Can you move the Project/Events on a different drive or local drive?
Make sure you disconnect the drive the original data resides in.
Ive had this problem where it gets confused since I tend to move data around across 5 drives here and there.
Some even duplicated.
Yep playing with fire 😛

Joshua this is normal in this medium. It doesnt just stop with FCPX. We get this with almost every Adobe/Avid upgrade.
You just get thick skinned after a few years 😛

On this subject is it safe that I have my GPU sharing with DeckLink and RED ROCKET card in the CUBIX?
I did the research and was told it was okay to do this.
Just ordered two more Quadro’s to fill that baby up 🙂

Thanks Job. I tested it again with the HBA disconnected.
Still no go. You cant even see the Video Output option in Avid.
At least on my Intensity Pro setup you can access the BM card from Video Output.
I think Id have to remove the HBA card and re-install the BM drivers again.
Might have to rethink this whole thing.
I just want to use one option on that Avid/Resolve system.
The problem too is the RED card.
Damn Flanders only has two SDI ports 😛

Ill try and answer some (due to workload here).
I take all GoPro files and Optimize using FCPX.
I wouldnt say its fool-proof cause Ive heard others having issues here and there.
If you really have to, use Compressor and output to ProRes HQ.
Now to move the project, its best to be on an external drive drive this way your Final Cut Pro Events and Final Cut Pro Projects are intact.
Once you open FCPX with that external attached, the projects will populate in the Projects list within FCPX.
If you’re not using an external, I wouldnt suggest any other option to moving your files.
Burning on a DVD or BD-ROM is the other options but dependent on your project/events size.
Splitting it up on multiple DVDs is a pain 😛
You will find both folders in your Documents folder if you’re not using an external drive.

I dont think there is a way with Resolve.
Only the Scopes can be moved to a second monitor.
Maybe in future upgrades.

I do a ton of GoPro, Drift and Contour work and have never ran into any problem clips for final export.
Double-check if the GoPro clips are already converted to ProRes.
Over the last year, this seems to be the culprit with most problems concerning final export with FCPX.
Also if you have access to a different Mac, can you try and export from there?
What export option are you using?

[Eric Santiago]

Haha buyer beware I guess.
It has to be an old link but still at Resolve section to date.
What do you use for Cuda testing?
Is there an app that can test that or basically just node test in Resolve?

[Eric Santiago]

Not sure but here is the link:

And the actual copy:

Which is the fastest Nvidia Card for DaVinci Resolve?
DaVinci Resolve uses CUDA technology for real time processing, and so typically an Nvidia GPU with more CUDA cores, will result in faster performance.
Currently the Nvidia Quadro FX 4800 card provides the best performance in a 1 GPU DaVinci Resolve system.

I dont want to waste any downtime on my AE box just to find out there is no major advantage.

Thanks Job!
Well that puts the Nitris DX to storage.
