  • Thats excellent news! Thanks very much for the quick response. You guys are awesome. I’m assuming Mountain Lion will still run the CS6 Suite properly?

    Has anyone tested with Mountain Lion that was having issues with Mercury Playback on their Macbook Pro (late 2011 model)? I’m likely going to upgrade in the next few days, but I’m curious if anyone else here is already running it?

  • Hey, wanted to see if you have heard anything or had any more luck with the Open CL GPU issue. I’m been having the exact same issues. CS6 runs like a champ for about 45 minutes on average then I need to restart the program or switch to Software Only. Definitely very useable, but I’d love to stay in GPU Accelerated.

    An word on an upcoming patch or dot release?

    I exported and encoded an RGB QT reference instead of a 601/701 one, and now the colors and black levels are all correct. I did this because I couldn’t lower the black of the mask in avid any further, it was dropped all the way.

    On that same subject, does this mean that I should send RGB levels out to encode in Sorenson Squeeze, and not 601/701?

    Thanks for the response! I’m going to try that right now and see what I get. I didn’t realize I could go above or below safe with DVDs.

  • The original video was pretty low, so there’s some heave color correction on it. But you can see that the mask levels are indeed at 0 IRE so why are the levels different in the DVD player created letterbox.

  • The levels are spot on in the waveform in Media Composer. And I have been rendering off of a QT reference files with the correct color space. Is there a way in Encore to crop the 16:9 source to 1.35 so it doesn’t have to have my mask on it yet still display correctly? It seems as if the black the DVD players are adding as a letterbox are below legal black levels. Almost as if it’s not sending signal to those areas.

    Here is the video in Avid with the corresponding waveform:
