  • Recommended cuda & decklink drivers

    Posted by Ingo Schulten on September 27, 2011 at 8:22 am

    Hi,
    where can I find the recommended drivers for a system based on Mac OS 10.6.8 / Resolve 8.0.1 running a Quadro FX 4800 and a Decklink Extreme card? On the decklink side I cannot find it.
    Thanks
    Ingo

    The Resolve installer will install the Decklink driver and you should keep that driver and not update it to the latest version, according to Blackmagic. The Resolve installer will also install the CUDA driver and if you go to the OSX System Preferences and click on CUDA the driver version will be displayed there and it will automatically connect to check for an updated CUDA driver.

    Well, I always reinstall Media Desktop 8.5 afterwards because I need it.
    And Resolve runs just fine .

    The way I understand it, most of Resolve’s custom driver has to do with deck control. But I imagine realistically updating doesn’t hurt except for fringe cases.
