Hope someone here can advise the best way to handle/resolve/deal with this. I'm on an almost new computer (within this year).
OS Catalina.
2.4 GHz 8-core Intel Core i9.
32 GB 2667 MHz DDR4 AMD
Radeon Pro 5600M 8 GB
Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB
Shooting .braw at 6k (I have the project timeline resolution set to 1920x1080 HD), everything is pretty smooth until I enter Fusion. Once I start adding nodes, playback becomes laggy. Once I add in a second piece of footage to composite (also at 6k) it gets unusable. Shooting at 60fps, I might be getting 19-20 frames/second playback in the read out on the lower right corner of the screen.
If I stack the tracks in the Edit page and then create the Fusion clip so that I'm only compositing at 1920x1080 it's not *as* bad but performance is still not exactly smooth
What am I missing that I need to learn? I tried generating and using optimized media to no avail. Working off of the internal SSD was just as laggy as my TB3 connected 8-disk RAID enclosure (working off of the SSD), so I don't think it's a drive issue.
Increasing RAM allocation in Preferences doesn't really improve things enough to make this usable.
I don't need it to be smooth enough to leisurely watch a film in Fusion. I just need it smooth enough to keyframe to tempos for instructional guitar videos. Right now it's too laggy to even judge where downbeats should be, etc.
All of the practice examples in the training books/courses work like a champ. Playback is totally smooth when I'm working with the material provided by BMD in "The Visual Effects Guide To Davinci Resolve 17"
If you can help me out of this dilemma, I'll love you forever.
