  • Davinci Resolve Live mode strange colors

    Posted by Maragarita Steffenson on May 2, 2017 at 9:18 am

    Hello Creative People!
    we are trying to use Davinci Resolve for Live colorgrading, but we are getting really odd colors (rainbow colors or like an encrypted look) .
    Everything works fine in capture mode (Media tab), however when we go to live mode (COLOR tab) it begins to act strange.

    We are using davinci resolve 12.5 studio (paid version);
    We have DeckLink 4k Extreme 12g capture card.
    We are using HDMI both for input and output.
    We updated to the latest drivers.
    We tried different input sources – no luck, the same issue.

    Please take a look at the attached screenshot, the top image is the MEDIA tab, the middle is COLOR and at the bottom the settings.

    What might be causing this?
    Thanks in advance

    I expect your GPU is under powered.

    Hi , that doesn’t seem to be the issue

    What is the source material? A lot could depend on your specific settings, but the files should look the same on the Edit page as they do on the Color page.
