  • 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 :)

Did you guys forget about the Red 1?

Did you guys forget about the Red 1?

I don't have any complaint about Build 18 or 17 and its work-flow, it's already accomplished in a way. I started out Fujica Single 8 in a 1960's and my first 16 mm movie camera was Canon Scoopic that my mother bought for me in 1971 and just accepted Nihon University, College of Art, Film department that time we had only one film school in Japan and I loved my scoopic. And, I slept with it. But, I never got brand new film camera after that.
I purchased used Bolex, Cinema Products CP16, Arri 16 SR and I ended up eventually bought video camera like little Pany's 24p DVX for small project, then suddenly Jim Janard showed up in DVX's forum, it's was joke or whatever.
What I'm saying here is, I fall in love RED ONE and I felt and remind my teen-ager days (almost 40 something years ago), I never been so happy to own RED ONE and it makes incredible pictures.
I and my co-league are so happy and we are shooting this week also on a location.
RED ONE is my pet and also real work-horse.

Thanks Jim and your company.

We know.. but we have R1s now.. no one is saying you're not trying btw,

..exporting a 24bit (or 32bit) AIFF audio file from Redcine would be very useful, not sure AVI or WAV is setup to handle a standardized 24bit audio format on a PC yet.. and audio output IS needed.

Trying to maximize Redcine output speed using GPU power is laudable given the R1s magnificient resolution, but when its meant to be a keystone transcoding tool for the proprietory R3D format, being CPU driven and DirectX/OpenGL/H.A.L free might be a safer, more reliable, "development hassle free" experience for all involved. A tool that "works", is worth more than a slightly faster one that doesn't..

Being able to minimize it would help too (so TIFF/DPX output can be checked, the right side of a five or more hour export..) ..in short, "PC Red Alert" or similar.. thats just what the designer in me says..

I know personally I'm a tough customer to please, but not ungrateful for what has been achieved..

I'd settle for Redline for PC, now that would be cool, and probably the least effort to produce, just make sure it handles audio..I'll create the GUI with curves and histograms..

very VERY cool, exactly what I was thinking...told my brother at some point; "I bet they are using the R1 as a bed to develop the software/firmware side of ALL future Red product" :) schweet!

-O
 
That also says in my mind that future RED product will have the same interface +/- the features on each product line. :)

BTW Adobe/Scratch workflow is getting silky smooooth....
 
I'm ready for a new, bug free build and a new Redcine.
 
OK, what we all need is some beans. We just need someone to spill `em.

With the RED guys in the know and us left out BLUE in the cold makes us go GREEN in envy!

Chosei,

I still have my scoopic too, although it does not see much action. I have a zoom from another scoopic that I put a pl mount on and have shot some 2k with it on my red. Looks pretty good as well.

Best, Peter

Downloading it now... thanks BTW!

I read the readme and saw this:

NEW FEATURES:
Embedded audio into QT file output.

FIXES:
n/a

So am I missing something or are there no fixes and only 1 new feature?
 
Brent,

You cheated! You were supposed to spill beans, not drop the whole bean bag!

But I ain't not complainin'....

Any word on proxy support for anamorphic footage?

Starting a shoot here soon and it'd be really nice to not have to downconvert on set just for playback from the DIT.

Thanks!
