RED Rocket update...

[Robert Frank]

Please excuse my ignorance, but from what I understand, FCP currently does not support 4K files. If I am wrong, please excuse me. If I am not, then how does it interface with FCP?

Thanks,

Nick.

Ah.. hmm... right. Hope FCS3 is coming!

I just read this again.

The Quicktime component for R3Ds will support RED Rocket also. Any app that uses the REDcode QTs will also get accelerated (including FCP).

So it sounds like 4k is scaled to 2k within FCP using the Quicktime R3D component.

REDrocket has a built in scalar so while the card is processing full 4k, it can scale it down to 2k to send back to FCP.

is it will work with color ?

[Warren Kommers]

Will this card work in significantly accelerating future 5k,6k resolutions?

My question as well. No mention of 5K / 25fps in this update. Is that still planned in the spec?

Thanks much,
