Since no one has put this yet: Any word on 10.8 compatibility?

[Yoram Tal]

As we are waiting for answer. On the last big updated I got a bricked Resolve for a week. Don’t upgrade until blackmagic says it’s ok.

I don’t know what the value proposition is that makes you want to upgrade a working system. But for what it’s worth 8.2.2 is supposed to be Mountain Lion compatible.

had to reinstall resolve 8.2.2 here as my database dissapeared and also tangent hub, but all good now…

We are starting to get trouble reports from adventurous users who could not wait to install Mountain Lion.

I would strongly suggest before updating to Mountain Lion, that you Backup your Resolve database FIRST, using the Backup button in the Database Manager window accessed on the user login screen.

Also, AFTER you have updated to Mountain Lion, you should reinstall the Resolve 8.2.2 code. Resolve 8.2.2 is the only version recommended for use with Mountain Lion.

yeah… gotta get that additional icloud functionality on my resolve system! Snow Leopard is actually working great for me.. call me old fashioned I guess.

I just rendered a whole feature on Mountain Lion .
Its an NTSC documentary and it renders at 79 fps from DPX 720×480 to ProRes 4444.
Only thing I had to do was updating the CUDA to 5.0.17
