  • Unexpected color flashes on export frames

    Posted by Stephen Kennedy on September 12, 2012 at 6:48 pm

    Hi,

    First time actually rendering out of Davinci Reolve 9 (Lite) and I’m getting all these strange color flashes on quite a few frames here and there.

    Example: frame

    Specs I’m using:
    Macbook Pro 17″
    2.5 Ghz i7
    16 GB 1333 Mhz DDR3 RAM
    Lion 10.7.4
    AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1024 MB

    Is this a hardware issue?
    Anyone else experienced this before? And know how to fix it?!

    Thanks!

    That looks like potential clipping…. If not, I believe I read on here a while back about throttling down the render speed (you can do that on the screen you set your renders on) and that stuff going away.

    Hi Stephan, I had the same problem with the same computer. It is the AMD video card and the Lion version you have. To correct this I upgraded to Mountain Lion and the problem was solved.

    Hope this works for you too

    Good luck

    Hi,

    I posted over on Blackmagic’s own forum too and someone recommended the same thing, so I set about downloading and installing Mountain Lion (which was no mean feat down here in the jungle of Ecuador I can tell you).
    It seems to have completely solved the problem.
    Thanks for your responses.

    Cheers,
    S
