[Andrew Mehta] “Floh – although most effects are included in Red anyway – if you did buy filters you were lacking, could you actually use them in Red?”

Media 100 is a 32 bit app. Red 5.1, wich is bundled with Media 100, is 32 bit as well. As long as the filters are 32 bit also, they should work inside Red inside Media 100. Unfortunately most filters are 64 bit these days. Best is to ask the filters manufacturer if they will work in a 32bit version of Red.

[Floh Peters]

Most of the Continuum Complete effects are included in Red anyway, which is a part of Media 100. You cannot use the plugins directly inside Media 100, though, only via Red inside Media 100

Do you actually want to deinterlace your footage? You would lose half of your resolution by doing this… or what is the goal you want to achieve?

Joseph,

there are 2 possible issues here: either your “program” document got corrupted, or one of your media files (e.g. a render file or a video clip) is corrupted.
If possible, try opening the program file with your media drives unmounted. Does it open?
If not, there should be (as long as you did not turn it off) a backup folder within your “Documents” folder inside your users folder. Try to find a backup of your program there that works.
If your program opens without your media files, then there is a bad file within one of your media folders. We can do some troubleshooting with these if your program opens without the media files.

And btw., if you can get help from Dave M. you definitely should take it. He knows what he is doing 😉

[Floh Peters]

Yeah, you can do that.

In the “Media” menu, you have “Render…” or CMD-Shift-R. There a dialog will come up where you can select what to render.

Hi Ben,
yeah, that one is a strange bug. I´ve run into it a couple of times; as far as I can tell it is somehow related to an audio clip in your multi clip setup. What kind of material are you grouping and how do you sync it?
Usually this does not happen, at least not with group clips that are based on the same source TC.

[Jack Shepard] “et me ask you this then just to clarify. My object is to scale the images while they are 4k as the image would deteriorate if I scaled them while in 1080p. “

This is pretty easy. Do it in Motion Editor, which is actually built to conform and rescale your clips from different resolutions. Place your 4k clips in a HD timeline, and rescale in Motion Editor as needed to get the right framing of your shots

[Floh Peters]

Btw, if you apply Boris Red to a 4k clip in a HD timeline it will NOT have access to the original 4k material. The Motion editor will be applied first to downscale it to HD before the footage will get handed over to Red. You can access the clips via Boris Bin Browser or by directly importing them from the drive into Red, though.

[Floh Peters]

You should be able to see in the Bin list view the resolution of your clips. If you have them in a natively supported codec (ProRes, Red,…) they should fast-import as native files in 4k and should be downscaled by motion editor when being placed in a HD timeline.

[Floh Peters]

So your multiclip plays back in a timeline, and you are able to switch to cameras, but the switches are not “recorded”? Do you switch to a different angle, or do you cut? Switching means to switch the whole area (from and to existing take marks, or if none exist for the whole clip), while cutting means that new take marks get created…
