A couple questions/thoughts, what is the base monitor that everyone uses for their artists? Has anyone done color comparisons they would like to share? What are everyone's thoughts on 1920x1200 vs. 1920x1080 monitors. The Majority of our Monitors are Dell's ( U2410's) with some Eizo Sprinkled in. As the Dell monitors begin to die out and our move to 100% PCoIP across both facilities I was looking into the possibility of using monitors from LG and Samsung as well as Viewsonic which are all 23-24" and have the tera2 portals built in. We have some of the first Samsung PCoIP monitors and they work well for our front desk etc..but I never stuck a meter on them to test..for color accuracy. Here are some of the latest offerings of Monitors with built in PCoIP. after the color hurdle. Does havig the extra vertical pixels matter that much will artists riot? For 3D work they were using 1920x1080 monitors and did not hear much complaint..

| Hi, I've noticed the USB are flipped between the Mac and a PC. I also notice that due to GFX card orientation, the monitor connectors are flipped as well. Any one notice further connectors at odds with one another between the two step children? - Brian Sent from my stupid POS iPhone on the craptaculous AT&T network.

If you are using desktop drives in a NAS environment, you may be interested in reading this: It seems that for those guys, even though Seagate drives are failing at a much higher rate than Hitachi, they still prefer Seagate since they buy so many of them and price is a big issue. If you're just putting together a 12 drive array and don't want to be swapping out drives all the time, looks like HGST might be a better bet. JF |

Hi Have anyone set up the render nodes for optical flares nuke plugin? The instructions are sparse to say the least and communicating with them takes forever as they are in another timezone. We received a lic file that i pointed to withOPTICAL_FLARES_LICENSE_PATH and we received some special .so that i added to the NUKE_PATH but it won't pick up any license. It just crashes on trying to create X11 dialog which I guess is where it want's you to copy your hardware id if using the gui version and not finding a license. Anyone got it working? Cheers, |
