Direct link to video?

I've made a FCP movie for a professional speaker. I want to get a agent to post his details on their website and this is what they are asking for:
* a standalone link to your demo video
*Do you have a link directly to the video, not embedded in a page and not as a flash file
I have no idea even what they asking for, never mind how to make it.
Can anyone help?

lol I guess I'm totally technically challenged
I only want to do two little things:
1. Place a short demo clip (10 minutes long) on my website
2. Send a stand alone link to a agent
I can't be that difficult.....
I've created a great clip with FCP - now I want to convert it into .swf BUT I don't know how.
Can you help?

  • After effects does not import video when I direct link from premiere pro.  Why not? how do i fix this?

    I wanted to add some motion tracked text elements into a clip of a interview in my premiere pro cc timeline. I left clicked on the clips that i wanted to "replace with after effects composition".. so i clicked it to and it opens a new comp in after effects.. Only there is no video opened in the comp.. Theres nothing there. I cant figure out why it doesnt bring the video in? Its not in my project panel in ae.. and ive tried direct link by left clicking the clip and going through the menu.. Tried closing AE and then doing direct link. Tried opening AE first and then doing it.. Not working no matter how i try it.  Whats the fix?
    Im using all CC products. Premiere is up to date, after effects is not. I will be updating it to see if that fixes the problem. As soon as I do. I will post a comment as to whether it fixed it or not. In the meantime i could use some help!

  • Problem in rendering videos direct linked to speed grade.

    hi
    i'm revanth,i'm facing a problem that all the videos which are direct link to speed grade are not rendering in AME..

    Revanth ...
    Would love to help you. Are you still having this problem, and if so ... I need some info.
    OS/CPU/RAM/GPU/vRAM & specifics on version for the OS and drivers for the GPU. For example, mine looks like this, because knowing it is useful when I need to ask for help, I created a text file on my desktop to simply copy it ...
    -Microsoft Windows 7 Professional 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 7601, Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770K CPU @ 3.50GHz, 3501 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s); Installed Physical Memory (RAM)    16.0 GB.

    -System: 2-disc SSD RAID; Cache Files: Internal SSD; Media Files: 2TB Internal HD; Project Files: 2TB Internal HD; Export Files: 2TB Internal HD
    Anyone with some knowledge of the Adobe Digital Video Apps (DVA's) can look at that and immediately note a few areas that might allow problems but rule out many others. Speeds the whole puzzling process along.
    Next ... workflow. Is working in Sg a new-ish thing for you or do you have some pro experience at it? I don't want to bore/insult you nor talk over your head. What's the footage of the project (camera/codec info), and what hefty things may have been applied in PrPro, After Effects, or Sg such as noise control, warp-stabilizer, tracked key-frame masks, multiple LUT's/Looks, that sort of thing.
    And ... I take it if you export a non-Sg processed video it works as expected through AME? So it's only IF you take a PrPro project through a round-trip to Sg that AME refuses to export?
    Next ... a screen grab of the AME settings you're using would be excellent ...

  • Direct online link to video

    I want to have a URL go directly to a video and have it play on a Blackberry. Not embed the video in a page or play the video after downloading to the Blackberry. It would also be nice if it played on other types of phones (iphones, android) as well. Most video formats will work on other phones but my Blackberry just interprets it as text. What am i doing wrong?

    if you are the publisher of the video, the easiest is to broadcast your video using the RSTP protocol. From what I have read, the best fit would be to encode your videos in H.264.

