Re: [Avid-L2] G-Raids, MacDrive Pro

 

For FW400 41 MB/s is pretty much in line. For eSATA, that is extremely slow.
Either way, check drive's entry in Device Manager to make sure the drive
is set to optimized for performance and not "Quick Removal".

Re: [Avid-L2] G-Raids, MacDrive Pro

 

Hi Jeff,

I think FW 400 is 400 Mbit/sec which would be 50 MByte/sec at full transfer speed so you would be looking at 19 minutes for 56GB.

The eSATA seems very slow but the FW400 seems pretty close to what you would expect, 41.5MB versus 50MB theoretical.

Forgive the cross-posting.

I am working with a Windows 7-64 PC with MacDrive Pro, and am getting ridiculously slow transfer speeds using G-RAIDs (mostly new ones, 2x 2TB drives, FW 800 and eSATA and USB2.

I chose these because I am working with people on Macs who want FW800 and I need eSATA for fast transfers.

So I try transferring a puny 56 GB file from the G-RAID to a nearly empty 4x 4TB internal raid. Via eSATA the transfer speed was so slow -- 13 MB/minute! -- that I switched to FW400 (don't have 800 on this PC) and the speed is 41.5 MB/second -- still ridiculously slow.

Assume this isn't a MacDrive Pro thing since I am not writing to the Mac-formatted G-Raid. Is there something about G-RAIDS that needs tweaking? I remember a similar problem with them about a year ago.

[Avid-L2] reshaping the manual

 

Can I ask everyone to join me in encouraging manufacturers to create
manuals in layouts for both paper printing and laptop / tablet reading?

Xendata have done it here http://tinyurl.com/cac2jmq (bottom left) and
it occurs to me that now we all read manuals on laptops and tablets this
would be a "good thing" so collective pressure in this direction might
convince the people in tech pubs to do it?

Thoughts?

Philip,

Thanks for the update on Wes' duties at Adobe. I hadn't heard he was
Product Manager. Good for him!

I am concerned that you're referring to yourself in the third person...

The right click / remove corrections affects the entire timeline.

What you want to do is park on the 103 shot, then use the standard "remove effect" (circle with a slash) and it will remove from all the shots linked to that shot via that source correction mode.

[Avid-L2] Symphony CC question

I'm running Symphony 6.5.2 on Mac, and I'm thinking that the following is a bug,
but confirmation either way would be helpful (for my sanity).

1. I have Src Tape corrections applied to all shots from Tape 103.

2. I have Src Tape corrections applied to all shots from Tape 104.

3. I want to remove only the corrections made to tape 103.
So, I park on one of the tape 103 clips.

4. I Right-click and select "Remove Correction."

5. From the dialog window I select "Segment" only and click OK. Nothing happens (effect not removed from the segment I'm parked on). So I figure, OK, since the correction was applied to every clip from that tape, then I need to select "Tape" in the dialog window.

6. I select "Tape" from the dialog window and *ALL* corrections are removed, from *BOTH* tape 103 *and* tape 104 clips. My expectation was that only corrections to clips from tape 103 would be removed.

Bug or Feature?

I thank you… and my sanity thanks you.

[Avid-L2] Re: JVC DT-V24G1E gamma settings for Rec709

 

Go 2.35. That is the European standard. For more pain inducing information on the subject:

"Rec. 709 is written as if it specifies the capture and transfer characteristics of HDTV encoding - that is, as if it were scene-referred. However, in practice it is output (display) referred with the convention of a 2.4-power function display [2.35 power function in EBU recommendations]. (Rec. 709 and sRGB share the same primary chromaticities and white point chromaticity; however, sRGB is explicitly output (display) referred with an average gamma of 2.2.)"

From: <<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rec._709>>

And if you want yet more pain, you can always go to Charles Poynton:

<<http://www.poynton.com/PDFs/GammaFAQ.pdf>>
