    Does it actually play back material without dropping frames? R11 was such a dud that I have stopped looking at Resolve as an edit solution, only a color corrector when absolutely needed.

    I know it’s beta but it still doesn’t seem too responsive on a new Macbook Pro.

    On my systems it’s much faster, but still not fast enough. However I imagine that it will work well on a higher spec system

    Anyone tried syncing multiple cameras by waveform? I asked about it at NAB and a BM rep said that function was still pretty raw so they weren’t demoing it on the show floor. Hopefully it’s made a lot of headway since then.

    I’m running a 2.5 Ghz i7 MBP with 16Gb RAM, and responsiveness seems OK.
    If I apply heavy grading and go back to editing, it does drop frames, but that could be expected.
    So far like what I see…

    From what I can tell, it is highly dependent of the GPU, so it really
    depends what card you have as far as good real time playback.
    I have been searching through the ‘DaVinci Configuration guide’
    in search of approved cards, and can only find 10 listed ‘approved’ GPU’s.
    It also says that ‘minimum’ GPU RAM for HD is 2 GB, ‘approved’ is 3 GB
    and ‘minimum’ GPU RAM for UHD/4K is 4 GB and ‘approved’ is 8 GB.
    So in theory if you have a card that meets those specs you are good…..

    Really, your fans don’t crank up? What about when you scrub the timeline? Also, do you have any issue with audio when importing different codecs like mxf?

    After layering a couple of more effects and doing some speed changes I get some fan activity.
    Hopefully the main release will be a little more optimised – but this is a lot better than v11.

    Guess I’ll have to wait another year for 13. It’s a pity because its such a beautiful UI. But I need my scrub and JKL to be fast and responsive.
