Premiere - RED Footage - EDL issue

Hey guys,
I have a short film project that was shot in RED. The editing is done and its going to the colorist who is using Resolve. During editing we renamed the files in the Premiere session with the scene and take nos. The original RED files are untouched with their original folder structure. Now, when I export the edl for my colorist some of the clips in the edl are referring to the clip names in the session rather than to the original RED footage name. Others are referring to their original RED name. And those clips are fine when he assembles it in Resolve. I have asked adobe support about this but they are not of being great help. Any ideas? Thanks.

Probably because nobody knows.
If I were you, I would be busy re-naming the clips
back to the file names so I can spit out a usable edl
and figure out the kinks later... instead of waiting
(and double-posting).
note:
Instead of re-naming files, I use the 'Comments'
and other columns for scene descriptive information.

Since Prelude doesn't work with Red footage, how can I add logging info to a file in Premiere Pro

Since Prelude doesn't work with Red footage, how can I add logging info to a file in Premiere Pro CS6?

RED footage has a restriction on metadata. We are looking into what it would take to get full metadata support into our system, but you cannot tag red footage at this time.

Premiere CS6 - keyframed scaling is not working with RED footage when Time Remapping is used

Hello,
My system is: Win7, Premiere CS6 (6.0.5), 12GB RAM, etc...
My project settings: I'm using 1080p RED timeline.
Steps:
Using 4K RED footage with "Scale to frame size" disabled after placing the clip on timeline.
Under effects time remapping is set to 50%.
Motion->Scale is keyframed from 50% to 100% to achieve zoom in effect while preserving image quality.
Clip stays at 50% Scale ignoring the keyframes.
Problem is present during preview and in the exported file. I tried with CUDA enabled and disabled and problem persists.
If I turn off Time Remapping, then the clip responds to scaling keyframes.
Is there any workouround or can this bug be fixed?
Thanks!

Thanks.
This seems to work but I had to apply TR to the nested sequence and scaling to the original clip.
Otherwise scaling operations are messed up.
This situation reminds me of after effects and effects processing order.

Cannot Ingest RED Footage in Prelude

I'm trying to ingest RED Epic footage in a variety of formats, but Prelude is unable to pull any of it in. The error message reported in the Events panel is "Import task - import file: "{path\filename}.R3D" failed. Reason: Import XMP failed!"
I'm running Win7 x64. Prelude is version CS6 1.0.1
The updated ImporterRED.prm is located in D:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Prelude CS6\Plug-ins\Common\
The updated ImporterREDServer.exe is located in D:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Prelude CS6\
I can pull the footage into Premiere Pro with no issue. Does anyone have a fix?
Thanks,
Stivan

it says in the manual that prelude cannot import red without transcoding...
since it cannot write to reds metadata it is a waste of time anyways

Premiere Pro CC playback issue

I'm running premiere pro CC on a brand new mac pro, and am experiencing playback issues after rendering video. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to why this happens, but I do notice it when layering multiple video tracks. When the rendered video is playedback, it seems to drop frames in the program monitor. Essentially, it looks like a flicker effect has been applied, and the video will cut out rapidly, and a black screen with apear every other frame. This stops randomly, and normal playback resumes.
I've had this issue working with Red footage, Canon DSLR footage and GoPro footage... Footage type doesn't seem to affect it. It doesn't necessairly happen when a transition or edit has been applied... I can't figure out any sort of cause.
Any insight would be much appreciated.

