RED digital cameras record RAW media that is compressed using a proprietary codec. These RED media files require a computational-intensive debayering process to transcode to a file format that can be read by Flame.

If you are importing RED media files, you can use WiretapCentral to set up RED media transcoding jobs. These jobs output RGB image sequences to a location that is accessible to Flame.

To import a RED media file:

1. From the Library menu, click Import Image and select a destination reel.
2. From the File Format box, select the RED image type.

   
   

   The WiretapCentral button appears and the Load button is greyed out.

3. Click the WiretapCentral button.

   WiretapCentral opens the Import panel in a browser window. Use it to decode your RED media to a format that is readable in Flame.

   See the WiretapCentral User Guide.
