Do you think it is a viable alternative to a Barco or Christi? Here is a link to the product page: http://www.red.com/products/red-ray  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 07-26-2012 11:28 PM                        Doesn't look like it's DCI compliant so no... I guess. I like how it's rack mountable, though. Put it right in with the Dolby CP-55.  |  IP: Logged Bajsic Bojan Expert Film Handler Posts: 190 From: Ljubljana, Si, Eu Registered: Aug 2008 posted 07-27-2012 03:09 AM                     i guess not, since this is a playback server (without internal storage btw), not a projector.  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 07-27-2012 03:21 AM                     Nothing mentioned for Digital Cinema units but for home based HD units. Feed the stuff from the playback unit into a Geffen scaler to play back for JPEG2000 use.  |  IP: Logged Marnix Koster Film Handler Posts: 12 From: Wehl / Gelderland / Netherlands Registered: Feb 2012 posted 07-27-2012 05:21 AM                     litte bit offtopic, but which geven scaler do you have/use ?  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 07-27-2012 06:47 AM                     JPEG2000? Huh?  |  IP: Logged Ron Funderburg Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 814 From: Chickasha, Oklahoma, USA Registered: Nov 2007 posted 07-27-2012 11:34 AM                        It just outputs from RED files (camera files) straight to either live play or DCI from what I see.  |  IP: Logged Frank Angel Film God Posts: 5305 From: Brooklyn NY USA Registered: Dec 1999 posted 07-28-2012 11:55 AM                        quote: On set, in the lab or at the Cinema Multiplex.... REDRAY™ will be the standard for digital cinema delivery in every environment That's a pretty broad statement that pretty much covers DCI.  |  IP: Logged Ron Funderburg Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 814 From: Chickasha, Oklahoma, USA Registered: Nov 2007 posted 07-29-2012 11:59 AM                        I agree it isn't making a DCP file where it becomes part of a play list. It's just a glorified bluray.  |  IP: Logged
