You didn’t say what caused this to start?

Can you try this manual uninstall procedure? Let us know if you get any error along the way.

First run the davinci uninstaller.

Then

i) Stop the server.
sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.edb.launchd.postgresql-8.4.plist

ii) Remove the plist file
sudo rm -f /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.edb.launchd.postgresql-8.4.plist

iii) Remove the Applications Menu.
sudo rm -f “/Applications/PostgreSQL 8.4”

iv) Remove the installation directory
sudo rm -rf /Library/PostgreSQL/8.4

v) Remove the ‘postgres’ user
sudo dscl . delete /Users/postgres

vi) Remove the ini file
sudo rm -f /etc/postgres-reg.ini

Then rerun the davinci installer.

Render to your target frame size. The video out will scale as needed.

Might just want to get the ultrastudio instead so you have hdsdi.

It would run spectacularly. It’s only $99 and you can get a free trial.

Have you checked out scopebox? It’s got that and tons more, plus works with any old decklink card and has broad hardware support.

Hi Yannick,

Sorry to hear you’re having this issue. Was there an event that lead to this starting? Are you able to verify PostgreSQL is installed and running? Do you have a firewall enabled?

Hmmm, only in so much as you’re having fewer bits representing the viable image. For most thing I suppose this wouldn’t be a major problem.

A layer mixer node allows you combine nodes with priority. The input at the bottom is prioritized over those at the top. So you feed your background window into the top input on the node, then the foreground into the next one down, and so on.

I think this can be applied to both your questions.

[Chris Jones] “Question 1:

Is there a way to retain the Frame Numbers in the meta data?”

No, but the TC as metadata is all you need in order to conform back to the DPX, frame number is irrelevant ( & relative) as the TC itself is embedded in both the QT and the DPX. The frame number in the QT is counted by the application as frames from the beginning of the clip. So wherever the clip starts that’s where the count starts.

Don’t know about question 2.
