Adding RED files to the Browser takes ages
-
You can change between Half/Full res decode anytime. In 7.0, it would just not update the resolution shown in the media pool.

Cool, thanks Rohit

OK So I let DaVinci do its work over night. I don’t know how long it took, but it’s all in the media pool. However.. What I’m seeing now is that the offline and the timeline I have (from FCP XML) don’t match. It’s totally different shots in the timeline compared to the offline.
DOH! That’s a first actually…
Also, a lot of the R3D clips are black in Resolve. Too bad the deadline is today. I’ll have to use the prores proxy they used for editing on this one. Got no time to fix this atm.

I bet there is timecode problem as red files have edge code and timecode.
If they are mixed in some reason then you get black.
I wonder how did you make the edit in fcp ?
I have had this with red material and roundtriping with fcp in the beginning of red days.

I didn’t do the editing. Some editor transcoded it all to Prores 422 HQ. Luckily in HD, so I can work on those. Not ideal for some of the shots, but it’ll have to do this time.
Never had that problem before, that clips appear black in the timeline. Any heads up on that issue ?
-
Compare red timecode and prorez timecode and there should be your reason?
Other way would be to reconnect before grading in fcp to red p files.
If all locks well it should work nicely in davinci.
Look on next post on xml and mov.
Maybe this will help you ?

Funny thing is, they have renamed all their proxies to things like “Library wide shot”, “Library tilt up”, “Interview Jason” etc.. Doing relinking to all these shots in FCP will be a major pita.
Some times I wish I could hire someone to do conform for me.. 🙂

There you go nice reel names 🙂
I usually edit with p or m proxy files and have no problems with relinking.
But you have nice comments on filenames then ?

The file names are as mentioned previously. There’s no easy way to right-click the clip in the timeline, Re-connect, and find the correct folder and clip. Unless I overlook something.
What I’m saying is, they used FCP to transcode the R3D files, from names such as A0032421342whatever-it-is to “Interview Jason”.
Doing a simple “Search” or “Locate” won’t help me much since I don’t see what the original filename was.

i see the only option would be to see if eny of the timecode matches i.e edgecode or regular tc.
Then if resolve would look for that code and relink like that.
I used to use app called ruber monkey. it had the possibility to choose what timecode was to be used
and made new xml out of fcp’s xml.Not sure but maybe it could work.
