Split R3Ds weing space calculation in media management

PostMon Mar 20, 2023 9:17 pm

When I collect my project full of r3d files that are split in 3.4 gb (or whatever) chunks in .rdc folders resolves and premieres estimates are way off.

It showed 233GB and ended up well over 800GB.

Yeah, I've noticed that too. Really annoying. I think it's a consequence of how Red writes their footage. Maybe one day a coder will solve the problem and release a script that overrides the estimates that people can plug'n'play while media managing

My god, still splitting files for an outdated storage limit in 2023 with a pro camera? C'mon Red!
Now that the cat #19 is out of the bag, test it as much as you can and use the subforum.
