DaVinci Resolve on Linux - Install issues

You may sudo su in order to become root on Ubuntu. Plain su won't work, as there is no root user password set by default.

Ooh... thanks for all that both of you! This is going to take me some time to run through. Excellent stuff. Thankyou. I will probably not get to it until tomorrow.

I gather that mp3 decoding is supposed to be working under linux. Does anyone have mp3 playback working in Resolve 14 under a Ubuntu based distro?
I am running Linux Mint 18.2 with all the usual extra codecs installed and MP3 playback works fine in other apps, but could be getting tripped up by some non-standard repository. Not running the Resolve Studio version (yet), just the free one.

Installed Resolve 14 on Ubuntu 16.04 without issue. However, during playback I can't hear any audio. Simple 16 bit wav imported without issue. Placed on Audio 1. Playback---no sound.
Also, under Preferences, Video and Audio I/O, "Use System Audio Output" is grayed.

Any suggestions???

Audio codecs are limited on the linux version the only one I got to work of is WAV PCM
all other codecs not working
also you have to know that Resolve doesn't support system audio, you need a specific audio card for it to output audio.

Thanks, not just me then. I bought a Decklink card but still could do with system audio for live recordings. Just have to use the iMac for that.
Can't see why the codecs are so limited. The Binary seems to use ffmpeg libraries (libavcodec etc.), even libogg and libvorbis. MP3 has been out of patent for a few months too.
Is the Studio version so limited?

I could assemble and mount mp3 on the timeline of davincirelove14 but under centos as it was planned. I prefer to follow the indications and not tried under ubuntu. You have to follow a tutorial to install the nvidia drivers for the correct card and kill the "new" drivers. It almost works. You must buy a BlackMagic card to hear the sound. But it does not do everything. Some formats like the LTS AVCHD from SONY CANON GOPRO DJI and other H264, all very popular are not yet functional in me: There are no codecs for sound. Our studio very often rises many sources of rush from several cameras. 6K, RED, Prores but also Dji drone, immersive GOPRO, or good photo boxes with very strong openings and large sensors to give blur style. We use small A77ii or A99ii DSLR cameras on Dji Ronin to shoot in unlikely places. This is the film of today. At this time Davinci is unusable as is. I am very surprised that the AVCHD very dependent in all the cuts is not functional. (Especially as much simpler software like KdenLive AVCHD lice without problem.) I transmitted a rush AVCHD LTS which is problematic. I hope an answer soon.

Thats interesting, so it might be worthwhile doing some juggling with different libraries to get it working under Ubuntu type distros.

Under centos I installed VLC to get a maximum of codec to playback. I do not know how davinci could inherit it. I will try other MP3s from other sources. It is possible that the problem on my AVCHD also comes from the MP3 license. Dwaine will confirm but, I may be missing a bookstore under hundred to read it correctly. My tests on KDENLIVE were done on Ubuntu. I'll try KDENLIVE on Centos to see if I can read my rush with sound or not.

@Audacieuse-Galerie Sarl: Thanks for the file.

The file audio works in Windows Resolve.

Linux Resolve metadata shows 2 channels of 48 KHz audio, but no meter activity and no audio out.

We'll look into it.

Thanks Dwaine.

I have watched several avchd from 4 cameras, brand Sony Canon and Dji. I can play them with sound in VLC. But actually nothing with Davinci. Can I do something for the tracks to be listenable? Manually mount the sound on the rush somewhere in the program?

is there any audio solution for laptops on linux? as we need (now at least and maybe in the future) a decklink card to output sound, is there some portable card running via usb3 or pcmcia etc? only portable thing i found was the Intensity shuttle and i only found on the webs that it is not running on linux, correct me if i m wrong...

Good question Kris, I have Resove Studio that run on a workstation with an Intensity 4K, but I can use it on my laptop with linux, I have also a Shuttle USB but without driver for linux doesn't works.

[Dwaine Maggart]

@Audacieuse-Galerie Sarl: Your file has AC3 audio. Resolve Linux does not support decoding AC3 audio, or MP3 audio.

Hello

Seriously you get to work the 4K on a laptop with davinciresolve?

What configuration do you have?

Woaow. Dwaine I'm surprised. A video program that does not support most of the music we download on the music database and that we use in our movies. And that does not support the sound of most of our small cameras. I hope you will make it evolve in this direction. In the meantime, without any solutions at home, you force me to return to Kdenlive and Final Cut Pro X. Waiting for better news.

[Dwaine Maggart]

@Audacieuse-Galerie Sarl: You are running FCPX on Linux?

