  • 90 minute long R3D clip doesn’t read

    Posted by Vladimir Kucherov on September 11, 2011 at 1:41 am

    I’m doing work on a one shot feature (fun!) – and as luck would have it there are mystery technical problems. The thing is shot on the Red, so I received the first day’s ~90minute shot and loaded it up into Resolve no problem. This thing was in about 80 R3D parts but Resolve browser displayed part _001 only, yet added the full thing.

    Second day’s shot didn’t work as well. It was still around 80 parts, played in Redcine fine, but Resolve would only import 1/80th of the clip (essentially, one physical .r3d file’s worth of playback). If I rename each part, I can add them separately, but of course this isn’t ideal.

    Has anyone encountered this issue?

    haven’t been in your situation, but I believe RCX can do r3d trimming now. you might abe able to just spit out 50% as one r3d set, and the second half as another r3d set. so you’d only be splitting the shot in half rather than multiple parts. might be the most elegant solution.

    Might even be better to truncate it into 30 minute pieces instead too, Resolve might freak out if it’s too long form. My timeline started going insane when I imported a 2 hour film into one session. it was fine once i broke it up into 20-30 min pieces.
