very lengthy save time. ..

[jake blackstone] “Look into Baselight Editions. It does pretty much all you had mentioned and does it very well I may add.”

Unfortunately it’s not available as a plug-in to any application I use.

I was surprised to find out there’s a version for Nuke. What does it do? Does it add a timeline to Nuke and real time playback? Because applications like Nuke or Eyeon Fusion need no help in color grading. They are already more powerful than any dedicated color grading software out there. They are just not laid out for that and have no real time playback. But they have all the tools to be a finishing tool apart from that. So I wonder what Baselight Editions add to the mix. Unfortunately their website doesn’t have a comparison between the full version and Editions.

Under “General Options”, do you have “Save Timeline Thumbnails” unchecked?

[Ronen Pestes]

Eric,
I do have thumbnails unchecked.

Jack and Michael, please open another post for your conversation.
Besides the fact that is creating confusion if someone is trying to answer my question. If someone is going to learn from your dialogue or search for a solution one might not be able to, since it is in the wrong conversation,.

I have installed 9.1.1. Save times are lightning fast.
I can now have 2-3 episodes on the same project and all the still frames that I need.
problem solved

Just been doing some playing around here on a 1,100 cut show.

I am using an AAF of a consol of the sequence, rather than an export & EDL. The show has over a hundred push and swipe transitions, as well as several picture in pictures, and I’d rather not have to reconstruct them all!

Save time for the whole project, no grades yet, is about 35 seconds. The save time seems to be considerably more affected by the number of files in the media pool, if I remove everything from the media pool it takes about 10 seconds to save. Ronan, I wonder if your “lightning fast” saves are because you are using a notched QT or similar?

As for stills, I auto-grabbed a still of every clip in the sequence, and the save time went up to 1’40” !

A sequence/project of the first 20 mins, importing only relevant media takes about 11seconds to save which is bearable. Coming from Color, splitting the sequence up into three separate projects is no big deal for me, it’s just a bit of a shame!

I am on 9.1.1 (lite) on a Windows 7 system with media consolidated to a local drive and the database (currently) on the system drive. Over the weekend I worked on a Resolve 8 (full version) on an OSX system, media and database on an XSAN. Another 1 hour show, I didn’t think to take records, it was probably about 2/3 as many cuts, but I think save times felt considerably faster than 20 seconds.

Does this tie in with other people’s experience? Any tips to speed things up?
