I have just upgraded from Prospect 2K to Prospect 4K (thank you CineForm once again) and am attempting to run a workflow test from a R3D file through to CineForm AVI.

Following the CineForm Tech Notes I've come to the place of exporting the R3D from Redcine but am not able to find the CineForm HD/2K/4K compressor in the list of available compressors within the current Redcine.

I loaded older versions of Redcine but was not able to fine the CineForm compressor in earlier versions either.

Do I need to somehow point Redcine in the direction of the compressor?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There should be nothing custom required, and RedCine is working much better these days. Check that the folder C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTComponents contains CFHDCodec.qtx. If it is installed correctly, we need to work out way your system isn't seeing it. In that case download this tool http://www.dependencywalker.com/, and drag CFHDCodec.qtx onto the running Depends tool, it will tell you if you are missing any libraries.

David,

Many thanks for the quick response.

CFHDCodec.qtx is present in C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTComponents and on dragging that file into Dependency Walker the following message is returned:

Warning: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in a delay-load dependent module.

Many thanks again.

Which module is that? Did it tell you? I've never seen that warning.

I'm afraid I don't know enough to tell which module - Dependency Walker doesn't appear to say which module is having the problem. The only indicator I see at all is that under the Module CFHDCODEC.QTX the Link Checksum is highlighted in the color red (0x00103Da5). I guess another possible indicator is that many (more than not) of the modules have an hour-glass indicator before them.

Thanks again...

Are you sure you current have a valid CineForm license (even an active trial?) As that seem very weird. Theis is what I get from Depends.

I seem to have an activated Prospect 4K Version 3.3. This is what I get from Depends. Hmmm...

Does AE work via Quicktime or any other QT PC package. Uninstall, make sure the QT component is gone, and reinstall.

I'm uninstalling QT, (making sure that CFHDCodec.qtx has disappeared as well) and then install QT 7.5 (think I had 7.45 or somesuch before). Thanks

David - I uninstalled and reinstalled QT (actually a few times (don't ask)) and then uninstalled and reinstalled CineForm. I then went to RedCine in, in fact the CineForm compressor was there. I'm rendering a CineForm AVI out of RedCine as we speak.

Thanks again for all of your help.

David
