DXV import button
DXV import button
I think it would awesome if on the clip pane you added a convert to dxv button, that way if we added a non dxv mov to our composition and a client handed me a clip mid show I could just play it with worrying about converting it first but if I had time to convert it to dxv I could The DXV clip could be saved in the same place as the original media.
Re: DXV import button
interesting idea, Ive never heard anything like it before(i like to hear new ideas btw) I imagine it could be a little complicated to do considering say for example you were playing live. your system is performing on the gpu and then having some intense usage on your cpu to render a clip in the software... if you know what i mean? I may be wrong in my assumption.
Still a good idea.
just my 2 cents

Re: DXV import button
Final Cut X does do something similar to this. If you add a clip it automatically creates another version of the clip in a ProRes format and saves it in a bin.
I use resolume for primarily for corporate events, and often clients hand me content during the show. I'm suggesting that I can still just load content in and play it on the fly and not have it automatically convert the content, but if there is a break in the sessions or thru out the day I could just click a button in the clip pane and it would create a new dxv file and swap out the old file.

Re: DXV import button
cool i still think its a good idea. Im starting to do a little more of the same work and think its a handy feature. I think i was thinking more on a software dev level.
but a +1 from me

Re: DXV import button
We have been playing around with this idea as well. It's still very much in the conceptual phase, but it would greatly increase program stability (and ease a lot of conversion headaches) if all clips would be guaranteed DXV.
Automatically encode on import, encode in background when idle, these are all options, but we need to go a log ways more before it becomes anything tangible.

Re: DXV import button
thats cool. In the BG I think would work best for me. or even just different options like you mentioned.
Encode over a network? - if thats possible.
Im just thinking of the BG renderer for AE and im sure other programs have similar options.

Re: DXV import button
Certain software (like procoder or carbon coder) allows you to create droplets. That's very handy cause you just drop the clip to the icon and press start conversion, or so.
