Hey Pedro, Danke!
thanks for the heads up, thought i might have been missing something but all the news was about the new release on the 15th so I assumed…
how silly of me, after dealing with Red for the last years i guess i should have suspected 😉
Guess I will just have to wait a bit, thanks again-Brian

very excited about this release!
I reluctantly upgraded my macpro to Mountain Lion just to be able to use the new speedgrade CC.
so far so good but neither my Speedgrade CC or Premiere CC offer the Direkt Link feature shown in the videos and the little Premiere Icon show in Speedgrade CC is not there either?

I am based in Germany so i have the German version of these programs, could it be that Direkt Link is not implemented in German yet?

If so can i change language to activate the features?

appreciate any help here – I would love to get grading with Direkt Link!

OK – thanks for the quick response and explanation.
Makes lots of sense for rendering and previews, but because the general performance seemed OK as far as previews and playing r3ds in real time if felt like such an everyday task as searching and saving the project should be no big deal for CS6 to deal with.

I will give it a try.

It felt like it was helping a bit but then then when I switched to another project saving the project was taking forever, intermittently it took about 15 min just to save, but sometimes went back to normal normal timeframe of around 15-20sec to save. Searching for clip names is taking forever again, at least 3-4 minutes to find a clip by name.

I have 12 GB Ram, shouldn’t that be enough for these functions? I have over 10,000 clips in the project but in OS finder , i get results in just one or two seconds.

Is there some kind of limit to the number of clips in Premiere where the whole project starts to bog down?

thanks for any input – Brian

[Brian Mcclatchy]

but minutes as compared to seconds in finder? that seems crazy

[Brian Mcclatchy]

is there a way currently to make this work with Epic R3D files without quicktime. I am working on projects with so many TBs of data that there is no way that I can generate proxy files from all the footage, Premiere Pro works fine with the original footage without transcoding but I am lookng for a better archive solution.

[Brian Mcclatchy]

just figured out that I was searching for “!” an exclamation mark that i tend to use as a simple way to mark and find good clips in varying degrees, In Final Cut i just would add from ! to !!!! to the description and the results came up in any search.

lt seems that Premiere Pro does not recognize the lowly ! in its search results, nor any of the other signs created by Shift + a number key.

Does anyone else have a better solution to marking good clips when logging? I know there is the Good checkbox but that is relatively limited and needs an extra click. Also there is the color label route but there is only one color option slot that is not already used by Adobe for standard colors.

any thoughts on this? I am looking for a practical way to log tons of Red Epic footage in the field and in various locations by assistents to prepare footage for the final edit.

thanks –
