December 1, 2012 at 2:45 am in reply to: lag updating preview on 2011 macbook pro resolve 9.04Hi Roger, there is processing latency between the ui viewer and the grading monitor but you may be experiencing more than the normal lag due to the relatively low GPU power in the MBP. It’s the same for other restricted GPU systems, when Resolve can’t process the grades in real time and you can see this when in play and the red GPU indication is on, the GPU buffer becomes very busy and there is a lag between adjusting the ui and the viewer screen change. You won’t see this on the more powerful systems or at lower resolutions.
One thing you can try, set your input sizing to bilinear and monitoring to 8 bit. You could then also try a 720p timeline for the grade and reset the timeline res to HD for render.

November 30, 2012 at 1:33 am in reply to: Resolve Disk IO performance is sluggish compared to Scratch How to ImproveHi Toby, as a test, what does the BMD speed test report for your disk speed.
Can you set your timeline fps to 48 and play a 2K stream of dpx. This should indicate the frame rate from disk and through the gpu.
Remember that Resolve uses the GPU for image scaling so if you have a 4k source but monitor in HD, scaling is being performed.. thus GPU used. Comparisons of CPU usage are pointless… they are different apps with quite different processes.
Its seems you have not configured the system as per our config guides. Using a single shared GPU for mono is restrictive let alone for stereo. Also slot position for GPUs is important… the UI and processing GPUs should be in x16 slots that don’t share bw with other slots.
Resolve software scales to 8 GPUs on linux, 4 on Windows and 3 on Mac, we have many customers using these configs for stereo but I couldn’t say I know of one that has a single GPU for more than mono 2K use. Of course you can preview with a single, and this works in laptop as well but its not as per our recommendation in the config guides. I hope this helps.

November 29, 2012 at 5:00 am in reply to: Davinci Resolve conforming then rendering to 220 and have that relink to the edlHi Daniel, sorry, I’m not sure of your problem.
Resolve reads the mixed formats, you want to render to one format, DNxHD 220, or render to the source formats?
Or is your issue one of relinking to the mixed source formats from your edit supplied edl?
You can put the file name in the comments of the EDL. Then select this option in the project settings.

Please refer to the Resolve config guide which details how to build a Resolve system.

From memory, 12GB (4×2) is recommended for the 2008 as it has a quad channel memory buss.
I should also add, its less critical when using 64bit OS.

It depends which motherboard for specifics but its impact it more for decoding compressed images than grading speed which is more GPU based.
