Thanks Bruno, will swap to SSD at least and make sure to add more internal space on my next Mini.
-
I'm talking about the USB-C ports, but I experience much slower playback from the external drive than the internal ones. Isn't it supposed to be that way?
-
I bought an Apple Mac Mini M1, and while it is very fast when working inside of DaVinci Resolve with footage on the internal disk - it's slow with a fast external hard drive connected to the USB port. Any suggestion? Do I need to connect the drive differently, will a RAID work faster? Any ideas very much appreciated. I want to avoid swapping the Mini with a new one with more storage.
-
And while I have you here... any idea how I can get Avid to recognize the Ultrastudio? Desktop Video and Resolve recognize it.

Thank you Bruno. I did now, but unfortunately the sequence does not update. When I match frame the clips though, it appears in the monitor window but not in the main timeline / player window.
-
Seems like I can right-click the grouped sequence and choose "edit group" to swap the clip in the group. The issue I'm having now is that the main sequence with the group on the timeline does not update. Tried to restart. Any idea what can solve this issue?

Hi. Is it possible to change / swap a grouped clip in Avid with another clip? I did some changes to the original clip so I would like to change it without redoing the whole edit.

I'm considering buying a second hand Flanders Scientific AM210. If anyone has experience with this model, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thanks in advance.
It's 8 bit.

I have two processes going on at the same time on my Mac Mini M1-
1. Copying files to the Mac Mini from an external SSD disk.
2. Transcoding some footage inside of DaVinci Resolve from the internal SSD disk.
When I transcode, it slows down the file transferring. It should take an hour or so to copy the files over, but when when starting the transcode it suddenly goes up to 10 hours. Why is this happening? -
First of all, "working under the transform" means the opposite of what you write. It means working prior to the transform / on nodes before the transform.
If you want to work on a normalized image you will have to work on a node after the transform. If you want access to the log data, you will need to work on nodes before the transform. It can be more complex, but you are confused enough.
I suggest you watch the first lessons of this course, it explains the concept very well.

Every thing displayed would be in rec709 even tho I'm working under the final transform.
Yes of course, what is your question really?

why arent all the nodes before in rec709?
Because the transform is applied on the third node. Resolve processes the first node first, the second node next and finally the third node and it will stay in camera space all the way until it reach the transform. I guess what confuses you is that you see the transformed image on your monitor. That does mean the image is rec709 but it doesn't mean the nodes prior to the transform is rec709.

I have a grade and need to adjust the mid gray to 18% prior to exporting the LUT. How can I extract the mid gray from the grade on the scope to be sure to put it on the correct IRE level?
-
If tint is a hue + white according to color theory. Why is the tint slider something different?

Check out Ravengrade.com,.

Through the analogue outputs, but it seems like this is an issue with speed overall. Maybe because I have my Prores HQ footage on an HDD external disk connected to the USB-C output on the Mac Mini M1? Will it become speedier if I put all the footage on an external SSD disk? The frame counter in Resolve shows it uses a few milli seconds until it reaches full frame speed.

I have the Black Magic Ultrastudio Mini 4K connected to a Mac Mini M1 and I do experience some latency / delay. When I click "play" on the timeline in DaVinci Resolve the image plays immidiately but it takes a millisecond or two before the audio is sent to the audio monitors. It's annoying because it's not possible to edit precisely this way. Any idea how to deal with this?

To make Ravengrades Cinelook Plugin work with Mira PowerGrades you need to use v.1.5 on both. Can you confirm please?
-
Watch Jason Bowdachs color grading training on Lowepost, it covers it quite well.

Always try to get your skin tones where they should be with your overall global grade. Balancing an image with the skin tones in mind often gets the rest of the image where it should be.
When doing secondary work on skin tones, try the broadest brushes first. Personally I try to reach for the hue vs. sat and hue vs. hue curves. If that does not work, I will key.

Arri Log C to Rec 709 and then create an offset node with some global adjustments for better matching?
-
So you have two files right, one with the background and one with the foreground? And the foreground video file has alpha channels? if that's so, just bring both the files in and stack the foreground shot on top of the background in your timeline.
Or did they provide you with the final comp shot and an external matte?
More info please.- 1

I just want to say I got the Mira PowerGrade Collection today and they are amazing, this takes my grading to the next level. Thank you Lowepost and Ravengrade for always backing our work with insight and great tools.
