I had a triangle too (not exactly the same as yours, but close). It went off when I put my cheap bnc cables to the trash and bought expensive ones.

what I do is make a group of them, then do the adjustment.
Problem is when I want to make an individual ajdustment, I have to take the clip off the group first.Michael Cinquin

Hello Mikhail
yes it did happen to me. I found the problem was not with the DaVinci, it was with the card itself : no app could output video to the Decklink, not even Final Cut or Color. It’s just DaVinci behavior to freeze when it can’t output the video.
The problem did not appear after installing version 7.9.4 of the drivers AND installing a sync generator. Don’t know which was the most important.
friendly greetings !
Michael

I have 40 WD10EADS in different Raid enclosures running here, and they run great.
If I was to rebuild my Raids from scratch and money was not so tight as it was when I first started, I would go for the Raid Edition, as you take less chance.

The wave with full customization can be very productive. It will still make a plastic noise, it won’t make client say waouh, but it will make you work very fast. It will be very professional.
It’s true that for the time being all the clicks it takes for say just to disable a node when not in the good menu is a bit funny.

Rohit, I believe you might be wrong.
I just downsized an HD quicktime to SD with the DaVinci. The HD quicktime has a test pattern on it, with 75% and 100% color patches.
In SD, the color patches are still perfect 75% and 100%. I believe this shows no transformation matrix has been applied.Michael Cinquin

Here are my two cents :
– I think it’s a good idea to give a good thought about the 601 vs 709 color space. The color changes are not wild, but quite visible for a colorist
– from my tests FCP assumes colors are 601 when a quicktime is SD and 709 when HD
– Nuke with its color space node can do the conversion
– Steve Shaw from Light Illusion can probably build the LUT you’re after for 100€ (if he can’t, I could, contact me off site)
– but the only monitors that have 601 primaries are the old CRTs. I believe that today a DVD is much more likely to be watched on a 709 or srgb monitor than on one of these (and the srgb primaries are equal to the rec 709 primaries).
