RED ROCKET Question

[Justin Marx]

Hey guys, does the RED ROCKET speed up transcoding for 5D Footage too? I know 5D BAD! But I'd love to cash in a bit on some transcoding jobs when the RR is not working with my EPIC!

Thanks!!

you say canon 5d?

Nope, only debayers RAW R3D files.

5d doesn't need to be decoded, it runs beautyfly as it is
sorry Justin, could not resist

I have to say the 5D has been good to me over the last year.. Paid for my EPIC, so feel free to say whats on your mind ;-) lol

No problem Justin. All great tools, 5D included. The Rocket is an absolute speciLty item but worth it's weight in gold as it makes the Red dream come true.

Nope just have a computer with as many cores as you can afford and make good use of Streamclip's threaded jobs feature.

Thank you Hudson.. Looking at building a system with a 12 Core EEK! expensive!! Hahaha

Heres a tip.. use ROO VID to transcode.. Happens real time and will transcode up to 4 streams at once (on our 12 core) mostly two streams in a laptop, but still very fast.

Just did a quick test in my laptop then, converted a 2 minute HD h264 clip into PRORES in 2 mins 5 seconds...

The last time I tried to edit in FCP 5D footage... it was quite raggered...
Premier it plays ok.
Avid.. forget it.
