Now that I’ve relinked it all I can State definitively that the 2016 MBP does NOT play back an 8×8 grid of 8k Red Raw footage. WTH? Not even in better performance mode. What a piece of junk! 😛

Nope. It works! A bit of a pain to open all those folders and move out the movs, but when you relink and point to the directory for the r3d files, it links them perfectly, spans and all. The problem before was choosing the first of the span caused problems, and choosing the folder choose the mov.

But, when I relink i found that the media is now zoomed way in, even though it’s set to fit. I just reselect fit and it pops into place. Rebooting might have fixed.

PS – little known fact. If FCPX is open and running, you can move the media in the finder and it will keep track. So if you want to move the movs to another folder, do it while FCPX is open and you won’t have to relink them. Some sort of quantum entanglement feature.

So the files shouldn’t be spanned? Some of the files have 4 or 5 4.03gig parts. Short clips, but they shot 8k!

I had to just get our first draft with the 1080p files. Will have to relink later, maybe try the Resolve route.

I wasn’t on set, but I’m guessing the proxies were made in camera as they sit in the same folder with each R3D file on the card structure.

I spoke too soon. It actually appears now that when redline linked the files, it only relinked the mov to the first of the r3d files. So if the mov required the 4 4gig files to be stitched together, it only linked to the first, and then just froze the last frame for the rest of the duration. What a mess.

Next time. Haven’t downloaded latest resolve yet. Good enough for today without the audio thankfully. Thanks for your assistance as always!

Nah the original proxies from the shoot were just 1080p ProResLT with embedded PCM audio.

It was rough edited with the ProRes proxies from the set. Then I exported that as FCPXML and used XtoCC to make it XML. Then imported into RedCine and relinked to the R3Ds and all was well. Of course the audio was now represented as 4 tracks in the RedCine timeline. Then I exported the timeline as XML and used send to X to convert it to FCPXML. Imported to FCPX and the timeline is fine, except the clips are synced clips. Open them up and they’re the R3D clip synced to a wav that doesn’t exist anywhere and never did. It’s like send to X or RedCine just decided to make that part up. There have never been any wav files associated with the project. Try to relink them and it even gives a file path but nothing created any wavs. Weird. I’d prefer it too if it were a timeline with the original R3Ds, not synced clips.

That worked. Except now I have a bunch of unlinked wav files in the browser and of course the audio is offline for all the RED clips in the timeline. Luckily we’re not really using audio this video. But the clips did have dual stereo tracks on the original red files. I’d love to know what went awry there.

Ok, got it to RedCineX. Had to use XtoCC to create a regular XML. Relinked to the R3D files no problem. Now want to export back as FCPXML. Using the export (shallow) function in RedCine only sends back a FCPXML of the clips. There’s no sequence/project when I import to FCPX. What am I missing?
