Compressed Media Support
 
 
 

Lustre now supports the following compressed file formats:

These compressed media files can be imported into Lustre using the Wiretap Gateway. Ffor Wiretap Gateway installation information, refer to the Lustre 2009 Extension 1 Release Notes. All three file formats can be worked on natively, but you may want to transcode the RED media file to improve playback.

Transcoding RED media allows you to set the initial colour correction, high-level, and output options before transcoding the file into a DPX or to the StoneFS. Once you have established your transcoding settings, you have the choice of saving these settings as a template for future use. For more information about compressed media, transcoding RED media, and the transcoding template, see Compressed Media Support.
