The jvc rs is not 2k. Though I’m not sure how much the extra 126 pixels buys you.

Hi Sascha,

Thanks for posting the new improved Standard Candle. I actually had some interesting results.

Our configs are similiar, except you have the Zotac, I’m using the EVGA 580 3GB Classifieds X3 in Cubix.

My Results:

V01 04 blur nodes 24 fps
V02 08 blur nodes 24 fps
V03 16 blur nodes 24 fps
V04 32 blur nodes 24 fps
V05 64 blur nodes 12 fps
V06 01 NR 2 nodes 24 fps
V07 03 NR 2 nodes 17 fps
V08 06 NR 2 nodes 9 fps

So in the Blur nodes I seemed to get a bit more performance on the EVGA than you did. However with NR your Zotac’s beat my GPUs. Very interesting.

They don’t have to match, but as a set they will only work as well as the slowest card. A single 570 will probably outperform two 285s.

Yes the Matte clips now loop. So one clip can be used in track mode through the whole thing. Just add the matte clip without an associated clip selected and it will be added as a matte in the track mode, there you can use as you normally would.

The footage does loop when you do it this way! 🙂

And the exposure change is because this PARTICULAR stock is not neutral. It’s under exposed and so brings down the over all level. Other stock is neutral, but depending on the stock will change response and tonality.

In that case I’m using an under exposed grain clip… so it brings down the overall image.
