Davinci 17 error -40

PostThu Mar 18, 2021 3:22 pm

Hi, I have a problem with PNG file, tringe to load large file, 2048x20000 pixels, for final titles.
all other PNG files work normally, 2048x1080 or 2048x5000, no problem with them. i never had the same issue with Davinci 16. made more then 50 projects, with large PNG file 2048x15000 25000....
now every time i am trying to open PNG, 2048x20000 pixels file, davinci gives me error -40 :(

I recall reading that 16,000 is the dimension limit in Resolve.

Maybe the binary version (16,384), but yes, 16K is the limit.
My disaster protection: export a .drp file to a physically separated storage regularly.

The mystery is resolved with 20000pixel file :) the trick is that, if you import PNG file with transparent background, then it works :) when it has a background , black, white..... it gives an error 40 :) in future update, it will bi nice to have possibility to import 20000 pixel files :)
