MC Color support? Mine sucks.

Actually the 2700 application isn’t full film master, but more of a dailies tool. The full film master is somewhat more.

Lets get this thread back to the issue Bryan asked about..
Eucontrol doesn’t work as needed with resolve with some configuration.
It will be nice to have Black Magic and Avid communicate with each other about this and release a working driver that support all latest OS (10.8.5 , 10.9.2-4) and resolve version 10 & 11 on Mac Pro from 3.1 to 6.1
(I also want to win the lottery)
Since BM released DaVinci resolve as a free version, it doesn’t really matter how low or better another product is. The reality in the market is that production companies not spending the money on the full version and with TB connections not even on the high end Decklink devices.

I can tell you that Eucontrol 3.1.2 and Resolve 10 will work under OSX 10.9.2. Beyond that, it’s a crapshoot.

One key, BTW: watch out for the Mac Firewall settings under System Prefs -> Security & Privacy. You have to be very careful that both MC Color and Resolve can get through the firewall to talk to each other. The panel has to be up and Eucon has to be running, then you have to make sure Eucon is talking to both the panel and can find the Mac before you launch Resolve. You can “lock” MC Color to Resolve once everything is set, and it’ll stay there even if you momentarily switch to another application.

I personally think a lot of the MC Color bugginess lies with Avid’s reliance on Ethernet, but that’s me. I previously had trouble with Avid/Digidesign Pro Tools and ethernet connections for various audio controllers, so this kind of thing has been flakey before. It’s very telling to me that the Tangent Wave, Tangent Elements, and BMD daVinci panels all use USB, which I think is a simpler, more reliable connection.

Once MC Color is up, it’ll stay going for days and days. But don’t sleep the computer. I think that goes for any mission-critical application anyway.
