Try reducing the amount to 60-70% and even further to 30-50%.
By default, the amount of memory there is set to 100%. Restart FCP and go to its menu Preferences >System Settings >Memory & Cache >Application. If you receive an error message where Neat Video complains about not being able to receive a memory block from the host application or from OSX, please try the following workaround.
Can I fix this with memory allocation or can I get a demo version of v3 for Mac OFX?įCP 7 and FCP 6: these 32-bit versions of FCP often experience memory-related problems caused by the general limitation of the 32-bit achitecture. However since v4 didn't work even in HD in FCP I figure that may again just be a limitation of my computer or how much memory is allocated. I would like to try it in Resolve at UHD but the v4 demo just froze up. Maybe useable in a pinch though not for long. I used only the fine frequency all the way up to 250% with conservative turned off.Īt 100% push in I was pressing my luck and added about 85% medium frequency.
For the full sized shot it looked quite useable and even for the 50% punch-in it looked useable to me at least on my 24" Apple monitor. The quality of the sharpening is way way better than anything I could get using other sharpening tools. Is there a way to increase memory allotment for v4 ? The crash said Neat needed more memory but I noticed on your website that it could be a limitation of my computer so I just went to v3. I did find the sharpening tools in V4 but it crashed the computer so I went back to V3 and that worked fine. I put the in Final Cut 7 and applied Neat video.
Well I spent the better part of the day just learning how to get Resolve to work today but I was finally able to download Pro res HD files from the UHD original that punched in 50% and 100% from the original shot.
I love Neat video but it is a complicated tool. is edge smoothing something that might be useful? In what situation should I try adding chrominance sharpening in addition to luminance? Should I start with luminance only and fine detail and keep increasing that slider only to maximum before trying the medium or low, or should I try adding some med or low much earlier? I'm guessing I should always enable avoid over-sharpening. I am interested above all in the singers face face: Do you have any advice as to how to proceed with the sharpening tools. How large a portion is that and can I position it where I want ?ģ.
Assuming I find them, do I understand the demo rules correctly that I can use the demo in 4K but it will add a watermark, and only clean/sharpen a portion of the image? I am interested mainly in a singer who is in the middle of a frame that covers a WS shot of a 5 piece band.ġ - When I tried it in FCP7 last night using v4 I couldn't find the sharpening adjustments so I went back to an earlier version. I own Neat v4 for Final Cut 7 but that doesn't handle 4K so I am hoping to try it in Resolve 12.5. I'm wanting to test whether some 4K footage that was shot a little soft ( mixed the focus mark) can be saved by Neat which I can then recommend to the client.