  • Speedgrade - Rectangle appears over footage in Premiere after direct link

    I am using Speedgrade via direct link from Premiere, with a timeline that consists of a video track with all of my clips, another track containing adjustment layers, and a top track containing a .PNG file of a black letterbox. 
    Problem:  After applying primary and secondary color adjustments in Speedgrade (no masks) I return to Premiere.  If I hide the top track which contains my .PNG letterbox, a mysterious RECTANGLE appears over my footage.  This rectangle is even present in clips that haven't been graded yet. 
    I have included a picture to illustrate my point.
    System Specs:
    - Intel Mac OS 10.9.2
    - NVIDIA Quadro4000  GPU
    - Premiere 7.2.1
    - Speedgrade 7.2
    - Editing with .R3D files from Red Epic Camera

    **UPDATE
    This problem may not be a result of speedgrade.  Instead, I'm wondering if it's more of an issue within Premiere.  I noticed that the rectangle is caused by my adjustment layer that is sitting directly above my main video track.    As a test, I found several clips that were sitting below one adjustment layer.  I applied a three-way color correction effect to the adjustment layer, and gave it a severe blue tint.  One would expect the adjustment layer to effect the entire image on every underlying clip, but instead it only applied to a small rectangle within those clips.  As I scrub through the timeline, the rectangle moves around and changes size.  Then I realized that each clip had different amounts of scaling and positioning.  So this mysterious rectangle seems to be caused by the scaling and positioning of the underlying clips.  My adjustment layer is sized to the resolution of my 2K timeline.  However, each clip is 5K, scaled to fit.  So perhaps I need to make my adjustment layer the same exact size of my underlying clips? 
    As a test, I scaled my adjustment layer and noticed that if I increase the size by .01, the mysterious rectangle immediately jumps to fill the entire image.  Weird.
    Another weird thing to point out, referencing my original post:  The image of the girl has NO color correction applied to it, and the same goes for the adjustment layer above it.  However, there is still a rectangle present.  This clip has a small amount of rotation applied, and the rectangle is also rotated, leading me to believe the problem is because of a scaling difference between the adjustment layer and clip.  But still, WHY would there be a rectangle there when there is no color correction applied???

  • Does Direct Link from PP to SG actually work??  Does SG actually work???

    I have been hassling with this all day.... the project will go over to SG (via Direct link), and I start grading and about after 30-40 mins it will just crash (SG actually closes down)... there is no file / no save as far as I can tell... so all the work I did is lost (and this has happened 3 times now).  It is a short 5 min EPK with nothing heavy in the way of transistions.  So I read about DIRECT LINKS problems and then tried the EDL method of bringing it over, consolidated to 1 video track as it is limited too (I honestly CANNOT believe this) who edits on 1 video track?  This is ridiculious!!  But anyway, I get the big red square with all kinds of "not supported" problems and my EDL never actually gets loaded.  VERY FRUSTRATED... how am I ever going to even start thinking about grading a 90 min feature if I can't get a 5 min EPK to WORK.  So far I am NOT IMPRESSED with SG.... which stinks after I have spent days in tutorials learning the program!   Anyone actually ever use SG for a real project before???

    Allent,
    In direct-link mode, Speedgrade is using a PrPro project file directly ... and is NOT allowed to "touch" that file until you specifically tell it to go back to PrPro. That's a part that is oft mis-understood. It has a few major things to "know" or you'll get frustrated.
    First, as you've discovered, there is  NO auto-save while working on a direct-linked project in EITHER PrPro or Sg. So ... if you're over in Sg working for more than a few minutes, it is wise to manually save, perhaps adding an iterative letter/number, so that you've got your work to that point protected in case of crash.
    Second ... as Sg is locked out of changing the timeline of a  PrPro project file in any way, you cannot add a grading layer to the timeline from Sg in a direct-link session. So ... one needs to create any additional/supplemental grading layers one will need in Sg BEFORE leaving PrPro, by putting "adjustment layers" over the sequence or specific clips you'll want to use a separate grading layer on within Sg.
    Third ... another hitch some people have been befuddled by is that when you first apply a Lumetri "look" or a LUT, it's in "preview" mode. You need to hit enter or a couple other things that Sg takes as "accepting" that look/LUT permanently before going back to PrPro or that effect doesn't "save" to the project.
    So ... any timeline changes have to be done in PrPro. Corrections/grading done in Sg. Saving a file under work in a direct-link Sg session is manual ... and wise. And yes, this is now suited for working while editing, taking over sub-sequences perhaps is a way to look at it? There are some changes in workflow ... but as you get used to them, it is so much simpler than working edl's or DPX or those sorts of things. And quicker.

