That’s the problem because grading on the GUI is not the best solution. It’s strange for a hardware manufacture to create a software which has this problem on their cards.

hello,
I think so… but it could be good if in “stop mode” this latency could be reduced. In playback mode, no problem if I have a latency. I just want that my manipulations (in stop mode) appears in realtime.

Hello,
No, no. I’m grading in 10bit then it’s 64-940 (like 16-235 in 8bit). And my DCPs are good 😉
The flow is this one if I’m not wrong :
rushes in 10bit 0-1023 -> DaVinci legally scaled -> monitoring in 64-940 Rec709 -> color grading -> output DPX in 0-1023
About the DCI cinema, yes I’m lucky to have a D-cinema to test it it’s not in 7.1, only in 5.1… but enough for what I did until now. In Switzerland the State is helping movie Theater to pay the D-cinema installation. It’s about 130’000 dollars per cinema, and State is giving about 100’000 per cinema.

Hello,
Thank’s for this very good answer.
easyDCP is.. incredible but a little bit expensive. https://www.easy-dcp.de
It’s a german software which generate DCP from A to Z with a very simple interface. The flow is this one :
DPX in Rec709 -> easyDCP (converts from Rec709 to xyz) -> add sound -> add subtitle -> Generate
it take about twice the time to creat a DCP (a short of 30min is about 1hour to generate the DCP)…
You can work with 2K or 4K DPX, 2D or 3D. InteropMXF (24fps – 48fps) or smpte (24-25-30-60).
To playing back… that’s the problem. You can buy an other software easyDCP player but it’s expensive… I prefer to go to a D-Cinema to check it.

Hello,
Yes I have the same delay, it’s not from the projector. It really from the software to the blackmagic HdExtrem3.

April 30, 2011 at 7:17 am in reply to: Signifcant Grading Latency On the Video Out MonitorHello,
Same problem for a long time… since the first version 7.0.
I have about 10 frames latency between the GUI and the Projector. It’s not a problem for the play, but it’s a problem for the grading, because when I grade, I see the result about 1/3 second to late. But from the begining I didn’t receive any precise answer about that.
My configuration :
MacPro 8 x 2.26
16 GigaRam
Decklink Hd Extrem 3
Hdlink displayport
GT120 PCIe Slot-2

I tried with :
nothing particular in INPUT tab.
OUTPUT tab : Adaptive + Local and I used “Use top field” (I hesitated between blend and this one… but I had problem with few rushes shot with a fast shutter, blend gave me two very precise images per frame. And it wasn’t good).
You can put several rushes in INPUT tab, and it does a batch transformation like compressor with droplet.

Hello,
thank’s for your message.
The problem with this project is that it’s for DCP and 35mm print… Then I have to be sure of the quality.
I found a freeware very good, with good reputation : JES Deinterlacer
it goes very fast, and the quality seems good to me… good thing, you can even export in DXP.
All the best

Hello,
thank’s for you opinion. But how do you desinterlace in Color ? Is it an adaptive desinterlace (only on moving part of an image) ?

I’m a little bit worried about that. With two nodes you can do a lot of things, don’t forget that the original color grading on 35mm was made with one “node” only.
