Thanks again Bob.
Could I use my boot SSD for cache or I shouldn’t do that?

Thanks Neil for your input.
You’re right 4K DPX is not common right now, but 2K DPX has been common so I’m just trying to think ahead.

Thanks for the precisions concerning the speeds.
Even though the data rate can be as low as 150 MB/s, I always assumed it actually required the storage to be faster than that because of all the processing being done. But I guess it doesn’t work that way?

You’re so right.
I’m trying to figure out how much storage space I would need for caching and rendering? How does Resolve behave? Will it keep its cache for a session or for an entire project?

I haven’t really gotten into the new cache feature in Resolve 11/12.

Hi Bob thanks for your answer!

I use AJA system Test all the time but for some reason DataCalc had escaped me until now. thanks!
10-bit 4K DPX is around 850 MB/s right? You don’t think an array like mine would be borderline?

And then what about rendering and caching? Would a faster array improve the performance of these tasks in any way ?
I would definitely prefer to keep the drives count as low as possible to minimize the risks but I’d be ready to do a larger if I would get improved speed and performance.

Thanks!

I had forgotten to thank you for your last post Timo.

I appreciate it and hopefully this thread can help others as well.

Depends on who you ask… 😉
Apprently this is a good starting point, but not a true reference monitor.

Depends also with what hardware you use it with.
I’ve seen post houses using those types of monitors but with a $8000 Davio box.

Hi Timo,
Yes when I said a scope I meant probe/colorimeter, sorry for the confusion.
The HDlink would have served as a cheap LUT-generator like you mentioned at the end of your post. But I now see I wouldn’t need an HDlink at all since you can run the LUT within Resolve as a display LUT.

Why would I need Lightspace to create that LUT though? Couldn’t I do that with Calman or other software?
Perhaps you mentioned Lightspace because it will be the more accurate solution?

re: chad. yes I’m exploring all these options. thanks.

Anybody using something like lightspace to generate a 3D LUT and load this in Resolve as a display LUT?
Then you wouldn’t need a Davio or HDlink.

BTW, interesting thread that must have pissed a lot of people 😉
I just didn’t get how you were able to make this work with an Intensity not being rec709.

[Robert Ruffo] “You can use an Intensity Pro card – since you won’t be bending the signal”

But the Intensity color space output is YUV 422, not REC709.
