What does the DRX actually do?

[Visceral_IvaN]

I have tried to messing around with that setting to no avail. Does anybody know what this actually does in Red Alert!?

Thanks guys,
Ivan

If you have clipped highlights, they can sometimes go a funny colour because generally red or green clips first, and blue last. DRX detects this and fixes it.

Graeme. Will Redcine get the DRX function?

 

[Graeme Nattress]

It's had it since release - just called "highlight".

So that's what it's for!!! I've been sliding that thing thinking it was disabled awaiting a future build... hehe :whistling:

So I'll need to blow some footage first.

Interesting.

Watch the highlights in the histogram in rgb and you can see what's happening.

Does this work on fixing the dreaded "black/pink sun" issue?

This feature works great in Red Alert - tweaking until the channels are align.. But in Redcine it's hard to minitor on the histogram.
