Mavic 4 Pro All-Intra

Nick_Crown07 · Sunday at 2:08 AM

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.
