Alf, I can’t immediately explain that. We use similar systems in our lab. Are you using two monitors? Can you contact our support to see if we can solve this problem.

My guess is that you are running it as a plugin to Adobe Premiere where Multiprocessing is controlled internally and not available as a user option. In any case, Blue is 100% OGL render so CPU multiprocessing does not really affect render speed. Sorry if it created any confusion.

Is this in a plugin or in a standalone application? In any case, Blue draws most performance from your graphics card and it’s always enabled. It’s still pretty fast, right?

Boris Blue is not CS5 compatible at this point. That’s why it’s not showing in CS5 applications. I suggest trying BCC 7 filter set, 3D Objects in particular. They provide much of the functions of Boris Blue. Available as a standalone unit at a lower price too.

3D Objects are AE only at this point. No Premiere support, but the rest of the BCC7 filters support Premiere.

Sorry for confusing terms, I agree they should be corrected. I believe in this case the filter is missing the original EPS file that was used when it was initially created. Simply choose this EPS file again via file button (I do not have Avid in front of me at the moment so my terms are loose too). The help pdf should be available via help button. It is possible though that they have been moved from the default location in which case help files will not appear. See if you can find them on your hard drive.

The way host video layers work in RED is, first you have to drop them in the wells in the filter controls panel

then the layer video will appear as Video 2…7 in RED Media popup button. To add a background layer use a 3D Flat Shape track. Hope this helps

This may be a card/driver version issue. I suggest contacting our support at this point

I’m pretty sure the difference is in the driver or nVidia panel setup (dual monitors?). You may want to contact our support team for help. They should be able to figure this out.

Although we are not ready to announce the date, RED 5 is getting very close to the release. If you like to join our beta program feel free to email me at boris@borisfx.com

The issue is not with Windows 7. Your guess is right, you need to use Vegas 32 bit until RED 5 ships. Another option is to use RED standalone. The plugin has to match the app – 32 bit for now, 64 bit in the future.
