Are you trying to open a wave file? I haven’t been able to open an AIFF in either Linux or Mac…

February 8, 2013 at 5:41 pm in reply to: Resolve Feature Request – Bitrate Choices for H.264 RendersCompression quality and bitrate are two different things. I’m with Paul. User selectable bitrates would be beneficial for preview/reference quicktimes, as well as web deliverables.

Just a quick question… Did you start the project before an upgrade to 9.1? If the answer is yes… If you create a new project and recreate the scenario do you still notice the same problem?
-
I had a similar problem. I had a project started before the upgrade to 9.1. My issue was that when I hit play the color would shift. I didn’t have the problem on a new project. Try toggling some master project settings (I toggled output lut to waveform), save, reboot, and see if it helps. This worked for me.

Is this on a project that existed before you upgraded, or is it a project that you created after the upgrade?
-
Yes. Aware of Thermal/power limitations. I’ve been lurking for quite a while now. 🙂 Not interested in a heavy investment at this point. This question is mostly just curiosity. My main resolve system is Windows based and has 3 580’s, which is more than enough for the stuff I use it for. I picked up a Mac Pro from a friend and was thinking about some affordable upgrades. More of a science experiment than anything. Might move a project over from the Windows box to render out ProRes but that’s about it!

OK, lets say whatever the most current version of Mountain Lion is, unless you can give me a better reason to use a different OS version.

January 13, 2013 at 6:35 pm in reply to: Using Nvidia and Radeon GPUs together for Davinci Resolve?It is possible to mix ATI and Nvidia cards on the same system, if not recommended. I would invest in a cheap Nvidia GUI card though. Just buy a used one on eBay or NewEgg. Also, definitely invest in the nicer CPU. It will really help with RAW decode. Thunderbolt is good although far from necessary on a PC based system. (Remember you can expand your system with PCIe expansion, and RAID via thunderbolt is far from cost effective on a PC based system right now. You would probably be best sticking with the recommended ASUS motherboards for resolve anyways.

I wish they made a Windows version… 🙁

I’m gonna chime in kinda late here. I was actually pretty happy with the material I’ve worked with. A DP friend of mine owns a C300. We went out in the evening and shot some golden hour footage exteriors, and low light material in a subway station. All in Cannon log. I thought the latitude was pretty good. I did notice some fringing on high contrast areas, and a little banding in some highlights, but overall I thought it held up pretty well. (Although I will admit went in with pretty low expectations!) Nothing like any of the horror stories I’ve read here. As for playback I had no problems on a Windows system with 3 GTX 580s (2 for for CUDA, 1 for GUI) & a 6 core Intel CPU. Couldn’t make it slow down no matter how many color correction nodes I threw at it. NR is another story… 😉
