DaVinci Resolve 20b2 crashes on startup or switching to Edit

PostFri Apr 25, 2025 12:49 pm

Hello everyone! While many of these symptoms were present in the previous Beta version, they are unfortunately much more common in this second one.

I've already tried all the possible solutions suggested in this and other forums regarding this type of error, and none of them solve the problem. Sometimes the crash occurs after the DVR startup screen, other times, and mostly, when I open a project (I'm working with Postgres, not local projects).

And sometimes, even when everything is "normal" up until that point, if the project is on a page other than the Edit page, switching to that page causes it to crash again, just as sometimes if we're in the preferences or project editing panel.

Here's a link to the logs from today and yesterday, unzipped in a Drive:

In the same folder, I've posted my hardware report:

Thank you very much, and I hope to find a solution!

Finally after trying dozens of workarounds, I've found my solution it was (after reading once again the requirements for DVR 20 Beta 3) to install CUDA Toolkit 12.8 from NVIDIA: https://tinyurl.com/255tuxsu

After installing this toolkit, all runs correctly in every page and most common functions, honestly I could try completely due time, but edit, color, magic mask, multi text for instance, work perfect.

I hope this could be the solution for many other users with constants crashes with DVR 20.

Thanks!
