Sounds very nice, but at the end it’s very 1984 with big brother controlling everything you do, the weird thing is that they present it like “freedom” while in reality you’ll become caged in their ecosystem, kinda like The Matrix, we’re now pumping them power.
To be honest, I don’t like the whole cloud concept overall.

[Andrew Kimery] “Adobe alerts you to when updates are available but it’s up to you to download and install them. There’s no auto updating.”
I wasn’t referring to that, I currently have a cloud subscription that I’m stopping before I hit the new renewal rate, so I’m a bit familiar with how it works, but what I noticed is that nobody addressed the fact that let’s say if a student got an old computer and wants to download photoshop or after effects to learn it, he’s going to be downloading the newest version and not an old one he can learn, thus forcing the customers to always be updating your hardware. ANd also let’s say you upgraded to a new version and realized that you require a new video card, can you roll back?

Also what about hardware? Being constantly tied up to a subscription model will make you have newer versions, which demands newer hardware, and it doesn’t seem they offer version history for download.

Actually I had clients bringing me DCPs that were done with CineAsset in other facilities and didn’t play as well, had to extract it and re-encode, I guess you were lucky.
I think most of the problems are places with older servers, those sometimes are tricky, but most of the times I encounter problems were a re-wrapping was needed and the same disc was used to put the new DCP, now I just put a brand new disc and replace it, works all the time. -
True, easyDCP playback doesn’t guarantee a thing. And then when the client calls all freaking out that their DCP cannot play at the festival, good luck make them understand is not your fault…
I hope that someone comes with some software that can test a DCP package and tell you which servers it passes, that would be gold. -
I guess they call it online editing because most likely it’s going to be heavily optimized for the Blakmagic camera, so no ned to transcode, but one thing I think we’re going to get for sure, is plugin support.

I’m not sure, but I think as long as the grading in Red Cine X is just primaries, you can export a CDL that Resolve can read, as pretty much any grading software now.
I would give that workflow a try.

The only problem that I see with Lightworks now is that being open source, their update cycle is incredibly slow, they’ve been announcing a Lightworks for Mac for years and who knows when it’s going to be ready, I think they could have a serious impact, but they probably need to get out of open source mode.

Yeah! I remember those days, I didn’t believe him one bit though…
