With all of the breathless hype about 4K and 8K, it’s important to separate fact from fiction, real-world applications from marketing. This is a must-see presentation on resolution for anyone working in the industry today:

If they can make Team Projects actually work as advertised, that will be a huge benefit in my workplace. The beta was promising, but ultimately extremely frustrating as it quickly fell over during our trials.

[Bret Hampton] “I would think almost no one here has a calibrated BROADCAST monitor. If you did you’d understand network/cable delivery standards and what video should look like.”
Ditto for using/understanding video scopes. Scopes can tell you as much as or more about an image than your eyes. I’m amazed how many editors can’t read or won’t use scopes.

[Jeremy Garchow] “I was seriously hoping for combination microwave slash(/) convection oven.”
You realize, of course, that it will be able to spy on you… Therefore, it will actually be a microwave-slash-convection oven-slash surveillance device.

[Dave LaRonde] “I think you might have to use a workaround — reverse the motion in a different application & re-import.”
Thats basically what I’ve been doing, minus AE. I just export the reversed clip from Premiere as a self-contained file, re-import, edit back into the sequence, then right-click on the clip and reverse the field dominance. It’s tedious, but it works.
I filed a bug report on this yesterday. Perhaps we’ll see a fix in a coming point release…

[Dave LaRonde] “I consider it to be the price one pays for not removing 3:2 pulldown.”
UPDATE:
My apologies, the bug is not present on clips containing 3:2 pulldown. The bug appears when reversing a native 24p (23.98) clip in a 1080i60 sequence.
Ordinarily, Premiere Pro correctly adds 3:2 pulldown to 24p clips added to a 1080i60 sequence. However, reversing a 24p clip in a 1080i60 sequence results in reverse field dominance on the interlaced frames of the 3:2 pulldown being applied to the clip.

[Tero Ahlfors] “Do you have another GPU you can test? That one is ancient and doesn’t have enough VRAM for Resolve (if it is the 512 MB one).”
The 5770 has 1GB VRAM. I don’t have a better GPU that I can swap for testing purposes, so I guess I’ll just have to live with it. It’s not a big deal for grading, but for anything that requires realtime playback, I’ll just have to switch off the broadcast output or use a different app.
-
The footage and the broadcast output settings are the same – 1080i 59.94. The card is properly configured in the Blackmagic Desktop Video Setup utility.
Again, the Mini Monitor card performs perfectly in other applications. It’s only within Resolve that I am unable to achieve realtime playback.
