These little guys keep your transcodes fast and cool! :biggrinjester:

No seriously, they did in fact speed things up a bit.

Well, loud is not the primary metric but there is truth in what he is saying.

Excellent. My MacBook Pro was reaching 90deg Celsius with cores maxed out rendering. That's with internal fans going full speed!! So these might save having to keep a huge fan blowing on my laptop! :smile:

The flame decals on cars add 5HP.

Its true.

And I put an Arri sticker on my Epic and it raised the rental price by half.

How do you max your cores out?

How do you max your cores out?

You Say you max your cores out on Red Cine?
My perennial problem is that they never max out....

How do you do it?

If you set it to export 6 clips at a time you can nearly max out a 12/24 core Mac Pro. Almost.

wow - i will send this along to my coworker who can't believe the new Mac towers aren't significantly faster (or at least not enough for him! . Very nice idea.

Eric and Van, take a look at this thread:

http://www.reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?69100-Exporting-from-Red-Cine-X-pro-using-multiple-cores

That's the first thread I ever saw that fully detailed out how to multi-process (I was missing the checkbox in the settings of my selected export-settings, even though I had it turned on in Preferences), and you'll see what the expected results should be. I just today did a bit of first-hand testing, and my results are detailed in that thread.

There is a better warrenty on the RED stick then their Red Rocket Card. Something is off here.

"All stickers carry a 5-year 3M guarantee against fading or cracking"

And the sticker is weatherproof.

 

[Bob Gundu]

Just to be safe I'd get the extended warranty too.
