REDCINE-X Build 183...

[Deanan]

Deanan, very strange behaviour here: RCX 183 Windows 7, works very fast and well with the Red Reel original R3d I downloaded, but not at all with original R3d files shot with my cam and build 30.4.1 Mysterium non X sensor. Very slow with older R3d (build 21...) and freezes always when I try to export quicktimes.
Do you think its something wrong with my cam? Did you check the LOG file?
Thank you,
Marc

It sounds like some corrupt footage.
Can you send us a clip?

I'm getting Red Export.exe errors, and when I use a setting other than RedSpace or RedGamma and then render RCX 158 crashes.

But the files appear to have rendered to Avid MXF 1080.23.976 DNXcel 36 OK when I stay in RedSpace and RedGamma rather than selecting Rec709...but I'm having no luck being able to get them into my Symphony Nitris to check these files to see if picture and sound is any good. My Console says "[ Plugin Name = MXF Plug-in Vendor Name = Avid Technology, Inc. Version = 1.0 ] could not process J:\Cuda tests\a003_c001_0313ep\A003_C001A011FA4EAA1.mxf"

I saw in the latest download folder something called AVX_plugins2...and a plugin called AvidMediaToolkit -is that something I have to add into the AVX plugins directory for Avid?

The plugins are only for redcinex.

It's hard to tell if it's just not importing properly or if the render didn't finish ok. email me with more specifics. Thanks.

That's the difference between rec709 color space and red color.

What settings should I use and I'll run the test again. I've tried both rec709 and Red Color, but there's no change in the color saturation. Every setting I've tried still has the Red and Blue level too high relative to the Green level. Apple's Color has a massive amount more separation between channels. It's like night and day.

Try updating your drivers to the latest on nvidia's site.

The 3500 came out about 4 years ago so there could be something RCX is doing that's not supported on that card. Do you have a newer card you can try?

I double checked and I have the latest drivers. I don't have a newer card on hand but I'm willing to get one. What video card do you guys use at Red? Do you have a list of approved video cards or at least some recommendations? Thanks.

Photo export of Anamorphic Footage - Please De Squeeze

Photo export of Anamorphic Footage - Please De Squeeze

This may have been covered before.

And it may be user error.

When dealing with anamorphic footage, can you make the export of a jpeg using the camera button de-squeezed.

Now it seems to only export the original image not the de-squeezed iname you are working on.

In another thread someone suggested to check that your opengl is not set to opengl1.1 in the driver settings.

Which version of the color plugin are you using?

I got it to work! I bit the bullet and upgraded to Windows 7 64bit and then downloaded the latest windows 7 driver using Nvidia's advanced search. I can now play footage!

thanks for your help!

Which graphics card?
Alot of changes were made to the video player to speed it up after 104.

I believe its a Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD with the latest drivers from HP. I'm going to try to force the much newer drivers straight from Intel to install and see if that helps.

ETA: Well, it started! Now to see if everything else is working.

Love the new layout and the activation of project features...works great!

One problem though, no matter what I select in the Debayer settings pop-out box, all DPX files I export are rendered out at the "FULL" setting.

I'm using Win XP-32bit.

 

[Eirik Tyrihjel]

My 183 crashes when I try to export a timeline, had to go back to a previous version. (made multiple attempts, it crashes before it writes anything)
Project is 3k (due to 50fp), a little over an hour, some shot on build 30 (non-mx) and some on build 21.4.1

I´am on:
Mac os x 10.6.2
2x2.8Ghz quadcore intel xeon
RED Rocket™™™™™™™™™™™™™™™ installed.

In Windows version, Control F will toggle player window to full size, but will not toggle it back to original size. Had to exit the program by pulling full screen out of the way and exiting program from "file-exit". When I reopened the program the screen was still supersized but was not on top of the other windows. When I toggled from the "window" section, the screen became full and forward again and has never gone back to original size.

Running Windows 7 64 bit RC-Build 7100

 

[John O'Callaghan]

I also am experiencing the Control F problem with the full size window.

Some r3d clips will not drag/drop into the timeline, then they disappear from the bin as well.

Also, I've tried r3d shots from builds 20, 21 and 30 (2x1 and 16x9) and they all export at FULL Debayer no matter what I select in the pop-out box.

What debayer settings do you have selected?

Can you email the log files to redcinex at red dot com?

 

[Eric Haase]

yes we have considered it and it's on the todo list.

Awesome. I'm really looking forward to a still store implementation. Thank you.

Have been playing with RCX183 and would like to please know the following:

What do the Debayer Values settings do in the Export Settings box.
As there are options for 2k, 3k and 4k.

But I'm transcoding to HD720 and want to setup my Debayer setting but this box is confusing to me.

Also where can I choose the Debayer filter which is applied as there doesn't seem to be anywhere where I can do this.

Where can I choose what Timecode is using in the transcoded QT file.
I want to use EdgeCode.

How can I save my Detail settings (Sharpness & Denoise) in the Look presets and apply them to my Bin for exporting correctly?

I really wish the software packages would have a consistent naming convention for the debayer quality as does LOW = 1/4 MEDIUM = 1/2 HIGH =1/1

Where can I select the amount of CPU cores for rendering to be used?
And how many clips it renders at once?

Debayer: You can set a debayer type for each source resolution so if you want 4k to use a half and 2k to use a full debayer. This was a frequent reduser request.

Timecode setting is in the next significant build.
I believe it's auto selecting now based on what was primary on camera.
(will have to get back to you on that but the explicit setting will be better).

RCX doesn't use redline to render like redrushes did.
More multithreading is being worked on.