@Audacieuse-Galerie Sarl: Your file has AC3 audio. Resolve Linux does not support decoding AC3 audio, or MP3 audio.

I trust that patent encumbrance is not the reason for the lack of support, because the patents for MP3 and AC3 have both expired in the last year.

No Old Mac. But that lacks power. I quit Mac because it's not evolutive. No card add, in mac pro for exemple. I would have preferred PC linux. Essentially because our developers go in this direction. Too bad I would use Kdenlive. I have nothing else on hand for 4K. And my rush can not wait any longer.

You may sudo su in order to become root on Ubuntu. Plain su won't work, as there is no root user password set by default.

Er, not quite. This, plus the system password, creates a permanent su access:

Code: Select all

sudo -i

Do not remain as superuser a second longer than necessary! A mistake as su is a certain way to irreversible results.

Er, not quite. This, plus the system password, creates a permanent su access:

Code: Select all

sudo -i

It really seems you can learn something new every day

I myself come from Gentoo background, having used it on my desktop 2004-2012. There I did everything the old fashioned way by using su to become superuser. Having moved 2012 to Ubuntu, it seems I have learned some bad habits somewhere during my first Ubuntu years...

So, sudo su does give you root access, but it doesn't give you the clean root environment, thus if your user account had been compromised it would be possible to make you run as root commands that have been added to your user environment or your path variable might point your editor to a editor that isn't really the one installed in the system.

So, use sudo -i or if really paranoid, use always the full path to sudo when running that command

IMHO if someone steps into superuser and doesn't know the way to /root, etc., they probably deserve whatever happens. Better to use sudo in hopes of not stepping on a booby-trap.

Back on topic...
I installed what I take to be 14 non-beta on Ubuntu 16.10. Apparently it tries to launch, but doesn't reach even the project page. Is there a way to collect a log from Resolve without having access (that is, can't see Resolve) to any menus or type-ins?

[Dwaine Maggart]

In a terminal:

/opt/resolve/scripts/script.getlogs.v4

First: Thankyou for all the help on using Ubuntu with Resolve.
I have spent some time now thinking about this and have come up with the following.
1) I need to buy another sound card.
2) Even if I buy this extra card I may still have problems and may have to instal another version of Linux.
3) I don't really want to learn another operating system. Linux seems in many ways to be a great leap forward back into DOS.

So using Linux really seems like too much trouble to be worthwhile.

Therefore I think the smart thing is for me is to anti-up the dosh for Win 10 and dual boot Win 10 with my good old Win 7 until I am comfortable in 10.
Now alls I have to do is to figure out how to remove Ubuntu. Not looking forward to that.
Cheers.

@Dwayne: gotit, will try it.

@Bill: I don't know nothin' about Resolve, but I haven a few clues about Linux. I have a clue or two about Ubuntu.

What tells you that you need another sound card? (There's probably an answer somewhere in this thread - assume I'm too lazy to look for it)

Why do you think you'll still have problems even with a new sound card?

In the main, changing Linux distros (e.g., Ubuntu to OpenSUSE) usually creates more problems than staying with the distribution you have. What version of Ubuntu are you using? 16.04 LTS is quite stable and remains supported. 16.10 is, for the most part, doing well, too. For me. Your mileage may vary...

Um, Linux can be a return to DOS if you need to work in a terminal. If you're working with various GUI's, not so much. At least a) Linux is extensively documented, b) there's no "oh, you're not allowed to see how this works". Both count for a lot.

Stepping from Win7 to Win10 isn't quite the short step it might seem to be. While it's possible to coerce (not a bit of humor or hyperbole in that word) Win10 into a near approximation of Win7, you'll never get back to thinking you're using Win7. Which means you'll have to learn at a new dialect of another OS. Microsoft, through Win10, has instituted some draconian security measures disguised as "we're here to help you". Their implementation depends heavily on your machine's BIOS. Newer BIOS' are the kiss of death. Only slightly exaggerating.

Stick with Linux, assume there is a solution to your problems, move forward from there.

If you want to give up on Linux, is it currently a stand-alone installation or dual booting with Win7 as the alternative OS?

OMG - it just dawned on me that there are two instances, on my Linux machine, of Resolve 14 - beta and release. Probably the best thing to do is back them both out and start with 14.0. Since they went in with BMD's shell script, the Synaptic tool doesn't know about Resolve. Ditto for the Ubuntu software "store" app. Neither can back out the installation.

Is there an option for the installation script that does an uninstall? Searching the script doesn't turn up the word "uninstall". Or does the 14.0 (release) version over-write beta?

