When I try and play sample red footage, I get the Error 77 message and the picture locks up until Resolve is restarted. The footage was downloaded from the red.com/sample-r3d-files page and is the HELIUM 8K S35 footage. I am running a Windows 10 box with an RTX 2080ti and a Blackmagic Decklink 4k 12G Extreme video card.
There are 8 different files on that webpage identified as "HELIUM 8K S35". I happened to have 3 of them, which I loaded into the Media page and played without failure with the settings you mention, this on my lower-spec'd GPU. It may be necessary to know
(1) exactly which ONE of the EIGHT did you have problems with?
(2) what is your system configuration, including NVIDIA driver?
Apologies for the delayed response, holidays.
1. The ONE of EIGHT files was named H001_C001_1215VG_001.R3D and was in a folder titled "epicw8k-standard-24fps-7to1redcode_16x9". It's the city skyline to the right of the snow covered monkey in the pool clip. The similarity in specs for the other clips fooled me in to thinking this wasn't necessary info.
2. Computer specs: 7980xe Skylake X 18-Core on a ROG Rampage VI Extreme with 64 gb of Corsair dominator platinum 64gb (4x16gb) ddr4 3200mhz ram. The media drive is a 1TB Samsung 970 pro NVME and the system drive is a Crucial MX500 2TB. I am running Windows 10 with an RTX 2080ti card running driver 26.21.14.4166. The video card is a Blackmagic Decklink 4k 12G Extreme video card going sdi to an FSI broadcast monitor and and HDMI to a UHD LG OLED client montior. I have an XMP profile setup in my bios, but otherwise stock.
Additional info: My timeline settings are set to the 8k resolution of the source clip. The 12G Extreme is sending a UHD signal to the client monitor and a real time down convert to 1080p for the FSI. There is no scaling on the output so there is cropping to the UHD resolution. I have no color grade on the clip and was only testing the new driver for playback performance at this point.
Some new info I came across is in the article from Puget systems that seems to suggest the "Decompression and Debayer" setting can actually cause worse performance on multi-core machines. Their tests were on an 24 core AMD TR 3960X.
https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/artic ... ents-1645/I have dropped my setting back to "Debayer" and so far the issue is resolved and the system is stable.
