To my eye, he's exactly right: the 5DtoRGB clip solves the Quicktime gamma issues I've harped on in the past, and does indeed also seem to offer a bit of moiré correction thanks to its chroma smoothing. He's not overselling it you can clearly see the differences he speaks of in his example clip: It’s also had the unexpected benefit of fixing some (not all) of the moiré issues. First, it’s lifted the gamma and given me a flatter image and more dynamic range. In other words it is in a completely different league to the footage from MPEG streamclip. It’s an epiphany… Holy crap, this thing is unbelievable! The first thing you notice is just how insanely smooth the footage is, it looks alive, preserved and ready to grade. From two great comparisons, the first entitled 5D To RGB – New Transcoding App Tested and the second 5D To RGB The Follow Up: Bigger Comparison, Robin draws the following conclusion:

So now that we have our hands on the plugin, what's the verdict?įor Final Cut-based editors, I'll defer to Robin, given I'm transitioning to Premiere Pro CS5 because of its ability to edit DSLR footage without transcoding. But I was beat to the punch by No Film School regular Robin Schmidt, who has done some great tests of his own, and as a result the word is out now even 24 DP Rodney Charters is tweeting about 5DtoRGB. Now that I've successfully built a 64-bit hackintosh, however (the how-to article is coming soon!), I was looking forward to putting the plugin to work. 5DtoRGB claims to offer the highest quality output of all of these options, but despite my posting about the plugin repeatedly, I could do no actual tests with it since my lowly laptop was restricted to 32-bit processing (5DtoRGB requires a 64-bit processor).

5DtoRGB is a software plugin from Rarevision similar to Canon E1, MPEG Streamclip, and Magic Bullet Grinder in that it is designed to transcode your DSLR footage into something that's eminently more editable.

it just seems to me that it should be possible in Windows.Months ago here on No Film School I tried to call attention to a little-known DSLR plugin in development known as 5DtoRGB. I will be getting a Mac and another Decklink and can use this for ProRes if that's the only way. It's touted as a fully cross-platform app, with Mac, Windows and Linux supported. The blurb at /au/products/decklink/mediaexpress says that Media Express capture 'supports uncompressed YUV and RGB QuickTime, AVI and DPX plus compressed ProRes, DVCPRO, MJPEG formats'. The Decklink specs at /au/products/decklink/techspecs say it supports (.) Apple ProRes 4444, Apple ProRes 422 (HQ), Apple ProRes 422, Apple ProRes (LT), Apple ProRes 422 (Proxy) etc. How can I use Media Express to capture in ProRes MOV format on Windows? Or is ProRes capture a Mac-only thing? Now, I run Media Express again, expecting to see all the QT codecs that I can use for capture, but it's still just the 4 AVI ones. If I run the Speed Test, it's flying, and sure enough I can capture any of the above formats with no dropped frames (I'm using a Hi-8 camera as test source).īecause I want to capture to ProRes, I installed QuickTime v7.75 and verified that a ProRes MOV plays OK in QuickTime Player. When I run Media Express and go to Prefs, my project type is PAL, and I can capture in AVI 8-bit YUV, or 10-bit, or AVI Motion JPG, or DVX. I am only interested in capturing composite PAL at this time, so I have set the Blackmagic control panel for composite video / analog audio I/O, and default system is PAL.

I have read the Desktop Video PDF and installed v 10.11.

I have just installed Decklink in an Intel based PC (Gigabyte GA-B85M-HD3 mobo, 16GB RAM, i5 processor, 4TB SATA drive).
