R3d files won’t open correctly in Nuke 6 v2

Hello again,

I’ve just received some r3d footage from a client and it is the first time I have ever worked with this format so I am a complete noob with this. Now from what i have seen Nuke works with RED natively so I thought it would be as easy as 123 to get it working. I bring in the R3d file but the strange thing upon the import in the read node is that on the preview window it says it is only 640 x 480 resolution and only has one frame. And when i connect it to the viewer it simply states "Error: Reader did not set the bounding box." But when I have read this in REDCINE the file plays back fine at full resolution and can be converted to dpx etc. However I believe my client wants the footage to stay as R3d footage for the colourist, and from what I can see REDCINE cant convert dpx back to r3d. So where on earth do I go from here? Is there a setting that I am missing because I have tried almost all the combinations in project settings, but the file simply refuses any play back. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Oh and I am also running on windows 7 64 bit if that’s any help towards what the problem might be.

Thanks in advance!
