An iMac of 2012 will be able to deal with Panasonic GH4 UHD first?

Hello.

I edited a 13 4K min (technically UHD I guess) project just before Christmas and while initially I me loving UHD retouching in a 1080 p timeline and open all the cropping options dealing, near the Middle, he so painful that I had to transcode to ProRes 1080 p.

I live crashing all the time - the first and complete lock of the ups, partial system crashing - for example where the first seemed ok but just would not play the timeline and a lot of pain to export when trying to export anything would fail, even through the usual bugs like nesting sequences. And when it worked it was laggy as anything when playing, even at 1/4 of quality.

So, before my next plan of attack which was to make a clean start complete and any reinstall, I thought that I could better check if the general consensus was that an end iMac of 2012 "should" be able to deal with GH4 flavored 4 k/UHD at all? Or I wait too long?

I hear all these people who claim to play 9 sequences of chicken Super RED k on their Mbps, so shouldn't Panasonic GH4 jobs a little better? (may contain inaccuracies and hype)

The machine is a 2012 end iMac, 3.4 GHz i7, 32 GB of Ram, NVIDIA GTX 680MX 2GB, running the most recent 2014 CC day and OSX 10.9.5. System drive is SSD and media is stored on an SSD via thunderbolt. Also launch a Matrox MX02LE via thunderbolt to the fire of the video to a reference monitor. As well as the first, I have filmconvert, Colorista II, which I use on a regular basis, as well as some that I sometimes crack as red giant universe, looks, Mojo and Denoiser 2. Just in case, those who can break just by hanging out regardless of their use.

All drivers updated OSX probably the only thing that is not. Cuda to CL switching open doesn't make much difference.

All opinions, ideas, your most appreciated comments.

Thank you!

I had the same problems with the 4 k (.mp4 and .mov) directly from the GH4.  Grinds to a halt on my MBP 2014 13 "with 16 GB and i7 (even at 1/4 and 1/8 resolution).  Have used a utility called EditReady to transcode the files to pro-res 4 k (UHD), which is fast enough, and surprisingly these files fly while editing in first CC 2014 - very smooth editing.  On my PC i7, while files always struggle a bit, this kind of work and I can put up with it.  SpeedGrade does much to UHD, but filmed in 1080 p fine work.

On my Mac, I just downloaded the demo of FCP X (my CC membership is coming soon and not looking forward to my contract coming to an end, am looking for alternatives) and I must say, it blew my mind is just how smooth editing with GH4 k 4 files in native mode, not even generate proxy or optimize the files. Worked perfectly, and the final encoding of the timeline shows that it really works out 4 k files.

So whereas initially, I thought that my MBP was fueled when I started to edit files GH4, I came to the conclusion that the first CC does not handle files as he could.  Given when transcoding to Prores 422 and quadrupling the size of the file, the first worked perfectly with it.  When you use native files in FCP X, they worked too perfectly smooth.  Cannot conclude native GH4 don't like CC 4 k.  I hope this is sorted in the next version, otherwise I am leaving definitely!

  • iMac 5K (2016) will not all wake up with connected external display

    I have an iMac 27 "5K nine. My first Mac from Windows - it was a world of frustration and then most of the things I re-learned or found of alternatives for, I have a major problem of the iMac not wake from sleep. It took days to change things and we cut the field down to discover is an external monitor at the origin of the problem.

    I have a LG 23MP75 IPS monitor hooked up to 90 degrees. This is a debugging, screen bash and the cat. So I develop sites on the main iMac screen in the Sublime editor and also check the sites in the browser, and then on the external I Inspector chrome, terminal and Skype/cat stuff. When the device is connected, it works well, no problems. If she goes to sleep for a short period of time like 30 minutes or less, he wakes up. If he goes into a deep sleep (hibernation?), he don't wake. Sometimes holding the key ctrl + p + r, cmd and press work but mostly not, usually I have to pull on the power cord! for a restart. Heart-wrenching. The only solution at the present time it unplug the HDMI until I go home every day.

    The external monitor is connected through a HDMI cable that is routed into an 'active' HDMI mini-Display port adapter. I was told that the adapter is active is important after I had one active and bought assets to try to solve this problem. I read that the removal of the hibernation file may contribute to allow OS x to replace but I opened it instead and it is empty so not corrupt (sudo rm/var/vm/drag).

    If I stop and restart, the login screen is badly laid out, it has mirrored screen not extended display which is how it is implemented. See the images to compare. This makes me wonder if part of the problem is OSX being unhappy with the configuration of the monitor outside being connected?

    Here is the screen set up the config so you can see that there is nothing out of the ordinary:

    There is no strange configuration, the machine was brand new from Apple themselves, by default on the box, no restoration or something like that as I'm new to Mac.

    Can anyone offer any suggestions to fix the problem so I didn't either unplug the cable or the stop (which brings me to see the connection in horrible mirror every morning)? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You have 90 days of free telephone support, AppleCare, called Apple to discuss and see what solution they have? If you weren't aware that you had 90 days of support AppleCare please click on http://www.apple.com/support/complimentary/. In addition, if you haven't already, I highly recommend buying AppleCare, that extend the warranty to 3 years and 3 years of phone to provide support. If your machine ever needs repair (lets hope he never does) AppleCare pays for itself almost always on the first incident.

  • Serious problems iMac (late 2012)

    I have an iMac (end of 2012), who has had the most serious problems lately. For about a month, he would often see the spinning beach-ball-of-death for even the simplest of actions. As of today, however, it has gotten worse about 1,000 times. Now, every time I turn on the computer, with nothing connected except for the mouse and keyboard, it starts up fine, and then, whenever I try to do something, the SBBOD appears and stays there for about two minutes before the simple action is completed. Just tonight (I'm typing this from my other computer), what was going on, and then the Finder menu bar has disappeared, replaced by a black bar. The next thing I knew, the screen went black. Fearing for the life of my computer, I pulled the plug. Everything is saved to a hard drive G, but I disconnected earlier today. I've not turned the computer back since. I used to have the famous "Mackeeper," installed, but I made sure to remove every vestige of it. I'm afraid that this iMac may be either raise a viral infection serious, or as the CPU itself is a failure. I have installed Avast, but I checked a few days there are viruses, and there is no infection. I have not recently installed anything that could provoke such a question. It is not protected by the Applecare more. Should I consider at the Apple Store in any case?

    Where should I go from here, now?

    Should I consider at the Apple Store in any case?

    Yes. You're certainly dealing with a disc or any other fault of hardware failure. See also below.

    "Avast" is the worst of the whole miserable lot of commercial products 'security' for the Mac. Not only it fails to protect you against any real danger, it can send data of a personal nature (e.g. historical web navigation and content e-mail messages) back to the developer without your knowledge, give false alarms, destabilize and slow down the computer, you expose a network attack and corrupt the network settings and permissions of files in your home folder. Removing it can not repair all the damage.

    Some versions of the product also inject advertising into web pages. In short, apart from the fine print of the license, Avast is not malware and is probably worse than any malware known now in circulation.

    Please back up all data and then remove Avast in accordance with the instructionsof the developer. Turn it back on. Never install a software "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" again.

    If you have tried to remove Avast by dragging an application to the trash, you need to reinstall, and then follow the link above.

    NoScript is essential. Windows 7 firewall is good. For antivirus, etc., I'm under maximum security from Trend Micro. The price is high, but it usually substantial discounts are available. Some ISPs now offer free versions of Norton or other software, but I don't know about Time Warner.
