  • 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-X Professional Build 10 Beta...

Status
Not open for further replies.
We are indeed considering adding FCP X xml support. Just need to see how it works and schedule it with the other priorities.

It looks like there might be some issues with audio levels & keyframe round-tripping:

Anyone know if this sort of stuff has been fixed since then?

I got a request for Metadata to be embedded in a TIFF that we create in RCX Pro for use in Photoshop or lightroom..Can we get this?

There actually already is an RCX feature to embed metadata in TIFF files: snapshots will embed XMP metadata by default (this includes the "Send to PS" option in the Stills panel), while it must be turned on in custom export presets.
Note that XMP metadata can be read by Photoshop, Lightroom, and other Adobe products like Bridge.
To turn it on in export presets, hit Setup... in the Export Settings dialog, making sure TIFF is the current format, and select "Include XMP".
The embedded XMP includes some basic metadata like timecode, aperture, the path to the source R3D, and some other user editable ones such as the rating and label of the clip/still.
 
Cool features. but how about the alchemy, will it be re-activated anytime soon?

P.S: jim, ur suppose to be having a well deserved vacation ;)

I don't see where to find aperture in the meta of a tiff.
Click to expand...
Note that the aperture metadata needs to be present in the R3D itself before it can be embedded in the TIFF.
Ditto for the other metadata such as F-stop, etc.
Check first if the clip has the aperture metadata by right-clicking on the clip in REDCINE-X, choosing Metadata... and searching for aperture.
It may be that the clip you're testing with does not have aperture as metadata.
If the clip does have that metadata, you should be able to see it in Photoshop in the File/File Info... dialog under Camera Data.

BUG (Mac version)

Preview button is not working with "Meta" and Apply button with "Meta" crashes RCX
Click to expand...
Thanks, Laco. For now, you can work around this bug by using the M/D buttons on the Viewer as a substitute for Preview Meta,
and the M and D buttons on the Look Manager panel as a substitute for Apply Meta.
This will be fixed in the next build.

This hasn't fixed the bug I've found where RCX-P (Win64) is hanging on startup. When I double click the icon to start it the application hangs before the GUI is launched. If I double click it again I get the "Red Rocket is in use by an another application" error and THEN the interface launches.

Win7/64
RR Driver 1.4.7.0 Firmware 1.1.14.38
Nvidia GTX 480

Same problem with Beta 9. Beta 8 reinstalls and still works though.

Do you need a log file sent in? Any suggestions?

Not sure. Ive only used it to resolve and back.

Great news that it might be coming in a future build. It's good to know it's on the radar..

Thanks Rob

Nope right now the FCPxml is still pretty basic and wasn't updated... cuts, fades, compound clips, speed effects are there but nothing regarding audio levels, effects, position, scale or any animated properties gets carried over

Hopefully they will start adding stuff in the next release due "in early 2012".

I considered also writing an FCPX - REDCINE-X roundtrip app using FCPxml but what currently limited things for me is the inability to send a multi track project into RCX pro using .lua
Any chance this might be coming soon ?
 
It's easier for me to add support for FCPX XML than to update the Lua at this point :) But regardless both things are on the list to be tackled in due time.
