Fix this bug so everybody can use RED TRIP withot problems

[Cüneyt Kaya]

i realized something different that is really important.

1.i dont have my cam yet,hence i cant produce footage, hence i use redrelay and the silverado footage.
2. Hence i am now in a EDITOR POSITION who just received footage.
3.Red trip worked great with footage provided through redrelay, but i couldnt work with the footage from silverado.
4.The reason is not RED TRIP, instead it is REDCINE!!!!!
I get blue images in redcine...the viewer tells me

"failed to lock image buffer"

This happens
1. When i use the load all function...
2. When i import a redcine XML

I hope it is user error, and someone tells me how to avoid.

after searching through the forum i realized i am not the only one with this problem.

see here:

http://www.reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?t=7961

So i went back to redcine build 74 and suddenly the blue images are gone.

-------edit after quitting and relaunching the blue appears again.

Hence as long as redcine doesnt fix this problem, it is really important to tell people, who received copied footage...to use build 74.
(but i dont know why this problem doesnt appear with footage through redrelay)

So please one of the Red Gurus help me...

I was having the blue "failed to lock image buffer" message when trying to jump to full res high. Thought it was the previous build of REDCINE, but it turns out that it's a corrupt R3D file.

I haven't worked with the Silverado footage but I've heard a lot of people having troubles with it. Does it do it with several files or just one or what? I'm thinking you have a bad R3D file.

 

[Cüneyt Kaya]

its completly random, everytime i open redcine another file is blue.

 

[Jeff Kilgroe]

Weird. What are the system specs? I'm still thinking it's a file i/o error, possibly a video card issue.

Two of my Silverado discs wouldn't work, as in they wouldn't mount. But the two that did mount seemed to load into Redcine okay and export okay. I'll try again with most recent build of Redcine.

I tried Silverado footage last week with Vista and had problems also..does anyone know if redcine will run on Vista?

red alert works fine with the silverado footage.

so redcine has a bug OR the silverado get damaged when copied to a DVD, or copied to my HDD.
arising question:

So what exactly causes this blue image problem,
where in the pipeline is the error?

its important to know, so mistakes in the future can be avoided when handing out .r3d files to clients, or to get a workaround...

has somebody who owns a camera now experienced something similar...
either in redcine or when .r3d files are copied.

Folks,

Most likely a combination of badly burned discs and shooting with older firmware on the camera.

That's what you get when you distribute 10 terabytes of data to over 300 people...

;-)

If you have a bad disc, send a message to red@silverado.cc and we'll send out a replacement.

Torrey, even with the two bad discs I got, just having some footage to work with when I didn't have a camera was very helpful. So, in my case, no need to send the two replacements. I appreciate that you guys did this, and for free.

Thanks,
Steve