  • PDF links to video footage on DVD ??

    I want to make a PDF document which links to several Video clips (or different chapters in one video clip). I can make the links in Acrobat no problem, but I can't make them open a .vob in a VideoTS folder (it opens Toast for some reason). So I figure I need to make individual clips compressed in some other way?
    Because my projects usually go straight to DVD after creating menus of varying complexity in DVDSP, my work flow through Compressor has become reliable and un-varied. I have tweaked my favourite settings which work well for me.
    But now I have to make something quite different and I'm having trouble getting my head around the enormous variety of settings and choices offered in Compressor.
    I believe I can't compress these clips in mpeg-2 and author all this in a conventional DVD because of the above problem (please someone correct me if I am wrong). I think I have to compress the clips into .mov (or the like) and have all this on some sort of CD-ROM (DVD-ROM)?
    If so what compression method do I choose?
    I've done several experiments with a short clip representing the type of footage I have filmed. H264 gives excellent picture results, but it is jumpy on playback. QuickTime movies look dreadful.
    Can someone please point me in the right (or any) direction? Right now I feel I'm going round in circles.
    Cheers...
    (I'm using SD DV footage, eventual output compatible to PC users)

    I understand the idea to use a PDF linking to video playback, I have done this countless times for clients who want annual reports turned into interactive documents with video, graphics and photography added
    As to the type of file format to use to link from the PDF's, this will depent on a number of factors, end user compatability, the overall efficiency of the users computer and your own working practices.
    my comments are based with my authoring set up and the clients I supply:
    Quicktime - few windows computers have QT installed, if you use this you would need to provide QT player on the disk, the user would need to install manually. H264 looks great but users machine spec has to be good
    WMV - I use this when I am asked for video linked to a Powerpoint file or from PDF.s, works well reasonable image quality, I can usually run WMF files up to full screen on my clients machines.
    flash - again few computers have this installed, picture quality is not as good as WMV and the image size must be kept small, the user would need to install Flash Player if not already installed
    MPEG 1 - the worst image quality but the most compatable of the video formats, any PC using windows 95 and newer will play this file, I never use this as it is so poor, even though I have an expensive real time hardware encoder.
    VOB - I use this when there is more video that text for the viewer to watch. VOBs are generated from an individually created DVD using DVDSP, for our users is the best image quality.
    Having the icons showing 'blank' for the VOB files is normal.
    Toast is launching because there is an association to Toast from the VOB's just like mov files are associated to QT player, just ignore this it wont cgange the outcome in Acrobat. My VOB's are also 'blank' and are linked to DVD Afteredit
    I cant giveyou specific advice for a workflow as this is so wide open.
    If I was given this job with my resources, I would link the PDF pages to WMF files which I would create in Flip 4 Mac. I would also split the project up into smaller individual files, if the publication had 10 sections I'd make 1 file for each chapter and have a starter or main page so the user can navigate with ease, they dont know they are jumping about to different files.
    This is to keep the file size down as PDF's run better with more files but smaller file sizes.
    My main client has 60,000 Windows XP users who can not change the set up of the computer, as the IT dept does not want the user adding extra applications or changing the set up in any way. Windows Media Player is already installed on these machines.

  • Mac Pro 6,1 STILL having issues with Open CL (4K scaling and SpeedGrade direct link grades)

