    Hi,

    Hi, Use a LUT-generator.

    For Log-to-lin use the Arri-Lut from the 3D-LUT drop menu.
    For 5D/7D a LUT will not help you in my experience. You can install Philip Blooms Technicolor file and use those settings before you shoot. That will give you a better range.

    Well, it’s not Philip Bloom’s, but Technicolor’s:)

    I think the proxys are only available if you are working from a file sequence based source. (DPX) I don’t think they are created if you are working with RED or quicktimes.

    As far as I know, proxy mode works no matter what kind of material you’re on. At least for QuickTime.

    Thanks for the reply….

    Where can i find the arri luts is it preloaded in Resolve itself or we have to but from 3rd party.

    does anyone have 3D luts for kodak stocks if possible please share…

    and my another doubt i have 24GB ram and Quadra 4000 but why i cant play the dpx proxy in real time… resolve using only 2GB of my ram and if i play the red 1920X1080 footage for a preview a pop up come saying out of memory and resolve quits. how can i solve this issues

    please reply

    Thanks

    I need some clarity on the proxy system…I’m sure i asked this question a while ago, but I can’t find it or the answer. I did find the following response from another question about the proxy manager.

    Perhaps i’m misunderstanding what the proxy manager is/does vs creating real time proxy’s?

    Here is the response from a while ago about the Proxy manager.

    Your question mirrors one that was just responded to on the davincihelp mail list. Here is the answer that was provided there:

    The proxy manager is supported for file based formats, like DPX, CIN, etc. It’s not supported for clip formats like Red, Quicktime, etc.

    please take a look at the mac config guide about storage (uncompressed formats as a DPX sequence needs a fast raid setup):

    Sorry if I was unclear. I was talking about real-time proxies. Less resolution, but works like a charm.
