  • 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 :)

REDray Player...

Wow this is good news. I take it RED has a solution to get content to the consumer in other mediums other than disk? Such as a RED cloud or store? I'm hoping distribution companies are already signing up!

I had this weird hope that when Deanan left he was doing so with Jim's blessing to set up such an apparatus for the coming Red Player and Projector to have compatible content.

This one is an interesting one indeed, but I guess I wan't worry too much about it, as it will ship with my RED LASER PROJECTOR... ;)

Just once I want to get one before you! :-)
 
Finally, this is the game changer.
And 120fps 4K encapsulated in Red projector, uh oh what a dream machine :001_tt1: :drool: :drool:


What bitrate it has in 4K 120fps?
 
So its 2K for each eye in 3D?
 
This is incredible. I plan on owning a RED someday, as soon as I can afford it. Too bad they don't get out educational discounts...
 
I'm pretty sure Jim said that what we saw today already was 2K in each eye and that they're hoping in just a couple days to have the dual streams of 4K going from the projector. CRAZY!

Warning on Red projector :smiley:

"Dangerous thinking, delusional deadlines, grandiose goals, obsessive-compulsive and continual changes, endless electronics, equation-bending deviant logic, fluorescent nights, hypersensitive components and personalities.

Prior to being injected into the main accelerator, the particles are prepared by a series of systems that successively increase their energy. The first system is the linear particle accelerator generation 50-MEV protons, which feeds the proton syndication booster. There the protons are accelerated to 1.4 GEV and injected into the proton synchrotron, where they are accelerated to 25 GEV. Finally the super proton synchrotron is used to further increase their energy to 450 GEV before they are last injected into the main housing. Here the proton bunches are accumulated, accelerated to their peak 7-TEV energy, and finally circulated while photon collisions occur at the four intersection points within the human eye, thus creating images in the brain the world has never before experienced."

Crazy indeed, can't wait to see it on my own eyes. :emote_popcorn:
 
It's great to have a new distribution Codec, and even better when it's low bitrate. But how does it compare to DCP?
I was very sceptical when R3D was announced and the bitrate RED was proclaiming. And the result was/is amaizing. Hope the new codec has the same magic in it.
Does the Projector have any connectors for use with any standard DCP servers?

Yes it is the intent to be able to connect a standard DCP server as an input to the REDray laser projector.

However as the RED RAY codec is so efficient, in our opinion you'll get comparable image quality and significantly better specs - meaning frame size x max frame rate x stereo presentation - from the internal REDray player.
 
Is the redray system going to be available seperately from the laser, and will there be a cheap player only version and software encode for presentation systems, or internet viewing? I'm talking low budget here, and the opportunity as a consumer viewing platform. I'm interested in it's use in kiosk applications.
Click to expand...

Absolutely. That's the REDray Player product as opposed to the REDray Projector product.

Kiosk applications are a perfect fit for that.

It all sound fantastic... Quick Q is it possible to sync multiple players together?
Click to expand...


Yes you can also do that.

Each REDray player can drive up to four 1080p displays in perfect sync, and because it can accept a standard tri-level sync signal, multiple players can be synced together for large scale video walls.
 
When it will be available for Purchase?

When it will be available for Purchase?

2012 i get it. That so cool. But which month? :) Can't wait!!

Now for the big questions, how does it work, how does the compression work? I'm interested in comparing it to my decade old technology ideas.

Thanks Stuart, and thanks Red.

Jimmie crickets, I hear crickets. :-)
 
Stuart English said:
Yes it supports downscaling from 4K to 1080p.

Or it can be used to deliver and play back four synchronized 1080p signals for digital signage applications.

A related question, just because I haven't seen it asked yet.....

How about content going the other way? Will it upscale 1080p to 4k? Or will we need something else for upscaling normal TV/blu-ray movie input?

On the REDray Projector yes it can do that It has an HDMI input for that specific purpose.

Also both REDray Player and REDray projector can decode and then upscale 720p and 1080p .MP4 videos to 4K.

(i.e. dual codec support, for legacy compression format compatibly)
 
BTW... while we can upscale 1080P content to play, it looks just like you would expect.
