  • 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 :)

DSMC Release v7.0.0

Michael from Wooden Camera reached out to me, and hopefully we can get my issue resolved. Didn't mean to slag off WC's stuff, the other stuff I've bought from them have been awesome! :)

As someone who is very involved in software development, it's never as simple as "it's only a few lines of code". It's frankly insulting to the RED Development and QA teams to insinuate that it can be that simple. Also, APIs and protocols change over time. If you reverse-engineer these protocols without the "blessing" of the owner, then you're out of luck when the protocols change. And it's well within RED's right to change those protocols whenever they want, and however they want, especially if the codebase has changed significantly, as with this IPP2 update. If WC's battery plate never had official approval to use the protocols, then it's not fair to blame Red for this. It seems like WC have realized this and are now engaging with RED to certify their products, as you can see that they've already done so with their Easy Top. I've actually had issues with the Pass-Through Top Plate and thinking of getting rid of it and replacing it with the Easy Top, but it's all on me because I chose to not use a RED-approved accessory.

Tom,

Good advice on the Redmags although in my experience I can usually mount the Redmags after a power failure although the last file is always unreadable. It may also depend on the OS you are running on your computer? Anyone initialising their Redmags with the UDF format will have a different experience.

Did anyone else get some crazy horizontal lines after updating? Restarted the firmware and it seems to be gone but never got that kind of reaction to a firmware update before

Happened to me twice today on a shoot.
 
Scot, please contact RED support, and I am sure they will want log files.

Hey Tom, the temperature control is tied to your sensor's calibration temperature. If you want the target temp default to be something other than what it is currently, perform your calibration once your camera's sensor has reached that temp.

For example, if you want the target temperature to be 41c at boot-up, make sure your currently applied calibration was performed at a sensor temperature at 41c.

Brad,

Thankyou for clearing up the correct order for changing calibration temperature. I am now reset and all ready for another record breaking summer
 
Updated firmware on my 8K s35 and found 2 issues:

1. Fan out of control in adaptive quiet mode.
2. Histogram won't change between RAW and Ipp2 with 709 output.

other than that... all great....

Same thing I told Scot : ) Please provide feedback to tech support so we can investigate.

Thanks Brent... I just did.... All good... its part of the process... loving it regardless the issues

i doubt that's the case, basically every mid range camera can do it.

If it's a hardware thing it should not be able to display 3D LUT whatsoever and the fact that we can monitor with a 17x17x17 3D LUT while recording is a proof that the SW is more than capable to do just that in playback mode. But I maybe wrong.
 
Hello , I have just updated my RAVEN to 7.0
I have noticed I get an Auto Calibration notification every minute or so, can anyone explain what that is and how to turn it off?
Whenever I put it my Sigma 18-35 lens I get a yellow message stating that "this lens does not support image stabilization" any info and how to turn this notification off as well?
Thanks!

Hey Ed, I read that it's good to do new black shades once you update firmware.

Perhaps they are pushing for them now, I have not updated yet but have not been asked on earlier versions.

Auto calibrations are the quicker blackshades, blackshades calibrate the noise floor and try to remove as much noise from the image.
 
Hey yeah, I see what you mean it is flashing auto calibrate at the bottom just as if you are pressing it as a user key or something...

There is always auto calibrations going on in the background right?

Really good news for me, this firmware seems to have fixed an issue I had with setting up ad-hoc wifi.
I was getting an error and was meaning to get that looked at.

I could only connect via infrastructure mode, but it appears ad-hoc is now working for me!

Thanks team.
 
Another thing I noticed, when switching between IPP2 and Legacy pipelines, on the 7" Redtouch LCD, the blacks seem to be lifted when going IPP2 (even on the interface and outside of the picture area). Even with the more contrasty IPP2 Profile. The blacks are not black, they are lifted.

Am I the only one seeing this, and is this normal behaviour ?

Thanks !

People were confused about the slight screen-stutter every few seconds in idle mode, not realizing the camera was applying a newly updated auto calibration at that moment. So now the notification is there to let the user know what is happening. None of this happens during record.
 
Thank you guys! So exited to load this up on the Helium! And I am very thankful I ditched the WC stuff for the Red V Mount Pro back, which is super solid.
 
So is it actually calibrating the sensor every minute?
Because I did a black shade just after firmware update and everything looks great.
any way to turn those notifications off ?
