  • 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 :)

REDCINE Information

about a half hour away.. on a slow connection here. Dont worry its worth the wait.
 
Jarred you guys are freakin GODS!
I'm loving it!
 
Thanks very much for the open beta! Anxiously awaiting appearance of any .R3D files to try. Even just a single frame would be quite interesting.

I understand there is no formal support, but is there some organized way that we should document misbehaviors, should any occur ?

I'm running the recommended WinXP Pro XP2 32-bit system with 2 GB ram. Redcine opens up just fine, but after clicking around randomly, switching to "color" mode and tweeking the curves widget, the mouse freezes and the computer makes a short beep at about 30 second intervals while CPU is pegged at 50%. Of course, I have no .R3D file loaded yet in the program. Maybe that is the problem (?)

No R3D files is not the problem.

What graphics card and driver are you running? On XP - NVidia Quadro-core is what is recommended, and download the most recent drivers from the NVidia site.

If you're just running integrated mobo gfx on an older computer, things could get unpleasant. Take a look in your logfile close to the top where it has all the info about your gfx config (OpenGL section.) Does everthing say "available," or are there lots of "not available," and other ominous sounding stuff?

Thanks for the quick response! Looking in this logfile:
"C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\REDCINE\Settings\logs\REDCINE.log"

I observe the ominous warnings you mention. It looks like my computer is not worthy.
Maybe the app could say as much in large letters, eg. "don't expect me to work right with such miserable hardware as you've got here, buy a Nvida card..." or similar. Kudos for even attempting to run on junky hardware, though.

Unfortunately, you are correct. Although you may be worthy, your computer is not. Embedded ATI mobo gfx on XP are not great for GPU-enhanced OpenGL apps. Not a lot of goodness there.

You will probably be able to see R3D clips, but not do any color manipulations.

Stroll down to Best Buy tomorrow and spend a few hundred for a Quadro card of some kind and things will improve. Grand Theft Auto will run better too.

post it on the forum, with the word BUG - as a preface in the title.
 
After I download thw 'RedCine060_XP.zip files (3.2MB) I get the error message: 'The archive is either unknown format or damaged'
Done it on 2 computers now and get the same message.
Any clues?
 
My download failed once as well, David. Try many times with different browsers.

REDCINE may be beta but works flawlessly as far as I've seen. My only little complain is that the swipe menus are not appearing and disappearing too fluently in my computer.

NOT. There are bugs. Per the RED website - do NOT use this on a commercial project. Find the bugs and report them. That's what we are doing. For example, try exporting with a pulldown and check the TC, etc.
