Sheesh, keeping me on my toes this morning Richard. I found both problems. Apologies:
9.4B is up!! http://www.crimsonworkflow.com/download.htm

Now can I get back to fun stuff?:

I'm getting the same issue as Richard as well with the new release of 0.9.4B.


"Second issue is when I go to Export a Redcine XML, I get an error message reading,

My XML is smaller than 50 clips, and when I select "Use Complete Takes", it fills the "Render In" and "Render Out" with appropriate data. However, when I try and select "Use In Out Points", it doesn't change the values. Ideas?
 
We've been dealing with this issue. 9.4C is being released this morning to attempt to resolve the problem. It has to do in part with the match status of all clips.

By the way, there is no 50 clip limit in Crimson, I'd like to put that myth to rest.

Been encountering a persistant bug when choosing a location for the Roundtrip XML. After browsing, locating a folder, choosing a name, and pressing SAVE, I receive this error:

Bug has been present in the first and the current 0.9.4 releases.

Pesky bugs come out of nowhere ;) Fix posted. Thanks.

I have been getting this error trying to import an xml out of the newest Crimson along with the last one that was out. Also I was reading on the Crimson forum about how someone saved an xml out of RedCine and then opened it up with Crimson, which I haven't been able to do because Crimson tells me that there are now attributes.
 
SORRY FOR POSTING THIS TWICE... I JUST REALIZED I SHOULD POST IT HERE RATHER THAN ON ITS OWN... an admin can delete my other post if desired...

Ok so... I'm following the Crimson Workflow... using cowboy intermediate... everything is going well, but when I export my clips to quicktime from Redcine it is exporting them as 1 clip... i don't want this... i want everything exported as separate clips... can this be done?

I've never dealt with dpx files and don't plan on doing it anytime soon...

this is a time-sensitive edit...

Thanks!
 
In the output name of redcine you need to click input file names (the #F command) This will give you individual files.
 
Crimson, Ian has good help, good support. The Crimson's XML works perfectly in RedCine as I wished.

Hope you have many more customers

I just watch your video demo, and its looks great!!! Does that mean that I can use this procedure to export my film DPX for the final print?

Francois,

Redcine is not a very good program for color correction because it has no video scopes or support for an external monitor, and it only does primary color correction. Most people use Redcine to do an initial pass, and then take the files they export into another finishing program such as Apple Color.

Making a film print takes an extra level of calibration, most would use an experienced colorist at a facility that does alot of film transfers.

The purpose of Crimson is to move sequences through Redline or Redcine, making it possible to debayer after an initial cut.

Warm regards,
IBloom
