This is Mac OSX 10.12.6.
I had not yet tried reinstalling Resolve 12.5.6, which I could "theoretically" do. I did run the separate 1.1.1 panel firmware update (DaVinci Resolve Panels Setup) and it reported this:
It can't roll back to 1.1.1 if the panel already has 1.1.2, because it can't "see" it in the system. The 1.1.2 panel software works absolutely fine in Resolve 14.
What would be nice would be either a) we had a utility to force the panel to revert back to 1.1.1, b) or even better, a patch for Resolve 12.5.6 that would allow using a panel with 1.1.2 firmware. I would rather use Resolve 14 at this point, but I still have some clients I deal with who for logistical reasons are stuck with 12.5, and I have no choice but to work with their setup.
This basically forces me to take finished Resolve 14 projects and then use a chisel and a sledgehammer (XMLs and Gallery stills) to bring those projects into 12.5. It's tough work, but it can be done. (Pain-killers and loud cursing helps pass the time.)