[Dwaine Maggart]

In a normal RHEL/CentOS environment, installing a different version will overwrite the existing version.

There is no uninstall option.

OK - no worries about over-writing, then.

I went back and looked closer at the errors from running script.getlogs.v4

The resolve directories exist, but aren't populated with the expected files. /etc/X11... looks right, but that's information from the "bad old days" of OpenSuSE, not current and correct with Ubuntu.

Looking at the log tgz's, there's config.dat, a summary about the machine and Ubuntu, and an X11 log, but I don't see any signs of a log from having tried to run Resolve.

[Dwaine Maggart]

It is normal for that script to generate some errors. Not all the files it's looking for actually exist. When it's run from the Resolve application, those errors are hidden, so not an issue.

Hopefully we will modify the script to more closely align with the current install philosophy.

That makes sense. And, of course, different distros hide things in different places.

Back to "appears to launch but shows no project page or any other page"... What else can I do to help diagnose what's happening?

[Dwaine Maggart]

Provide a link to what the script DID generate. And then throw in everything that is in the Resolve logs directory, which in a RHEL/CentOS install would be in /opt/resolve/logs.

Please refer to my post, with the code quotes, above. The links to the logs are included at the bottom of the post.

Hey everyone,

I recently installed Ubuntu 16.04 on my Samsung laptop but I have had some problems along the way.

It successfully installed but it wouldn't open because OpenLibCL.so and libssl.so10 weren't installed. I installed them. Doing so made me able to open the welcome screen for first timers (the one that requests a tour of the software and yada yada). After I went through the introduction I finally clicked "Start" to launch the program and nothing happened.

I ran it through terminal and this is what I get now:

I tried using Synaptic to find the library and didn't find the libraries you mentioned. I did find some Nvidia libraries, but Synaptic commentary says they only support OpenCL V1.1. AFAIK, this isn't enough for resolve.

Where did you find the libraries you installed?

I'm also using 16.04 (earlier I mistakenly said 16.10 - I did have it installed but I reverted to a fresh install of 16.04).

you definitely have to use the proprietary nvidia dirver and its CUDA and OpenCL libraries instead of the free nouveau ones. otherwise you will see this kind of nasty incompatibility symptoms.

edit: i just saw, you don't have a nvidia card in your machine
and to be honest, i don't know, if the "AMD Radeon R7 240 Series" will work with resolve on linux at all...

Sigh... I keep forgetting I don't have an Nvidia GPU in the Linux box, only the Win10 box.

Digging around, it seems that 16.10 possibly has support, for this GPU, which might mesh with Resolve. I started up a Linux box to, I hoped, move off my laptop. The best laid plans of mice and men... Anyway, I'll go back to 16.10 and see what happens.

AMD has a 17.30 driver for Ubuntu 16.04 that works with your R7 - I'm running Resolve using the same driver with an R9 285 and it's working great - might be worth a try?

However, at the end of this adventure, Resolve 14 still isn't functioning at any usable level.

Yup. Looks like we're basically in the same boat now.

@Dwaine Is there anything else we can supply, in addition to the posted CODE items, that will help to move forward on this issue?

I went back to Ubuntu 16.04.3 from 16.10, doing a full erase in the process. 16.10 didn't help to
run Resolve. I decided to go back to the LTS Ubuntu instead of fooling around with MATE.

Anyway... the results are the same old thing. The intro screen and then nothing.

Same song, different day...

This is actually a bit like my earlier problem. Although I'm using an Nvidia card and the error in the log is different. Have a look at my earlier post. I can't explain it but I have to do this hack every time after a clean OS install (Debian 9).

viewtopic.php?f=21&t=56878&start=500#p362425

Why it works is for me a mystery...

Has anybody got a DeckLink 4K Extreme working with CENTOS and Resolve?


I was able to install the software and the driver.

HArdware is installed:

# lspci | grep Blackmagic
02:00.0 Multimedia video controller: Blackmagic Design DeckLink 4K Extreme


However No Desktop Video Device Detected and then i enter:

# lsmod | grep blackmagic

it returns nothing

Anybody have any ideas?

Hello,


We manage to get Resolve 14 to Linux Mint 18.2 (Cinnamon) & NVIDIA. Seems good, build on Ubuntu 16.04.

We used the Ubuntu guide by AndréRodrigues (thanks to him). I converted the syntax to Mint, otherwise is very similar.


Update: Working LUTs and grades that stay saved.

