In the latest Beta build, we have added support of RED files from Komodo camera.

Please try out your RED workflow in the build and let us know how it works.

 

Thanks

Hi Brajesh. 

Why there is a need to support Komodo files specifically? Since they're R3D as usual? 

Thx,

Thanks for your query. There will be a new RED Komodo camera which can capture Komodo (red) files for which the support is added in Premeire Pro.

Thank you for your answers. 

 

Yes, I know. 

 

But the files supposed to be R3D files just like RED Helluim 8K files that are supported already on Premiere Pro. 

 

Aren't they?

So I've tried beta build 14.3 that has added RED SDK for R3D support and my RED files will actually play now, in the timeline but still not a smooth as it should be, I still get some dropped frames during playback. Footage still is a little jittery. I get 2-12 dropped frames during playback. I'm working with various RED footage up to 8K Resolution. Even when I drop the playback resolution to 1/4 or 1/8 it still doesn't playback as smooth as it did in premiere Pro build 13.1.5. Im available to provide any additional information needed to help.
We're going in the right direction but we're still not there just yet. Getting RED playback as smooth as it was in v13.1.5 is the goal.

Wanted to add more info to my findings to help the developers. Looks like 4K,5K and 6K resolutions play nicely, but 8K resolutions is where the playback struggles a bit.
in addition, sometimes during playback with 8K footage the dropped frame indicator will show green, even though its dropping frames during playback. Again this is only happening with RED 8K resolution footage.

Thanks for your feedback. I understand that 8k footage is dropping frames during playback.

Can you please help me with these deatils- 

1. Machine configuration

2. 8k footage with which you are facing the issue and the project.

3. At which render and resolution are you playing back.