    I've seen the staff responses to the issues of the new Mac Pro GPU saying that 10.9.4 fixes everything. For me, it has fixed my export issues, so I'm glad. I'm no longer getting lines and artifacts on my renders.
    That's great.
    However, I'm still having several issues, and they seem to be linked to Adobe and Open CL.
    Here's a video that shows what's going on:
    mac pro issues july 7 - YouTube
    Issue #1
    Like most of you probably, I'm doing 1080p exports of most things I'm working on. The first project shows a 1080p timeline with a mix of 4k, 5k, and 720p footage. Because zooming in so much on a 720p file in a 4k timeline looks so crappy, I'm doing 1080p timelines and scaling everything to the size it needs to be. I started in a 4k timeline then switched to 1080p because the 720p footage looked so terrible. However, in the 4k timeline, I didn't have any of the issues I'm showing in this first part of the video.
    When I switched to the 1080p timeline, I discovered a weird quirk: When I resize the 4k (or 5k) footage to the size it needs to be (which varies based on the frame I want), it goes back to the 100% view when I'm scrubbing through it. When I pause, the size of the video goes back to the way I set it. I show this in the video. Then I show what was my working solution for the time being: "scale to frame size", which brings all the videos to the size of the sequence frame size and works fine. Later, I turn off OpenCL in premiere and when I scrub through the video, it doesn't zoom back in or only stay at the size I set when stopped. For some reason all of these issues only happen at 50% scale or smaller. It doesn't happen at, say, 60%.
    I've tested this with raw R3D files and other 4K (or 5K) clips (even clips exported from After Effects) and the same thing happens. It doesn't seem to happen with 2.5k footage or 1080p footage.
    Issue #2
    This is the second project you'll see in the video.
    After grading in speedgrade (through direct link) I open my project back up in premiere and start playing it back. The video plays back with delays and frame drops. Now normally, this would be expected. But this is 1080p pro res footage, and this is just an effect added, and the yellow bar appears indicating that open CL should be accelerating the playback and it should do so smoothly.
    Maybe I was just wrong in assuming that a simple grade from speedgrade would be able to playback smoothly. I turn off the grade, and it plays normally.
    But then, when I turn off open cl and leave the grade on, the video plays back without ANY issues.
    So to me, it seems I'm still having issues with Open CL and adobe. I've found fixes that make it work temporarily, I don't need that kind of answer. However, I would like this to work. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Something I need to do to get this to work?
    Here are my specs:
    Mac Pro 6,1 (Late 2013)
    3 GHz 8-Core Intel Xeon E5
    64 GB 1867 MHz DDR3 ECC
    AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB (x2)
    OSX 10.9.4
    Firmware: 2.20f18
    What you're seeing is latest version of Premiere (CC 2014, v8.0.0 [169] Build)
    Everything here is ProRes 422, running from a Promise Pegasus2 R4 RAID (drives: 4x Seagate Desktop HDD 4 TB SATA 6Gb/s NCQ 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare Drive ST4000DM000) (that's thunderbolt 2).
    I've done everything: I've restarted my computer hundreds of times, I've reset NVRAM and PRAM and done power cycles.
    This isn't just some issue that started with 10.9.3 of OSX, the 4k issues happened when I first switched to a 1080p sequence back in February (2014) or so, which means it was an issue even with 10.9.2 and the previous firmware release.
    I've reported this issue to adobe.

    That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
    Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots  and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

  • Poor Speedgrade performance using premiere's Direct Link

    I am having a problem grading my project in Speedgrade using Direct Link from Premiere.
    My project is in total 7min 30sec long consisting of MP4 video from my Canon T5i/700D. Video had a slightly higher bitrate (CBR) than usual (1.4 maybe?). In premiere I have done a bit of stabilizing using after effects (warp stabilizer) and denoising (magic bullet denoiser II) . All of these I used the 'replace with after effects composition' option. These shots make up about 1/6th of the total sequence. All my project files are located on my SSD (I thought moving them there would help. It doesn't). worth noting I am also using a custom LUT designed for CineStyle which I'm using on my canon.
    My problem is the speed. It's not even a little slow. It's unusable. Let's say I select midtones and want to up the offset a tiny bit. I click the slider and slowly move my hand up. I then have to wait around 10 - 15 seconds for speedgrade to even start recognising the change. If I let go the mouse it means I have to wait again a long time to change it once again. It's the same for all the other sliders (color temp etc.)
    I've grown to like using Speedgrade for color correction but now it's taking far too long. What should take around 20 seconds per clip is taking around 5 - 10 minutes. Also as a result my correction and grading is gotten pretty bad (it wasn't that good to start off with). Restarting it doesn't help as it's just as slow when it starts as an hour later.
    Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Any ideas?
    As I'm in a bit of a rush with this project I'm going to try just do the grading in Premiere. I've never done grading in the CC version of premiere, so is there any new color tools someone could recommend?
    Thanks.