Update: Linux/Mac (Win) Resolve dualboot - Circumvent import/export issues by prepping and finalizing projects in another OS


1. Terminal: sudo apt install libssl-dev

2. Terminal: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgstreamer-1.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0

3. Terminal: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgstbase-1.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libgstbase-0.10.so.0

4. Terminal: sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib/libssl.so.10

5. Terminal: sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.10


6. Download Resolve 14 from the official website

7. Unzip package and open the folder in the terminal


8. Install Resolve (shell or .deb)

8.1 Terminal: sudo sh DaVinci_Resolve_14.0_Linux.sh # run the installation

OR

8.2 Use makeresolvedeb to install (and uninstall) Resolve as a Debian package. (Thanks to Daniel Tufvesson)


9. Terminal: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt dist-upgrade && sudo apt install build-essential && sudo apt install linux-source && sudo apt install linux-headers-generic


10. Terminal: sudo xed /etc/default/grub
(This is option. It lets you see startup and makes it quicker.)

10.1 In the opened archive look for the line:
"GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT..."

10.2 Change this line to:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="profile"

10.3 Terminal: sudo update-grub2


11. Update the Nvidia driver.

11.1 Search for and open 'Driver Manager' in the Mint menu.

11.2 Change to the recommended NVIDIA driver. Apply. Mint replaces Nouveau driver in the background.


12. Install CUDA, following the NVIDIA guide.

13. Terminal: sudo apt install libpng12-0 (unavailable since Ubuntu 16.10, download here)

14. Terminal: sudo apt install ocl-icd-opencl-dev


15. Reboot


16. UPDATE YOUR LUTS: This affects some users. You need the /LUT and /.LUT (hidden folder) from R14 Win/OSX install.

16.1 In /opt/resolve, backup your existing /LUT and /.LUT. (you need root access; Mint filemanager can 'open as root' with right-click).

16.2 Copy the new LUT folders into /opt/resolve/. (thanks to Philippe Galle.)


17. SAVE YOUR GRADES: By default, Resolve saves disk database and /Media in /opt/resolve. Bad idea. This can very quickly fill your root with optimized media, and leave your system unusable. Use of separate hard drives or partitions for /Media and the databases is thus recommended.

17.1 On your Scratch Disk, create e.g. /Resolve/Media. On your Database Disk, create e.g. /Resolve/Databases/yourdb.

17.2 Open Resolve.

17.3 The quick setup suggest /opt/resolve/Media. Replace with Scratch Disk/Resolve/Media.

17.4 Project Manager: Click 'Projects' in upper-left. You will see the default local database. Disconnect it.

17.5 Create a new Disk database and save into Db Disk/Resolve/Databases/yourdb. Remember to back it up. (thanks to Vassilis Kontodimas.)


18. RESOLVE SUPPORTS US. For optimum compatibility, use Resolve with a user account that has the language, region and default keyboard layout set to English (US).

Using another country layout may disable kb shortcuts. Using a separate language/region with v14 causes serious problem when Resolve saves the grades. (This issue is fixed as of v15b1.) (thanks to Fabrice Lapeyrere.)

THAT'S IT! You are ready to run the Resolve 14!


Notes.
SOUND (on v14) requires a BMD I/O card (Decklink / Intensity 4k). The Intensity shuttle (TB/USB3) has no Linux driver at this time.

According to Dwayne @ BMD, laptop users may get sound with an UltraStudio I/O device (e.g. Mini Monitor), if used via Thunderbolt port (the USB ports are not supported).

As of v15b1, System Audio is supported.


GPUs must support either CUDA 3.0 or OpenCL 1.2.

GeForce GTX's are officially supported via CUDA and perform well in an FP32 software like Resolve. Ati support exists, but is more uneven in different configs.


IMPORT FORMATS include
For video: Prores, DNxHD/HR + on Studio, h26x.
In free version, h26x is unsupported.

For audio: WAV, PCM, AIFF
AC3 and MP3 are unsupported.

Supported codecs for 12.5 (pdf)

Note that Prores encoding on Linux is only via Advanced Panel & special dongle.
No h26x encoding on Linux, only Win/Mac (Lite & Studio).

Rick Emerson, you need OpenCL development files. Is a step in Mint installation, which I added.

Try

17.- Terminal: sudo apt install ocl-icd-opencl-dev

[Dwaine Maggart]

@Ian: the DeckLink cards work fine in CentOS with Resolve. That's our standard Linux config.

What version of CentOS are you using?

Hello, we will see.
We attempted to edit a one-minute clip with proreis from an Atomos Ninja Inferno recorder. There are a problem.

After a save, and the reopening of the project, we find colors completely crazy. Violent blue, saturated red, 100% black on all clips that have been delicately adjusted. The Gain it's not correct. See capture.
