Activity Forums DaVinci Resolve ATI on V7.1

  • ATI on V7.1

    Posted by Mike Muraya on May 27, 2011 at 8:09 am

    Hi,

    I recently acquired DaVinci Resolve V7.1 and installed it on my imac

    OS: Mac Os X Snow Leopard Version 10.6
    Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 5670 with 512MB of GDDR3 memory

    I also have the wave tangent.

    Every time I try to select a file in the Browse window the software quits.

    Is it my ATI card that is the problem?

    Someone please help.

    Mike

    “Stay a while. stay forever ”
    Or in other words, wait for V8 to pop up, which is a free upgrade for you.
    V7 does not run pn your Ati powered iMac

    [Mike Muraya] “Someone please help.”

    Navigate to the Blackmagic website and locate and download the Resolve Configuration guide. From that you will be able to decide what steps you need to take.

    Resolve is designed to run with primarily nVidia CUDA-based processing, provided by a rather specific hardware configuration. Resolve for Mac can run on a MacBook Pro under some other recommended circumstances. As I understand the situation, version 8 introduces OpenCL, which will allow limited operation on qualified iMac and MacBook Pros, but for now, only the UI can be displayed on the approved ATI 5770 GPU, which is a tower-only prospect.

    Also arriving with the new version will be the two-node plugin for Final Cut.

    not a plugin – a lite version with 2 node and other limitations
    right?

    7.1 will need to have Nvidia card instead.

    You should wait for the 8 to be available that you can upgrade for free.

    That thing would sell like sliced bread.
    I am not a fan of the free 2 node thing.
    But Like Baselight is doing it, a FCP pluging would be amazing.
    And it also would put 80% of us out of the job 😉
    Especially with the global decrease in quality of the average production and pressing budgets.

    No offense, but how do you buy a $1000 dollar piece of software and not look at the system requirements?

    Or crack open the manual to look?

    He have not stated it so lets assume he just missed the config manual.
