Hi, just make sure that on the left, where it says V1, V2 etc. You have clicked on the one you want to cut i.e: if the clips you mainly want to make cuts on are on v4, make sure that you have clicked on V4 and that it is highlighted. If you clicked on more than one V, then it will cut through the footage on that layer too.

Hope that helps

HI,

I thibk Ive figured it out. Confirmation from someone would be great.

Decklink HD 3D extreme, which I already have, via HD-sdi into the HDLINK box.
From HDLINK via DISPLAY PORT into Dreamcolor should give us 10 bit, RIGHT!???

I mean that is right, isnt…? Im going crazy…

Hi Sascha,

Thank you for your answer. I didnt understand something… let me explain

I already have a Dream Color and the Decklink HD 3D extreme. It is my understanding that even though I am getting the image and Resolve works on the monitor I cant swith away from the FULL color profile, so that is not good

Next step is getting a HDlink which will give me the RGB signal. or something like the AJA HDP2… not sure which is best for my needs but I thought keeping it all with Black Magic made sense, and I think is cheaper.

I would connect via HDMI into the Dream color, which I thought was 10 bit. Where am I losing/ changing to 8 bit? on the website it says that Decklink is 444 10-bit

Thank you for all you help, I hope what I wrote is not too obvious, it is just that this whole set up is complicated when starting out.

cheers

From what you are telling me I wont be getting a 10 bit signal this way

[David Garcia]

That makes a lot of sense.

However, for the time being, is the color shown on the display less accurate for being interlace? Is it going to be so wrong by using the FULL setting?

I am only using DSLR footage at the moment which is not 10bit.

Next month I will be using Red in which case I can understand the need to upgrade and get the HD link pro and… I guess the calibration kit to complete the set up

Thanks for your help

Black Magic has anwsered my email. They say that as long as the colors look ok it should be working without using the HDlink pro

The card will directly output from the timeline, so there is no OS GUI or other processing going on. The card is directly outputting from the timeline, so this will be a true representation. The only thing that will need to be checked is the colour calibration of the monitor. Please refer to your monitor’s manual to do this.

The only thing that I noticed is that Im not able to select a different color space in the monitor but I can only set it up as FULL

Hi Christian,

Thanks a lot for your reply.

I am connecting Dreamcolor via HDMI directly from the HD extreme 3D card.

Da VInci is recognizing the monitor and showing me the image, which seems good.
I just dont know if it is an accurate representation or not.
Also with this connection the monitors color space can only be set on FULL.