Red Footage and Final Cut Server

Aloha gang-
I am still testing FCS in our studio and enjoy many of the features in this product. I love being able to search for footage and pull it into my FCP project with no waiting (using edit-in-place). But I am looking for some advice and knowledge regarding Red Footage.
My scenerio is this:
We render all our red footage to offline files that we will use in the post production process. I want to tag all those files with appropriate metadata so our edit team can search and retrieve files as they need it. But with red there are 7 files (in our workflow) that correspond to the same thing. Basically there is the original R3D file which can not be used in FCP, there are the 4 quicktime proxies that the camera generates and live in the same folder as the R3D, and these are the files I want to get back to after the production is through and archived. There is the offline quicktime we generate to edit with which we need to tag. There is a log and transfer quicktime we can log and transfer all this data to FCS (but it doubles the data size so I am not looking to use this one and edit performance is okay at best), and finally there is the folder that the 4 proxies and original red file live in.
All of these files should be search able by the same metadata. Imagine the shot is of a blue bird. When I type blue bird I would want all of these files to show up (obviously I could limit my search so I only get the version I need for what I am doing i.e. offline, proxie, etc. I have made metadata lookups for this so this is not the challenge.)
The challenge is I only want to log 1 of these files and have the metadata applied to all of them. They all have almost identical names. The offline, R3D, and folder file have the exact same name. The proxies are identical but with _F, _H, _M, and _P behind them. For the catalog process I only want to transcode proxies for the _M (The _F, _H take way too long and the proxies look the same as _M and the _P is too small
I could make them a bundle but that does not help too much as the offline lives in a different place as the footage.
Any ideas would be greatful. My easiest solution is to tag the files twice, once for the production and once for the archive, but this seems like a waste of time that I could have a computer do instead
P.S. anyone successful in getting the metadata out of the red file, I see the red metadata set, and have it in place, but can not get it to show anything no matter which file I upload.
Any ideas, or help would be great

Thank you for your replies. I guess my question is not really answered because of the conundrum associated with red footage
But my workflow to get through this will be as follows: (In case anyone is interested)
Set a scan to bring in the offline quicktimes as they are rendered and have someone tag them with meaningful tags to help us search during the production. I will send those to archive when we are done.
After the project is completed and the files are removed from Final Cut Server I will set a scan to import all the _M files (they transcode faster and quality is not an issue since it is making proxies) and tag them as best I can for the long haul (archive) I can either leave the media on the drive or back it up, depending on the immediate use of the files. This works very well if the media is still there as I can just drag the _M into Clipfinder and render the shot I need as I need it.
I am storing these clips in folders labeled CC_LTOXXX (where XXX is the number for the LTO tape which increases by one for each tape I use. When I import them into Final Cut Server from the LTO folder I have a direct line to which LTO tape the file lives on. It's not easy to get the files back (so with files used frequently I will also keep a copy on an external drive I can just plug in) from an LTO, but it is doable.
If anyone has an easy way to pull a list of files from an LTO tape that would be great, and even better if it could be a list Final Cut Server made, or if Final Cut Server could just pull the files. My LTO is a network drive so I would have to access it through an IP address, but if I could do that I would be golden.
Anyway I know this will all evolve and this is just where I am right now, any ideas would be appreciated.

RED Footage has strange banding with H.264 export

Exporting RED footage to H.264 (just as review files) from Media Encoder CC 2014 and it has some strange horizontal banding going on. Never happened with CC. Anyone know what this is??

Would you be able to post an image of that issue here on the forum message? that help us better understand the issue you are referring to. Also, what Settings in H264 did you have? Maybe you can post image of your settings as well.
Thanks.

Red footage and CS5

Interested in a bit of dialogue about Red footage and CS5.
Just quoted a production shooting 35mm film combined with footage from the Red Camera.. (reasons various)
Am I setting my self up for a whole lot of whoop-*** problems with the red stuff?
Anyone with experience of Red and CS5 willing to relate.
Thanx
Craig

Thanx guys.
My tests to date with 4k footage (downloaded) has been successful
(it played fine in my project)
and now...
I am delving into this RED thing a bit more deeply ....
I assume that the new importer as linked to here:
http://blogs.adobe.com/toddkopriva/2010/05/cs5-mysteriumx-red-update.html
is required (a must install) to enhance the CS5 "capabilty" in RED footage management?
Will shoot Red Camera tests this coming week (with audio).
Must tell you... my faithful and regular Camera Assistant is appalled I am considering the RED for one of our shoots. He has had many bad experiences with the hardware!
I have my own trepidations as a D.P ( as well as being the guy who will edit the footage).
Issue is I have clients for whom this is a bit of a "name drop" request for their productions.

