Resolve not working with any video file

PostThu Jan 14, 2021 2:43 pm

Basically the title. I filmed in .MOV MPEG/4 and when importing the videos to Resolve 16 I just got Media Offline errors with only the audio working. I tried to convert the video using Hanbrake to mp4 and webm with h.264 as the codec and still nothing worked. I downloaded the latest beta version of Resolve 17 but nothing worked there either. At last I tried with some stock mp4 footage and still the same problem, Media Offline. I'm guessing there is a problem with my computer since after installing and reinstalling different versions to different drives I still get problems. I am running Windows 10 and Resolve 16/17. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advanced

Which version of Resolve are you currently running?

What camera was used for the filming?

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.

It was a Nikon D800. I think it films in MOV MPEG/4.

And is your computer up to specs?
