DPX, TIFF and PNG issues

PostSat Dec 16, 2017 1:03 am

For some reason when I'm importing a DPX, TIFF or PNG image sequence all I'm getting is a blank screen. I can see the thumbnail. The VFX artist who is supplying them has Resolve 12.5 and he can import and see them. Any ideas?

Tell us about your hardware (and maybe his too).
No, an iGPU is not enough, and you can't use HEVC 10 bit 4:2:2 in the free version.

Studio 18.6.5, MacOS 13.6.5
MacBook M1 Pro, 16 GPU cores, 32 GB RAM and iPhone 15 Pro
Speed Editor, UltraStudio Monitor 3G, iMac 2017, eGPU

There seams to be some issues on this OSX version, which was pointed in question about RED files been black. It's probably the same problem. Go back with OSX.

Its strange. I've been grading other projects and they've been fine. Whatever has happened with this project has affected all the others. Whats I've just done is uninstalled Resolve and then removed all the prefs in the Root library and user library. Have opened fresh and it seems to be working.... so far... :D