    Looking through your gear for a quick idea ... it appears you're running twin (separate) video cards? You might try a quick disable of one card, and see if Sg runs better. I suggest this because 1) some computers at some times have had trouble running paired vid cards in Sg and 2) it's a quick & easy thing to test.
    As another thought, I did some denoising on a 2:39 clip in Ae just using its own built-in denoiser, and it ran  s   l   o  w  after that until I did a complete render of it. Even then, any change I made and it was back to   s   l   o   w  motion. When I commented here, I had a couple responses to the effect that denoising is so hardware-intensive that most of the time they left that to the final set of things before exporting.
    Hope there's other responses ...

  • Direct Link to SpeedGrade disables GPU in CC2014.2

    Bug as noted in the other thread, but ... refined and clarified. Working in a Direct Link process, I cannot do anything whatever to the simplest sequence in Sg without an immediate notice that "There are insufficient Video Resources" and Sg is disabling GPU acceleration. This is, again, after it was using less than 3% of the GPU and only around 278Mb of vRAM. It then runs slow as molasses.
    If I just try to keep working, the time lag between clicking anything and response of the program continually slows ... starts at a couple seconds of lag, soon gets to 30 seconds between my action and its reaction. Totally unusable.
    I can restart and re-enable GPU ... but it will just keep doing the same thing.
    The only thing that gets me semi-back in operation is to simply go to the Pref's panel, re-set to "Use GPU accel" but WITHOUT re-starting. It will run semi so-so ... far faster than if I don't do this and simply try to keep working (as noted above) BUT ... definitely slower than it did on CC, or CC2014, through any of their minor builds.
    I've run CC Cleaner and wiped both PrPro & Sg ... downloaded fresh & re-installed. Exactly the same behavior.

    I posted this earlier in a the creative cloud forum with no responses.  I'll post it here to see what you guys think about it:
    I'm not too familiar with the forums at this point, although I have been using them for a few months to receive some great information.  However, I've got some good ideas, and perhaps you'll think of them as good ideas too.
    From what I understand, at the moment, there's no way to tell what problems may exist in any updated versions of the Adobe CC software.  For example, when recently updating to the newest version of Adobe SpeedGrade, I and many other people are having many troubles getting it to use the GPU.  Because of this, it is assumed to be a software issue that we all just have to deal with.  For the majority of us, uninstalling this version, removing ALL of its remnants (which can be important when using SSDs) and re-installing to the previous, working version can be a huge hassle, especially when the permission of an administrator (such as for those who do this for a living in the workplace) is required to do so.  This is what I have to say:
    At the moment, is there any way to know (by personal experience, not what Adobe claims to have fixed and updated) what problems and other changes may exist in the updated software without scouring each forum's posts for each CC application?If not, I propose creating a collective area in which people can list differences they've noticed throughout the newest version of the software and problems they may have experienced with it.
    So by this point, you're probably considering why anybody should do this.  Here are the reasons that I think that this would be a huge benefit to everybody:
    People, in advance, could look at the collective experiences of those daring enough to update to the newer versions.  This would help because:
    Now they can decide, for themselves, whether or not to update (rather than find out the hard way since no information regarding software bugs about the newer versions were made easily available).
    Remember, not all of us have an easy time uninstalling and re-installing things when parts of the new program no longer work. If there was one forum, or area, or whatever it takes, where people could post all of their experiences with any of the newest versions of the Adobe CC software, I feel that it would be a huge benefit to all of us.  Of course, people would have to be daring in the first place to try the newest software and then return to post about it, but for those of us who are not fortunate enough to do so, this would greatly help.  See, I'm stuck doing horrible color grading with SpeedGrade despite having two GTX 970s in this machine and am unable to turn back to a previous version (at least, it would make more sense for me to wait until a newer version of all the software comes out considering my employer).
    Let me know what you guys think about this idea, who I should talk to in order to make it a reality, or (most importantly) if an area on these forums already exists and I'm completely unaware of it.

