CS$ RED Plug-in in WinXP

[Todd Kopriva]

> Just wondering if the plug-in will work in WinXP 32bit? Under system requirements it seems to say that 64bit Vista is “highly recommended”. Does that mean it will work in WinXP? My plan is to use Color Finesse inside of CS4 to correct a finished RED edit.

I have the REDCODE importer plug-in working with After Effects CS4 (9.0.2) on a computer here, but I haven’t done any extensive work with it. (My primary computer runs 64-bit OSes.)

Keep in mind that After Effects can’t use as much RAM on a 32-bit OS as it can on a 64-bit OS. Working at high color bit depths with the big frames from the RED is not something that I’d want to do on a 32-bit operating system.

Thanks Todd,

I just don’t want to put any money into Vista at this point since Windows 7 is coming out. I do have Leopard on my MacBook Pro, but I’d need another license for AE and there’s nowhere near the horsepower of my PC, plus it’s a laptop and I don’t want to CC on it.

I’m going to consider trying it anyway with XP32Bit, if I do I’ll post here as to the difficulty of it.

Thanks again,

Thad

I ran the first version of the plugin in 32 bit, so yeah it should work. I’ve since moved onto 64bit Vista though.

I know in premiere with the new version you have access to the metadata, but I don’t remember with AE.
ok, I just checked and yes, AE has access to the metadata also.
