  • detected strange scope behaviour – scopebox via intensitypro & davinci out hdextreme3+

    hi!

    today i tried the scopebox software in conbination with my resolve. just because i do have an older mac with the intensity pro card in it.

    strange thing is:
    if i load in a 100% green test image, the inbuilt RGB-parade scope shows me what i expect:
    0% RED, 100% GREEN, 0% BLUE.

    but if i monitor via scopebox and intensity pro in 8 bit (hdmi in) i do get:
    a few percents RED, 0% GREEN, and a little bit of BLUE.
    (cant give you the exact percentages, only the 8bit values: 20, 0, 10)

    in davinci i use UNSCALED FULL RANGE with the DATA TO VIDEO SCALE standard LUT.

    any ideas?

    does anybody else use ScopeBox?
    can anyone try this with different scopes and tell me the result?

    thanks in advance
    andy

    Hi Andy – If you shoot us an email at dmsupport@divergentmedia.com we can give you a hand tracking that down. We can work on replicating your test setup to see what might be going on.

    I think the intensity is not good for that, you should use sdi card. Otherwise the signal is not accurate.

    yeah… could be the case.

    but then again: hdmi out via hdlink pro extreme 3d+ and hdmi in in intensity pro – it is digital and there shouldnt be a technical difference between sdi and hdmi, am i right?

    Any updates on this? I was about to buy an old G5 just to run Scopebox with my extra Intensity card. If there’s an HDMI/Intensity monitoring issue then I may have to stick with the Resolve internal scopes…
