How are you dealing with no DRX with RedRocket?

[Bob Gundu]

I do not have a Red Rocket card but I am curious how you guys that transcode are dealing with this? I see many videos that have the dreaded magenta clipped highlights and it drives me mad. I just saw this video https://vimeo.com/42811051 and it's riddled with that. I suppose a CC pass in your NLE can neutralize it. Just curious.

ive never had magenta clipped highlights before and ive shot a lot of stuff in sunlight with red one and epic. maybe its a result of something they did in post on that video

Never had an issue with this, only way I know to get these kind of magenta artifacts is to use a low ISO setting in RCX when you have clipped highlights. Shooting low ISO on Red is never a good idea anyway.
Normally you would never get this magenta color cast on blown-out highlights, even without DRX.

There are times when I really wish that having a red rocket in our system did not disable the DRX function... Weirdly it is is not because of magenta highlights... (to red team) is it possible to have DRX worked into a red rocket piped file in the future?

Thanks