  • Speedgrade CC 2014 becoming increasingly slow while working on a project that was direct linked from Premiere CC.

    Speedgrade CC 2014 direct link from Premiere Pro CC 2014.  The application is becoming increasingly slow when making any adjustment or just selecting any buttons on screen.  While working for and hour on my project it is now bordering unresponsive.  In addition it is causing the Finder to become slow and any other applications such as Safari and Mail. 
    I'm on a Mac Pro5,1 OS 10.8.5, 6-core intel xeon 2.93GHz, 16gb Ram, Ati Radeon HD 5770 and NVIDEA Quadro 4000 cards. 
    I'm hoping this is just a setting in speed grade and not a bug.

    First, Davinci and  the Adobe DVA's (digital video apps) utilize resources very differently from each other. That said, your hardware is making me green ...
    This is something that should fly on your system, so ... I would definitely suggest my previous thing of running that benchmark testing ... it will tell you how your system runs the Adobe stuff, and indicate if anything could be modified so it would work better. Some people with FAR less a system than you're running fly through a DL session. Even my system with only four "real" cores (8 "logical" ones ... whatever ... ), 16Gb RAM, and a GTX770/4Gb vRAM and multiple internal & eSATA drives to split things up for throughput sustained stuff, has been running pretty smoothly. Even though it wasn't using much of the video card, which screams for many people in the Adobe DVA's. This latest set of improvements has pretty much nearly eliminated Sg using it ... so we'll have to puzzle out WHAT is causing Sg and the other apps to ignore my card when in identical setups it's a real beast.
    That's the kind of thing that can drive the engineers up the wall. Some of the systems that have had terrible problems such that users have been on here complaining that "no on could possibly be running "serious professional footage & effects" on a system like theirs, didn't you idiots test it?" ... have received the response ... that Kevin or Al or someone is running a completely identical system to almost all tiny respects ... and is flying with 6k footage running a ton of PrPro & Ae effects then worked heavy in Sg. And coasting at it. Not that they at all challenge that the user's system is nearly unusable at the moment ... but figuring out why on two nearly identical setups it works so differently can be rather tedious with hundreds of thousands of lines of code involved, various plugins, and maybe a 2/3rds moon on the third Tuesday.
    Like mine. I know quite a few people use this card on the Adobe apps and it's really flying for them. It's been re-installed twice on mine, Windows and all monitoring systems see it fine, but ... even after multiple installs and CC cleaner attempts and such it's not "seen" properly by any Adobe app. So ... off  to run the benchmark to see what all in my system is doing fine ... and if there's any hint as to why that card isn't getting used.
    Also ... it would maybe be useful to get Dennis Weinmann or Fran Roig to jump in, maybe get a sample of your project file or info on those LUT's or something, to see if they've got any ideas. Trouble is most of Adobe's staff is on Winter Break for the next week plus.

  • Speedgrade 7.2.1-direct link-GPU-real time color updates?

    Hello,
    Adobe says that SpeedGrade 7.2.1 now takes advantage of the GPU when Direct Linking a sequence out of Premiere.
    Questions:
    1.  Does this mean I should see color corrections update in real time in my scopes and monitors the same way I see real time color updates in a native ircp SpeedGrade project?
    2.  I have a Black Magic DeckLink 4K Extreme card.  Can SpeedGrade use my 4K card, or handshake with Mercury Transmit, so that I can get either an HDMI or SDI video signal output to my monitor?
    3.  I notice that for Premiere, adobe officially certifies GTX 690 for windows, and GTX 680 for Mac.  Does this mean GTX 690 is not supported for Mac?
    4.  I tried right clicking on the SpeedGrade app, opening packet contents, and adding gtx 690 into cuda approved card list.  That didn't seem to help.  I did not try to amend the Open CL card list document, would that help?
    Here is my system config:
    Mac Pro Tower Early 2009
    2 x 2.66 6-core Intel Xeon
    48GB RAM 1333 DDR3
    Cards:
    Mac system report says all three of these are GPUs, however, my tech guy says the 640 is for GUI.
    1.  NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 (slot 2)
    2.  NVIDIA GeForce GT 690 (PCI Lane width x16)
    3.  NVIDIA GeForce GT 690 (PCI Lane width x16)
    Cuda driver 6.0.37
    Media storage is a raided 9TB serial ATA, about 300mbs read and write.  Hard drive is even faster. 
    Adobe if you are listening, I'm trying to add SpeedGrade to my tool belt, especially since you did such a good job integrating the Tangent Element.  The whole point of using SpeedGrade, as opposed to Resolve, is that the Premiere sequence links.  I have access to everything, except AE comps.

