I think there's a bug with High Sierra and Metal GPU support.
Go back to Sierra (10.12.6.).

I'm not sure you can avoid this.
Try setting the GPU mode on the preferences to OpenCL first.

Hope this helps.

If I select Metal as the GPU Processing Mode that solves it.

It works on my system (w10)...

It seems to be a mac issue.

I was having the same problem on my MacBook Pro. Tried importing the footage to a new blank project and it worked, even though I as far as I can tell all the relevant settings were identical.

Definitely an issue with MAC. Here with W10 64 PRO, a RED 6K and no issue with DR V14.2 ..

Glad I checked here first!
On High Sierra 10.13.1 Studio 14.1 works for me.
10.13.2 broke r3D for Resolve only in 14.1 and It appears for 14.2

:?: Anyone running 14.2 on 10.13.1 able to comment on R3d working or not?
what to shoot is the million dollar question

I solved this problem by switching my GPU over to Metal after upgrading to High Sierra. Seems to have worked perfectly.
