I bar please in Ultrascope. Or Resolve. BMD, come on, how hard it this?
Bueller? Anyone?
Blackmagic, why can you make a 2.5K camera for $3K, totally redesign the Resolve interface (for free) but can’t put one little line on the Ultrascope display??
Seriously, I love your stuff. I’m a big fan. But it would honestly be very helpful to have this feature.
Any others who would like to see this please say so.

+1 on this. There are lots of things to be desired on the Ultrascopes. I sold a set of Omniteks because I was using about 10% of what they could do and while I haven’t been hugely disappointed the omniteks were obviously better. I really like the ultrascopes but I bar, flexible views, true gamut scope (i.e tek diamond/harris eye) are some of my requests.

I sound like a freaking spokesnerd but… Scopebox.

Juan,
I’ve looked at Scopebox and it may be a solution, but I already have an Ultrascope and computer set up to run it.
SEEMS like all you’d have to do to add an I bar to Ultrascope is literally modify the vectorscope display graphic file to include an I bar line.

That’s true. You might be able to do it yourself. I’m sure there’s a png file somewhere in the app package. The scopebox suggestion was more for Robbie with his additional request. Most of which are elegantly handled in scopebox.
Given that the ultrascope GUI is fixed, you could even just put a thin piece of tape on the display screen. 😉
Personally never use an I bar anyway so I don’t really miss it, but it wouldn’t get in my way if they added it.

Would n´t Scope Box make Da Vinci run slower, as it is using the same GPU? The same as when using the built in scopes from Davinci.
Sorry for my ignorance, but what is the I BAR?THE PANIC PROPAGANDA

You wouldn’t & couldn’t run either scopebox or ultrastudio on the same host system as resolve. You have to run either of them on their own box.
The I bar, is a line drawn over a vectorscope between the red and yellow vectors meant to indicate where human skin should fall.

+1 for I bar and robbies requests!

Who’s human skin?
Mine? Yours? Barack Obamas? Dolly Partons?Seems a bit silly to me to need one!

Whatever flavor your, mine or others skin tones are, they magically happen to appear along the same line. I don’t see anything silly about it. It’s there for guidance, to help us make better decisions.
Of course skin tones won’t be pitch perfect along that line all the time after the grade is set. Skin tones are hardly ever the same in two different lighting conditions anyway.
So if you don’t like the idea of that line, I bet BMD would be kind enough to make a button for you to switch it on or off.
