Brilliant. I’m going to do a clean OS install for this. What is the recommended OS X (is it 10.7.2?), and what are the recommended GPU drivers and CUDA driver.

Thanks you,

Toby

p.s. Ditto on the audio render and XYZ DCI JPG2000 encoding!

[Toby Tomkins] “What is the recommended OS X (is it 10.7.2?)”

You should consult the configuration guide in the Blackmagic REsolve support page. I would beware of anything including and beyond 6.8. Apple appears to be sowing a lot of poison pills in their iOS now.

People seem to think this is all you need to do to create DCP packages. Wrong.

OSX 10.7.2 is the latest supported OS. It seems to work well so far – no known issues.
