andrewgray Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Hi, first post.. So how do people review footage on set? I'm currently shooting GH5 1080p footage which is really slow playback on macbook pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Members BTM_Pix Posted June 18, 2018 Super Members Share Posted June 18, 2018 Its a bit of different solution but something like this might be useful. Connect it to the HDMI output of the GH5 and it will wirelessly stream h.264 1080p to connected devices such as laptops, tablets, phones etc for monitoring using an application like VLC. As VLC can also record the incoming stream to the MacBook, this will give you a playback option on the MacBook that doesn't involve swapping the SD card and as it is compressed you will not have any issues playing it back. As its compatible with anything that runs VLC it also means that instead of the MacBook you could use a large screen tablet for play takes back wirelessly straight from the camera. jonpais 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronFilm Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 As well as what BTM_Pix said, the two common approaches which are done (often even both together): Record proxy files (although the GH5 doesn't give that option internally). Have a video recorder located in the video village to automatically record everything, and have available for playback. (could just be say a cheap BMD VA for instance) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
