Fantastic updates Peter. Shame I can’t be there to see it running.

Not only have you guys listened you’ve excelled on delivery.

Guessing V9 is completely compatible with your new camera?

Your edl/xml will only work with matching t/c and/or reel number.

If there is matching t/c what you need to do is split and add in the browse page to cut it up correctly from a single file. Or scene detect and disregard the edl/xml if there is no associated t/c or reel info.

Yeah has happened for me on a variety of formats on both Linux and Mac versions since V7.1.

Some times stopping the render and flicking the play still on and off fixes it, but not always.

Once it happens a few times you get a bit more comfortable with it as the render is always fine!

Could be that the AIFF has not been exported correctly. The manual says –

A single 16 or 24-bit/48KHz AIFF or WAV file on an accessible volume.

If its not that format it won’t load.

I also extract the audio to a separate folder and keep them all in the same place away from the media to keep it all clean.

Hey Teo, Sony supplied someone with a probe to calibrate our OLED when they set it up.

The monitor itself does not have the software installed but there are a range of test patterns in the remote (BKM16R) that we were able to display for probing.

Apparently Sony Precallibrate the monitors in the factory and to be honest it needed only a couple of minor tweaks.

I intend to use Sony’s man for any upcoming tweaks and will ask him to have a look every three months or so. Rather leave it to the professionals as I have little experience on the calibration side of things!

Hey Dane, when discussing the difference between the monitors with the Sony rep he told me the Panel is the exact same type and its the drivers behind it that are different.
So guessing the panels are able to display 12bit if you have the higher model and scales it down to 10bit for the cheaper version.
Haven’t used or seen the Flanders but there seems to be a lot of good press around it.

I have been running the BVM in my grading suite for just over a month (along with the Panny VT20 client monitor) and were the first in Australia to have one, ordered it way back in April after seeing a demo alongside a CRT and LCD (both Sony).

Haven’t had a single person not mention the quality of the picture. It really is incredible!

Viewing angle seems slightly better than the LCD but not as good as a CRT, but the quality of the image definitely surpasses the CRT.

The difference between the BVM and the PVM is 12vs10bit and although the panel is the same some of the electronics driving it are slightly different apparently?

I’d recommend the BVM if you can afford it for grading and the PVM for your VFX suites. But the price difference is massive!
