This setting is irrelevant when slimRAW is outputting in an empty folder. Such files can be skipped or overwritten. Use the Existing files policy radio buttons to set how slimRAW should handle any source filenames already existing at the output location. This option also enables slimRAW to serve as a general purpose copy/offload utility which can be used to copy any data with checksums generation and verification (see below for checksums functionality), and not just DNG/CinemaDNG raw files. Select the Copy non-DNG files option to have slimRAW copy any non-DNG files in the input folder(s), like audio or external metadata files, to the output location. In most cases you will probably want to leave this option selected. The folder tree structure will be recreated at the output folder. This is a Bayer mosaic to Bayer mosaic downscale so aliasing/moire can be introduced in fine patterns.Ĭheck the Process subfolders checkbox to enable recursive processing of any subfolders in the selected input folder. Using this option can lead to tremendous disk space gains, as well as largely reduced CPU and GPU power requirements in post production while preserving a fully raw workflow, but at the obvious expense of resolution. But it can also be used for reducing the excessive resolution of timelapse material and for the general reduction of high resolution footage to more manageable sizes when planning deliveries at 1080p/2K. The main intent of this functionality is generating raw proxies (more on CinemaDNG raw proxies here). For example, this option will produce 2K CinemaDNG from 4K CinemaDNG, 2.3K from 4.6K and so on. Use the Downscale 2X option to produce CinemaDNG output at half the original resolution. It is possible that Adobe might expand support to the full CinemaDNG specification in the future, in which case files created without selecting this option might work with future editions of Adobe CC. If you don't plan to import the losslessly compressed raw video in Adobe Premiere Pro CC or Adobe SpeedGrade CC you can leave this option unchecked. This does not concern Adobe products using Adobe Camera Raw to import CinemaDNG footage (Adobe After Effects, Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom). Checking this option ensures the compressed output from slimRAW is compatible with these two applications but will trade off a little bit of compression. As of November 2016 support for losslessly compressed CinemaDNG is incomplete in Adobe Premiere Pro CC and Adobe SpeedGrade CC. Would mean that the target compression ratio cannot be met.Ĭheck the Premiere CC compatibility option to have slimRAW create losslessly compressed CinemaDNG files compatible with Adobe Premiere Pro CC and Adobe SpeedGrade CC. If it is ticked, slimRAW will take extra care of output image quality even if this If one of the lossy compression modes is selected, a Prioritize quality over rate checkbox is enabled. Check the FAQ for a detailed list of compatible software. Note that while losslessly compressed CinemaDNG is widely supported by video production applications, lossy compression support is more limited. There is a choice of lossless and lossy compression modes. Use the Compression mode radio buttons to select the type of compression performed by slimRAW. You can always delete originals at a later time. It might not be wise to overwrite important video data. If you select the same folder for input and output slimRAW will ask for confirmation as this will overwrite the original files during processing. You will need to select the Enable second output checkbox for this. slimRAW can output to two locations simultaneously. buttons to select the folder containing source footage and one or two folders to save the output into. The following screenshots use the Windows version for illustration but the macOS version has the same controls organized in the same layout. Tip: Most UI controls will display tooltips with a short explanation of the control's function when you roll your mouse over them.
