Great news Robbie. What model cubic did you go with? I’ve been begging for more gpu power. the rack mount gpu monster looks like fun. How many fps or you getting with 4k dpx frames?

Yes. Grab still, highlight, right click, display node graph, drag the node you want to the end of the node tree and drop it on the link line. Done.

Joshua,
Thanks so much for the info.. Due to the amount of sata drive failures I have experienced and the great deal I got on my 2 chassis loaded with fibre I have opted to run fibre.
I’m aware cal digit is great product. Loving the pcie connection. Unfortunately well beyond what I am going to spend on my mac resolve home science project. I’m not sure if you are aware but I use the linex version at the office every daily. I built my home system to see if I could and how it really performs.. I’m currently running 32 10k fibre drives, dual link through an 8gb atto card. As far as I can tell my raid is running much faster than the mac resolve can utilize. When and if I ever run out of bandwidth I will consider a faster option or just add a another 32 drives. 🙂
By that time I am hoping to have a big fat chunk of solid state storage for my 4k stereo playback.

This sounds very similar to the issue I had about 4 months ago during my first feature on the mac resolve. I really thought the bug was fixed.
If you have any questions about dpx and “start recording” shoot me an email off the forum and I will help you out.

Sorry I never got it working as it should using the resolve. The rocketraid card is living in my old 07 mac pro. I jumped to fibre for the resolve and haven’t looked back.

It tied several block sizes on the rocket raid set up and now having it working in my 07 8 core mac pro.. (my old color box) It now serves as an extra fcp, lightroom, and internet box.
I did not see a huge difference using the different sector size. I have not used it on my 6 year old pc workstation (hp xw8200).. I am running dual link scsi u320 set up on that system.. I get real time playback of 2k dpx frames without issues on my old, old pc.
Hook that same pc up to the solid state storage I am testing and I get real time 4k playback on that same old pc.

Warren I really hope they continue to support the big guys. One of my biggest fears is, this is an End Of Life Product. Will this be final touch, color all over again.. Support completely dumped when mac purchased it.. I REALLY HOPE NOT. For that reason I am learning the base light and getting familiar once again with my old friend the Lustre and even looking at the power of nucoda.
The resolve stop start? Not a big deal at all. I still use it a work.. If you watch what it does. A start does exactly what the stop does. It was really a unnecessary function that I would guess was put in after the fact to deal with a problem. The difference I see, and correct me if i’m wrong, is the new versions are built with completely off the shelf product.. No specifically designed hardware like the past versions.
The code has come along way due to the high end user creating a giant list of needed functions and documented problems. This was done in a professional environment and checked by davinci support. The support team could really see the issues and how the system is configured. I don’t know how its going to work with everyone trying everything and no real support in place..
As far as dpx is concerned I have found the file based workflow the best of the best.. If i have one bad frame I send one fixed frame.. Not a complete re-render of the entire qt file..
My emails and calls to davinci are not being answered so I am being forced to post on the forum in hopes someone is reading. I do this all for the love of the craft and am got getting paid in any way..
Resolve is my tool of choice for now. I love it.. We will see what the future brings.
