The storage we work off of for editorial is dual ethernet also, and grading speed is pretty good, but the volumes have so many directories with so many files that if I try and load an XML it will take forever… Try manually loading the material into the media pool then loading your xml.
From what I’ve seen, DaVinci does;t like to chew through huge edit volumes… it likes tight small little volumes that are super organized for the project at hand… not to imply your edit volume is disorganized, it is just organized for a different purpose.

If it continues to be glitchy you could alway backup the entire database… might be over kill, but it would be better than nothing.

I always do this in the AJA control panel when onlining, for bug clearance…. It’s proved time and time again to be super helpful.
I wish BMD would take a stronger look at some of the things their competition are/have been doing….

I haven’t had a need for it since switching form AJA to BMD, but could you not create the file (say pang w/ alpha) and put it over the image via DS keyer? Or is that another feature lost by having to use Decklink?
That way it would never impact your Resolve processing… and it would be super easy to turn on and off….

What kind of problems are you having with the Harris? Which one are you using? I’ve run a ton of shows through various DL 860’s and never had a problem, that was introduced by the legalizer… on shows coming from FCP/Color/DaVinci…

8.2 official, non beta, was rolled out earlier this week…. maybe that will cure what ails you?

How does scopebox compare to ultrascopes?

Margus, you’re running a Q4000 and GTX 470 inside your Mac Pro?

If you locate the corrupted media, I have found that the issue tends to be a corrupt “clip” in FCP. Not necessarily the actual media. So be for you try and recreate the media from tape, or wherever it came from, try reimporting, reconnecting won’t fix it because the actual FCP “clip/pointer/alias” is broken, and over cut it.
Also, as far as locating the bad frame… If you know about what % it consistently crashes at, then you can change the TC display to be frames (right click a TC field in Canvas, select frames) and you can get a pretty good approximation by figuring the percentage of the frame count.
Another thing to look for, if you have stills in you timeline, any still that is larger than 3.5k in either direction will usually cause FCP to crap out.

Except you are expecting a certain result without fully complying with how the software wants to work.
As Andy mentioned, it’s more sup rising that you got media to begin with… Why don’t you just add the volumes to DaVinci? That way you don’t have to worry about it…
