Mavic 4 Pro All-Intra

[Nick_Crown07]

I just bought the Mavic 4 Pro Creator Combo. I’ve recorded internally in All-I (All-Intra). I can’t play it back on my MacBook Pro M4 Max — neither in DaVinci Resolve Studio nor in QuickTime. QuickTime just shows a black screen. VLC tries but it’s really choppy. Have I missed something here? DaVinci Resolve just says ‘Media Offline’. Has anyone else encountered this and found a solution?

Yup... looks like you're SOL with a Mac at this point.

Editing and previewing All Intra (All-I) footage

May 16, 2025

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...

funny enough, a friend of mine with an un-updated mac running m1 could playback my h264 all-I but his mac with an updated ios cant.

It's working fine like it should on my old m1 equipped MacBook but same issue on my Mac Studio m2 Ultra chip. I found a workaround for that for now only for Davinci Resolve. Open DaVinci Resolve Preferences (keyboard shortcut: CMD + ,) > Decode options > uncheck "Decode H.265/H.264 using hardware acceleration and restart the app.
no solution for FCP so far and for premiere pro, it should work fine.

Thanks man, that did the trick for me. Not sure if there is a downfall to using this yet but at least my footage isn't showing as "off line" anymore lol.
