DaVinci Resolve not recognizing iGPU

Cornflake@lemmy.wtf to Linux@lemmy.ml – 51 points –

Hey there folks! I recently made the switch to Linux and I really want to do some editing using DaVinci Resolve. My computer is running an intel i7 7th Gen with no dedicated GPU. I used this tutorial to get through the initial installation but now the app just crashes warning "Unsupported GPU Processing Mode," advising me to "Please review the GPU drivers and GPU configuration under preferences." This is what I see when I go to that menu. Any idea what I need to do to make DaVinci recognize the integrated GPU?

DaVinci Resolve does not support Intel cards under Linux. Not iGPU, and not even the DEDICATED Intel cards. No Intel at all.

I had to switch from resolve when I moved over to Linux. I've had luck with kden live, hope that helps

Thank you! I'll adapt to using kden, I appreciate it

I went through this recently and was not able to resolve it. Unfortunately, it looks like there is no way to use Resolve with an iGPU.

Di you have an Optimus computer with 2 GPUs? Is your computer using a nvidia card? If so you might look into prime -> arch wiki.

You may or may not have to start D-resolve in a terminal prime-run %command% to force prime render offload.

It's just an intel i7, there's no dedicated GPU, no separate graphics card. The program doesn't seem to recognize the CPU for an iGPU.

On Linux? There's no iGPU support in Resolve so that's just uh, not going to work.

That's a Windows-only feature for whatever reason, so uh, sorry?

Thanks for letting me know, I think that's the best news I can get so I don't go on a wild goose chase trying out random drivers with no success lol

Yeah, I was looking at what would break moving to Linux, and that came up in the list of shit.

I was confused as to why they didn't implement that in Linux, since I mean, how hard could it be?

But alas, it's not, and the official position is 'we're not going to' so there has to be some technical reason.

Sorry, that's all I got. Best of luck!
