Resolve + RED Helium : random render hangs
Posted: Mon May 29, 2017 4:55 pm
Hi,
Working with RED Helium footage, I've got some random problems with renders. I have to render DNxHD36 MXF proxies and H264 720p QT files from native RED RAW (most of the time 7K, but sometime 6K and under).
I work with IPP2 curves and LUTs.
I can't find a way to repeat the problem. It seems quite random. It looks like some kind of overload. Somedays big timelines go through, some other days not any timeline can handle the job correctly.
When I launch renders, either H264 or DNxHD, render hangs from time to time at some point. Never at the same moment but still after quite a while. Deliver playback stops, the render countdown starts to grow. When I wait long enough, a message pops up : "Timeout when waiting for frame [XXXXX] for recording, frame dropped".
I've limited render speed to 50fps. Still crashes. At a render speed of 25fps, it seems to hold on.
I can stop the render. Save project and quit Resolve. But then Resolve hangs and I have to force it to quit.
I'm using DaVinci Resolve 12.5.5.026. I've also tried with DaVinci Resolve 14 beta 3 : exactly the same random problem.
I'm running MacOS X Yosemite (10.10.5) on a Mac Pro (late 2013). Here are the hardware specs :
- Intel Xeon E5 8-core (3 Ghz)
- RAM DDR3 64Go ECC
- AMD FirePro D700 x2 (ROM revision : 113-C3861J-687 / gMux : 4.0.11 [3.2.8] / EFI : 01.0D.687)
- RED Rocket X (disabled in Resolve but under use for decompression)
- Promise Pegasus2 R8 RAID array (32 To)
And here is a link to Resolve log : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3U1Mh ... sp=sharing
Thanks a lot for support!
