"Media Offline" and choppy playback
![Post Post](./styles/bmd_universal/imageset/icon_post_target.gif)
Hi all,
Having a nightmare with some footage from my DJI Osmo handheld gimbal. It just isn't playing with Resolve.
When selected in the media page or edit page the footage will say "Media Offline", even though it clearly isn't missing the path or anything. When you play or preview it, the audio will play and some frames will flash up, but mostly it just says "Media Offline" in red. The FPS counter also goes a bit crazy starting at ~1-3fps, then jumping to ~40fps before settling at 24fps (which is the clip frame rate), but even when it settles it still only flashes up odd frames.
I've tried creating optimized media from the footage, changing my graphics card from CUDA to OpenCL, forcing a different framerate, no joy. I could transcode it, but I really don't want to lose quality and create duplicate copies of perfectly good footage, and I don't want to have to spend hours doing that for ALL my raw footage before even getting to the edit stage.
The footage is 1280x720, 24fps, H264 so really shouldn't be causing a problem. I realise this might be a problem with how DJI writes the codecs, but the footage works absolutely fine in Premiere, VLC, Media player etc., it's just Resolve that has an issue.
I've done a screen cast of the playback so you can see what happens and I'll try to upload it here.
