R E D R AW P L U G - I N F O R F I N A L C U T P R O X NOTES
• Changes applied to a clip are actually made to the source file in the event browser and are cascaded to all clips linked to the file • If a RED Rocket acceleration board is present it will, per default, automatically be detected and used to accelerate R3D decoding. Please see the REDcode preference panel chapter for more information • When importing an HDRx clip only the A, or main track will be imported • For clips recorded with a Monochrome the Color Space, Kelvin, Tint, DRX, and Saturation are inactive. Rocket support for these clips is not available, so please disable it in the REDcode Preference Panel. • When importing if a multiple section of both R3D and QuickTime reference movies is made, or a parent RDC folder is selected, only the R3D file(s) will be imported
