  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

DaVinci Resolve 7 for Mac now shipping

Folks,

Just saw this thread. We shipped a bunch of Resolve's worldwide over the last week (including Florian--thanks!!)

For people looking at the hardware panels, they are available for order and deliver at end of October:

We're working with Cubix on expander tests for people who need more slots. Should see preliminary posts on Wed. or Thurs. from those tests.

Build your own RED Rocket system: http://bit.ly/7F4QA1
 
Has anyone tried running resolve in a Hackintosh?
 
8.5fps with GTX285 only is really poor performance. I got better performance with my Mac Pro 2008 with the GTX285 only.

What did you test with anyway? RED? Try lowering your quality settings..
 
Tested on Quad core Q9550, mobo Asus P5Q pro, on 3.2Ghz. Yes, I know its poor, but much faster than Color. By the way tested on RED raw 4K material without proxies on.
So this is preliminary, I am building i7 comp, and will make further tests to establish optimal workable realtime setup.
The problem with hackintoshes is that no mobo vendor is documenting or put in the BIOS how to command or configure PCIe slots.
Trying to boot video from slot 2 with different mobos, leaving 285 GTX in slot 1. This is necessary in order to mimic Mac Pro setup.
If anyone have some info about this, please post here.
 
Keep up the good work alexander.

Does anyone know of any Resolve coarses here in the UK?
 
Why 10.6.4?

Why 10.6.4?

Hi, I'm new user of resolve.

My question is, why minimun system is 10.6.4?. I tested with 10.6.2 without problems.

I have a hackintosh... and a lot of problem with 10.6.4, near half fps with 10.6.4 than 10.6.2.

My second question is, I have 3 cards, 2x gtx285 + 1x 8800GT. I have monitor system conected to 8800gt. I get same fps with one gtx285 than with two gtx285. Is this normal?. Is not possible to add extra cuda cores from the second card?.


I want to say thank you to DaVinci team, this software is awesome. I'm really happy with the realtime output quality. Two month ago i was decided to buy rocket, but now, I'm not sure.


saludos,

Jose.

Pretty sure the Mac OsX license for DaVinci only supports 1 GPU. That is why it is important to get the fastest one available.
 
10.6.4 is required because it's the current release and has some graphics fixes for both CUDA and general video card support. 10.6.3 is very problematic with certain GPUs and CUDA apps. 10.6.2 would be fine, but it's over 6 months old now.

Resolve for Mac only supports the display video card and one additional GPU for processing. If you want more GPUs, you need to buy the Linux version, which doesn't limit you.

Thanks Jeff.
 
Self built. Gigabyte x58 mobo, i7 930 overclocked on 4GHz, 285 GTX, 4 disk soft raid.
I am still working on second vga. OS needs little tweaking. I found the solution but don't have time to implement it. When I do it I'll post here.
