Two Questions

PostWed Mar 17, 2021 1:32 pm

Just got the Studio version of DaVinci Resolve

The main reasons I got the studio version is because I needed two features, mainly gfx acceleration and camera RAW editing

About the gfx card acceleration, every time I render a video, it says that the rendering is done natively, even though I've selected Nvidia as the encoder choice, when I stop the rendering, it goes back to Nvidia

Also, the Camera RAW option is greyed out for some reason, I don't know whether it because there needs to be something done in the configuration menu

Couple things.

1. If you've selected NVIDIA as the Encoder, then that is what's being used.

2. Camera Raw controls on the Color page only apply to RAW media, and they are available in the Free version as well.
My Biases:

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

1. It kept going to Native for some reason. For some even stranger reason, it is now using the GPU encoding and not Native. So that is resolved

2. I am not sure what you mean, I thought that if I selected ALL-I that is RAW on Canon cameras

Just realised that it's because it the edit of the free version of Resolve, which is a bit weird. Should be able to just convert old projects from the free version, rather than to have to go through all the re-editing again

I don't know Canon cameras, but generally in this Industry All-I is a way of encoding H.264 using, as the name suggests, all I-frames. No B or P frames. It's definitely not RAW.
