Vegas11/CineForm black frames -- positive news.
Glenn, There was definitely a CineForm particular fix in Vegas and CineForm components to make 11 much better, such that we have no reproducible cases of this under Vegas 11. All, If what TheRhino suggests is true, and that multiple codecs are still showing this problem, that might be again out of our hands. Yet, I and most other users do not see this. I spoke with Sony Vegas engineering at NAB on this very issue, neither group are seeing this issue. If you have a project and clip(s) that have this problem, share it with the Sony and CineForm support teams so we can get to bottom of this. Thanks, David

Thanks Mike. I tried it out, 4k 60p is quite the data rate (150MB/s in CineForm High quality.) Not a CPU issue for data, but a disk bandwidth. At medium quality at 24p the datarate is the far more managable 40 MB/s.

The download was password protected for me. Try to get a sample as building a quad-HD combiner into a CineForm file shouldn't be too hard.

Lets us know, it seems you have a project that causes a failure we can't reproduce here. Hopefully 595 did fix it.

Just is discovered it work with Chrome and Firefox, but not Opera. Try a different browsers. I have asked why it is browser sensitive.

I wasn't aware, so I reported it now. Always send this type of enquiry directly to support@cineform.com , this forum doesn't give notifications so I may never see some posts intended for me.

NeoScene 5.6.2 is required. It is a free update. Direct link : http://software.gopro.com/PC/NeoScenev562b340-120131.zip If black persists after upgrading have Jake in CineForm support do a remote login and he willl determine what components aren't updating correctly.

I don't understand why your PC is not seeing the version server. Here is the direct link for the free CineForm Studio http://software.gopro.com/PC/GoProCineFormStudioPC-1.1.2.100.zip

The new version is report in the 'C' icon in the system tray. Seems the version via gopro.com is still pointing to the previous release -- install that and see the update is the system tray.

All data shows the black frame issue are solved, but you must run the latest Vegas 11 and lastest CineForm decoders (at least v7.6.2 of the decoder -- which ships with NeoScene 5.6.2 and CineForm Studio ??? 1.1.2.) There was a fault, and it has been clearly fixed, we haven't looped demanding sequences that failed in minutes for days. You may need a reboot between the install of the new components -- something an application hang on the old decoder, preventing a clean update (rare.) The components from CineForm that must at least v5.6.2 are C:\Program Files (x86)\CineForm\Tools\CFHDDecoder.dll C:\Program Files (x86)\CineForm\Tools\CFHDDecoder64.dll Right click on these are select properties to see the version under Details.

Yes it did. The free version should notify you of the update, Studio Premium or Pro will need to be download again (the new version with notify you on updates like the base Studio.) Version 1.1.2.100 across the line has all the latest decoders.

No need to run custom patches, all the current released software: NeoScene 5.6.2 and CineForm Studio Premium/Professional 1.1.2, along with the latest Vegas should not have this problem. Close all your apps, uninstall old CineForm tools, install the latest CineForm and Vegas conponents.

No, we just not expect a version 6 of NeoScene, but we have enhanced it add the new build will be out this week (version 5.6.2 I believe.)

David17, I expect you are still not running the new stuff, or you have a different issue, as the fault was clearly understood and addressed. Sometime file locks prevent the newer components from being installed. So reboot, install the new decoders, install the new Vegas (if you haven't ready) and it should be fine.

Sorry, I don't understand the question. NeoScene and GoPro CineForm Studio can be used together. Currently as NeoScene is the older of the two utilities install the new software last. We will have a new NeoScene build sometime next week.

JJK & all NeoScene users, The GoPro CineForm Studio (free) version is an awesome addition to your workflow. NeoScene is codec and basic conversion utility only for a good range of camera, whereas Studio convers only MP4/MOV H.264 files yet it adds real-time image corrections (Color, white-balance, reframing and 3D for GoPro HD cameras.) So NeoScene + Studio get the the sum of both. While this is not all the way toward a Premium license, it is a nice first step.

There should be no Black frame now, but both the latest Vegas and the latest CineForm components fix a number of issues. The new GoPro CineForm Studio Premium and Profession tools have these fixes (read more on new tools here http://www.studiodaily.com/main/news/13637.html.) We will be update NeoScene and the decoder only package next week to have these fixes. You can new the new decoders now if you are not running Studio Premium or Professional: software.gopro.com.s3.amazonaws.com/beta/NewDecoder762b618.zip?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAJ2OHNE77HOUYJB6A&Expires=1328657233&Signature=JmfG/Q2vwWeyx/2QlBak7hv%2B3Cw%3D To install: Close any application that might be using CineForm files. Unzip and copy over the older decoders here: C:\Program Files (x86)\CineForm\Tools (64-bit systems) or C:\Program Files\CineForm\Tools (32-bit systems.) The two files are CFHDDecoder.dll and CFHDDecoder64.dll and they will have a Jan 5th, 2012 build date. If the DLLs are in use (can't copy over them) rename them like to CFHDDecoderOld.dll and now the new files can be copied.

New versions of NewScene and the free GoPro CineForm Studio will be out it about a week. We also intend to revise the old NeoPlayer for a decoder only install.

USB 3 should work fine, nothing better than SATA or eSATA connected though.

JVC Handheld 4K game changer? Wow!
At CineForm, we are going to love this and similar cameras. A modern single processor Intel Sany Bridge i7 can play 4K 4:2:2 at full res 70+fps, using the CineForm codec. At CES Sony used a PC and a CineForm encoding of the new Spiderman trialer to show off their new $25K "home" 4K projector. So I expect the workflow will be a transcode then a simple edit just as you do for 1080p. 4K YUV CineForm would be around 40MB/s (24p), only double that of the JVC source data rate, yet vastly easier to work with. 40MB/s will play off today's laptop drives. For 60p playback you may need a RAID (100MB/s), but 60p should be for slowmotion anyway (so only 40MB/s required). While full 4K playback and presentation will still initially be rare, most editing with only decode to 2K or even 1K, which will be a fast as HD/SD are now.

Vegas uses a grey black level for display (8-bit RGB 16,16,16), this is not very common. FCP, Premiere, AVID etc, display black at 0,0,0, even if the internal black representation is 7.5IRE or equivalent. This causes user issues if they are not aware, when switch between NLEs and tools, but it is not a codec issue..

1. I don't know about Vegas 10, try it. 2. Vegas has a black level behavior that is unique, we encode what we are sent.
