  • 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 :)

less than 48 hours...

Okay, it turns out that even though the installer SAID it installed it...it did not. I did a manual uninstall of the old plugin and then installed it. It works now, but still fairly slowly. I can get the M proxies to play at 24 fps if I disable high quality, but the H proxies still only play at around 12 fps:( I might see if there is some way to go back down on QT to 7.4.5

And I don't see build 16 either...got my RED up and running ready to upgrade!

Stew,

F is for FULL

if you shot 2k F is for FULL resolution
If you shoot 4K F is for FULL resolution.
I have now played back 4K resolution QT files.

David

Correct

Shoot 2K -> _F = 2K
Shoot 3K -> _F = 3K
Shoot 4K -> _F = 4K

Do keep in mind that 3K & 4K _F movies can currently crash QT player. Working with Apple on that one.
 
7.5 is not recommended yet....7.4.5 is what RED recommends.

Correct, I ran a quick test (so no official recommendation) with 7.5 on Tiger today and it seems to work okay. Again, we're not officially recommending it yet!
 
Is anyone else having worse playback than before with this version? I've got an 8 core MacPro with 10 GB ram and here's the kicker....QT 7.5:( If no one else is having issues, I'm guessing that QT 7.5 is the issue.

Matthew

Performance might indeed be down a bit (it is a beta!).

Now that that basic build 16 stuff is out of the way I will be focussing on:

1) Optimizations for better performance

2) SDK

3) Integration with other products and platforms

Sometimes you have to take a small step back before you can make the giant leap forward.

Have fun playing with this incredible build and rest assured that we'll be hard at work on the 3 points listed above.

No sleep for us yet :ninja:

Rob,

Is it now FULL quality de-bayer or is that somehow selectable?

David: it always is for _F (Full) movies

In high-quality (QT player & FCP) that is also true for _H (Half) resolution movies

For the next release I'm planning to have a way to select if you want a fast / lower quality codec for _F and no debayer for _H (like the older codecs).

Build 16 is all about quality (improvements). Now we're back to expanding the stuff we have.

More news on all of this soon!

It sounds like the server is dropping the connection before you guys are able to completely download it. Several people have reported successful downloads and upgrades already.
