As usual I'm biding my time on buying the newest Mavic until I feel the bugs are ironed-out. I don't expect to see anywhere near as many, though, as the Mavic 3 Pro releases... as lets face it, a lot of that was still tied to the covid mess.
In the meantime I've been downloading 6K All-I (all intra) footage from Billy Kyle and Ian in London. I'm sure I'm missing something here but I thought that All-I footage should be similar to Prores and easier for my desktop to process, not harder, especially as it's a Mac. Instead, when I try to play a file on quicktime it is blank and even good-old VLC is stuttering, but albeit playing, the 6K files. When I drag a file into Final Cut it's blank, and in Davinci Resolve it simply says "media offline". I've actually up-resed .mov files to 8K in the past and they've played fine. Also my mac is no slouch being an Ultra Studio M2 so the actual processing power shouldn't be the problem. Anyone with ideas on an All-I workflow?