After Effects CC Render Errors with RED footage and ProRes 4444 proxies

Working on an 8 Core, 2008 Mac Pro with 16GB of RAM running Mountain Lion.
I just upgraded to After Effects CC and I'm having a whole bunch of errors ...
-- the 'MooV' file is damaged or unsupported
-- error getting package info for file "..." ( 3 :: 164 )
-- Error (4) reading frame from file "..." ( 86 :: 2 )
I'm trying to make ProRes 4444 proxies from RED files (sometimes as big as 4K), which will eventually end up in a 1920x1080 project. I'll make a 4444 proxy, work on it all day with no problems, then when I try to render (or save a RAM preview) any one of the previous errors will show up.
My projects seemed to work just fine fine in AE CS6, and I've worked with RED footage in AE before with little issue. I've completly restarted my system, re-installed everything, worked off an external drive, worked on my internal (software) RAID, rendered to local and external hard drives, adjusted my multiprocesser render settings (on and off), cleared the cache ... nothing is fixing it.
Does anybody else have any ideas? Or insight. Or anything?!
Thanks for your time,
Eliot

I'm working on a MacbookPro, Early 2013, OS X 10.8.4, and I'm having the same exact error:
However instead of using RED footage, I'm using a 3rd party plugin called Element 3D and Optical Flares from VideoCopilet.net.
I'm not sure if the bug is related, I'm just wondering if anyone else has any idea on how to fix this problem. I have a fresh install of CC so I can't downgrade to CS6.
Another error popped up during multiple trys in export:
In case the old file was actually corrupted, I checked all my backups that worked perfectly fine with CS6 in the past, and I get the same error when I copy them over to my hard drive on my mac.
My current setup is:
Processor: 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory: 16GB
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB
I really don't want to recreate this entire file from scratch. That would be a lot of hours wasted... any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

RED footage record frame rate

I am working with some RED footage in PP CS5.5 and I would like to check with my media what was the recording frame rate at the time of the shoot. I looked into the metadata and cannot find any field with that information. For example I have some slow motion footage shot at different frame rates and I would like to identify precisely what it is.
If I go in REDCINE-X PRO there is a field called "Record Frame Rate" that gives me exactly that information. What is the equivalent in Premiere Pro and where can I find it?
Thank you,
David

No... I checked the Clip Properties window as well with no luck...
Here is the information I get in REDCINE-X PRO: you can see that particular clip was shot at 300 fps
Here is the information I get in PP CS5.5, inside the project window (I looked also into the metada information with no luck so far...):
Again when I play this clip in PP @ 23.976, it plays in slowmo as expected because it was shot at 300 fps. What I would like to get is that information of Recorded Frame Rate in PP.
Thanks,
David

Can't Conform Red footage through Cinema Tools?

Hi there, need advice.
I can't conform off line Prores footage with original R3D files.
1. I created database by dropping the hard drive ikon with original Red footage into Cinema Tools. Cinema Tool creates the file with extension .ctdb (cinema tools data base)
2. From FCP I exported EDL of my project/sequence.
3. Then, I opened Color and imported EDL,
4. New window pops up and asks for database file.
5. Choosed database.
6. Color loads the cuts into timeline but it *doesn't connect/import* original R3D files. Why?
What am I doing wrong?
Also, I did this workflow before successfully but for some reason it doesn't work now.
Many thanx,
ps
Color 1.5.2
REDCODE 4.2
footage shot with build 21
frame size 4096x2304

Never mind.
Step 4 and 5 was not necessary. I guess Color remembers database from previous projects.

How to sync audio tracks with RED footage that has no reference audio?

So I shot a short film for my thesis project and the damn crew didn't record reference audio. We shot on a RED camera and had a sound guy with a shotgun mic. So we have crystal clear audio tracks from a separate sound card and tons of RED footage with abosolutely no sound.
Lucky we did use a slate, so I know I have to go one by one and manually sync all the audio with the right video tracks. Though I am unsure how exactly to do it. Once synced, will I have to edit from the timeline? How can I reimport the synced footage into a new project so I can edit from my media bin?
