Transitions generate "Media offline" errors and crashes 19.1

PostWed Nov 27, 2024 1:22 am

I've seen this before and usually, replacing the transition solves the issue. This time ALL transitions are involved and replacing them does not seem to help.
The media shows correctly on the timeline.
Any suggestions? Tia

Is it related to this issue...

[Davinci resolve 19.1 new fusion generators don’t work]

viewtopic.php?f=21&t=211917

go to my computer-> C Drive -> Program Files ->BlackMagic Design -> Davinci Resolve-> Fusion

and double click on Templates.drfx

davinci resolve will open and install it.

sometimes it may ask if you want to overwrite the installation.

click “yes” and it should work.

Kruno,

Thank you for your response. Although I believe you are correct that the Fusion titles are causing the problem, the suggested fix did not solve the issue. DaVinci simply crashes while attempting to load the project and install the template at the same time. The second attempt will NOT load the project and will install the template, but you will have to kill the program the first time. (Via Task Manager.)

I did come up with a workaround; Instead of replacing each transition, I just selected the transitions one at a time, made a small adjustment to the length, and then changed it back, and that forced the media back online.

However, I later discovered that simply turning ALL the clips and transitions into a "Compound clip" does the same thing and a hell of a lot faster.

Ultimately, I still had to remove the "Fusion" titles and make do with animating "TEXT+".

Perhaps there will be a future release that will allow the use of some of these cool Fusion titles.

Thanks Again,

David
