  • Adding video to stand alone engine RED?

    Posted by Mike Hinkel on May 31, 2011 at 7:06 pm

    When trying to use the stand alone engine I cannot add video. Everything I try tells me I have unsupported media types. Do I have to convert from .MOV to .mov? Even when using the Vegas host I have this problem. What is up with that?

    Same here. I haven’t found a mov file that the stand-alone RED 5 will import and I was using QuickTime Photo-JPEG files which is pretty standard stuff. I’m not sure what codecs it accepts.

    I have no problem using the same files with the RED 5 plug-in in Vegas Pro 10. So those mov files should work fine when in Vegas pro (as long as Vegas can read them).

    I am hoping the powers that be know what the situation is. I really can’t do anything more than transitions. Not that I am fluent in Boris to start.

    Are you saying that RED 5 is not working as a Video FX for you in Vegas Pro?

    I can put extra effect to a transition from the filters tab if that is what you are asking. I am sure there is more it will do in Vegas. Just a matter of getting there. I won’t be able to do much with the rest of the trial. I was called away for the rest of the time I have.

    No, I was talking about adding Boris RED as an FX like Chroma Key. I was just trying to understand your comment that you can only do transitions. Boris RED is a whole lot more than just transitions.
