And yet I somehow cannot properly configure Fusion SA 16 Beta on my machine. Please stand it with me - I'm a complete newbie with the SA version of Fusion (I've only used the Fusion page in Resolve ever since it appeared there)...
Please tell me what may be the reason for such basic script errors as inability to load frames from a clip pointed to by the loader node? Below is a fragment of such errors, displayed in the Console when I try to play back a very basic comp which is supposed to feed a clip into the ColorCorrector node, and then write such a color-corrected clip by the Saver node?

This is so simple that I cannot imagine any other reason for actually not playing the script back and the Render button action failing and returning error, other than
some very basic yet important configuration error of the Fusion SA application itself.... In this contents, it seems even stranger than Render actually (though very slowly) does work on the downloaded example project from the Fusion 16 product page (
https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/fusion/) with the link
https://downloads.blackmagicdesign.com/ ... roject.zip .... After rendering, the Spaceship shoots across in the viewer window...
So, to summarize, my installation of SA Fusion 16 Beta suffers from some rudimentary configuration problems, manifesting in:
1. Inability to find and read video clips on a local drive
2. Incredibly slow (e.g. compared to Resolve's Fusion page version) rendering, where only one of my 2x Titan Xp GPUs is used at up to 10% load at the max
Can anyone suggest some most obvious errors in my stand-alone Fusion 16 Beta installation? TIA

PS. One more question: should I actually install both the 2.7 AND 3.6 versions of Python? And, where the "Script Editor" option in the Script page of Global and Default Settings should be pointing to - is this a correct value of this field: C:\Python27\python.exe (assuming I have Python 2.7 installed with all defaults)?
