  CS6 export r3d at lower debayer?

  Posted by John Tissavary on September 6, 2012 at 6:29 pm

  I’m exporting a 12 minute short shot on Scarlet for an offline reference video to aid in conforming in Resolve. For whatever reason CS6 seems to be debayering at full premium no matter what, causing the render to take 1hr 44min. Not really practical for an offline render of a 12 minute piece.

  Soooo, is there a way to force the render to 1/4 or 1/8 debayer ?

  thanks,

  John T.

  What’s the resolution you are exporting to and do you have the use maximum render quality tab checked? I’ve transcoded 1080p prores proxy out of Red Epic files and it took only twice the time of the clip. SD proxies took half.

  Just noticed if I turn off GPU acceleration the 1hr 44min render time drops to 25 minutes. That’s some strange acceleration indeed. Max quality always turned off, btw.

  If I recall, right click one r3d file in your bin > source settings, near the top is debayer quality. Without Premiere open, I think they call it high/medium/low. Setting it for one file should do it for the project… I have a Red Rocket card so I never have the need to change it so I apologize for sounding slightly not sure of myself. It’s been a while.

  What’s your GPU?

  PNY Quadro FX 5800. It’s not technically an approved card, but haven’t had these issues until 6.02 update.

  EDIT: just saw that it is supported in the cuda text file. I think I have an idea of what’s going on – switched to geforce driver to test an issue I was having in Resolve v9, will switch back to quadro driver and report back.
