UPDATE INSTALLER AND NEW ENTRY *** VIDEO TUTORIAL INSTALLATION *****
 
ciao Mohammed,
good question :)
yes system work with 10.6.4 10.6.5 10.6.6 10.6.7 with 6 core i7(vanilla kernel), the problem is installation ,but the dvd is 10.6.3 and kernel of this not support i7 6 core.... In this moment no have a 6 core here for make and test installer.
Next day i try put kernel 10.5.0 in my installer .... not simple ....
Alternative installation is you have a little i7 for example i7 920 , install os 10.6.3 update to 10.6.7 and change processor .

thanks

LUIGI
 
molto grazie Luigi..

I have another question, does Blackmagic Decklink Extreme 3D support 10bit RGB 4:4:4 over HDMI to an HP Dreamcolor? can one use a different card than Blackmagic Decklink Extreme 3D?

thanks in advance..
 
Ciao Mohammed,
For blackmagic 3d :
Multiple Rate support SDI, HDMI and component analog video connections are switchable between standard definition and high definition. SDI switches between 270 Mb/s standard definition SDI, 1.5 Gb/s HD-SDI and 3 Gb/s HD and 2K SDI.
Video Sampling 4:2:2 and 4:4:4
Color Precision
10 bit
Color Space
4:2:2 YUV and 4:4:4 RGB


For your question about another card, my reponse is yes but in this moment i decided to support only DAVINCI RESOLVE and Blackmagic DeckLink HD Extreme 3D with my Asus p6t7 WS.:001_smile:

thanks
LUIGI

As a former professional systems builder that is a very very nice build man, love the cleanness of it.
Lovely work.
 
Dear Group,

I have a Hackintosh with the following configuration on which I would want to load Resolve.
I want to use a single video card, probably NVidia 9800 gt
I can upgrade my RAM.(What is minimum RAM needed?)
This is a barebones system just to learn Resolve, and I require just the GUI.
Do not require Blackmagic to capture.

Asus P7P55D-E PRO
Intel Core i7 2.94 GHz
GeForce 9500 GT
4GB RAM
MacOs 10.6.4
SATA HDD

Please Advise,
Thanks in Advance

ciao John.,

in this moment support only ASUS P6t7 Ws SUPERCOMPUTER mainboard.
I'm sorry would otherwise be too many already and it is not easy .

thanks
Luigi