    Alright folks...I'm so close.
    So, recap, getting real time performance and color updates using Direct Link in my external scopes and monitor, now that I'm on a Z800, windows 7 64 bit, with Quadro 4000, Cuda driver 394, AJA LHi card and break out box.
    However, some problems still:
    1.  My internal SpeedGrade scopes are just a group of funky dots that kinda resemble my external scopes, viewing the same signal.  Computer monitor resolution is 1920x1080.  Tried other display options, still funky dots.  Not a biggy, since external scopes are fine, just curious as to what's up with that?  Is it because I'm using the latest Cuda driver 394, instead of an older one, since 4000 is old?
    2  Do I need a LUT for SpeedGrade to output an HDMI video and SDI video signal in Rec709 2.4 gamma?  Is it the handshake with the AJA LHI?  Looks like it's spitting out sRGB 2.2 right now.  I imported bars that I made in Symphony.  These bars play out fine in Symphony and Resolve, through the same signal path SDI to the same monitor.  However, in SpeedGrade whites are lower than a 100 and blacks are lifted.  Since the bars in the external monitor look very similar to computer monitor, I'm assuming SpeedGrade is spitting out sRGB signal.  Can't seem to insert the images I snapped, if they would help, I can email them.
    3.  Since there is no manual for SpeedGrade, I'm about to buy a 3rd party "class in a book" just so I can have some run down of what some of the settings and preferences options actually mean.  Like what's "shaders?"  Or why does it seem like framerate can be set in three different preference tabs?  Would be nice if there was just a document with a run down of settings and preferences for both Premiere and SpeedGrade.  Especially since I already have great turorials for the actual operaton of SpeedGrade like Patrick Inhofer's.
    Thanks in advance.  Wait....do you hear that....Adobe...is that you????

  • Premiere to SpeedGrade 7.1 Direct Link Crash

    Hey Dennis!
    Upon doing some more google searches, I turned up a related post here:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/5807672
    I was also able to solve the issue by selecting High-performance NVIDIA processor for both Speedgrade and Premiere Pro in Nvidia Control Panel --> Manage 3D settings.
    System Specifications:
    Intel Core i7 3610QM 2.30 Ghz
    Windows 7 Ultimate
    Nvidia GeForce 660M

  • Direct linking from Premiere gets stuck at post processing

    Hi Guys,
    I have a huge project from Premiere. It's a feature about 1hr 32mins that i tried to direct link to speed grade. Speed grade loads up and it gets stuck at post processing. I read that people recommend exporting as an EDL but you only have 1 track of video? and I have like 9 tracks. What do you guys recommend doing?
    heres the setup I have.
    Macbook Pro Retina 15".
    256gb SSD
    16gb Ram
    Adobe CC
    Project sits on 2 thunderbolt drives.

    i turned off the intel gpu and only ran on the 1gb card. still nothing. left it alone for 5 hours while it was in "post processing" and didn't load. im getting nervous, even if I got it to work and it crashes on me; I cant afford to wait on it.
    I went ahead and exported my project to quicktime and currently working in Resolve 10 Lite. The scene detection was a lot faster than speedgrades. Im not here to knock on adobe/speed grade. hopefully you guys can fix this soon?
    thanks
