== X11 or Wayland ==

DaVinci Resolve can run on ~~both X11 and on~~ Wayland.

Currently, DaVinci Resolve can not run on native Wayland. This is due to qtwayland version mismatch. See [https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/341634 nixpkgs issue] .

If you want to maximize your chances you can try and start davinci in the following way to check for ROCM or Rusticl support

Line 120:

Line 95:

<code>ROC_ENABLE_PRE_VEGA=1 RUSTICL_ENABLE=amdgpu,amdgpu-pro,radv,radeon,radeonsi DRI_PRIME=1 QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb davinci-resolve</code>

== OpenFX Plugins ==

The usual install location <code>/usr/OFX/Plugins</code> is not available on NixOS. Fortunately, DaVinci Resolve supports loading OpenFX plugins from locations specified in <code>OFX_PLUGIN_PATH</code>. This environment variable can be configured comfortably by adding the following code listing to the system configuration:<syntaxhighlight lang="nixos">

environment.variables = {

OFX_PLUGIN_PATH = lib.concatStringsSep ";" [

# specify plugin packages here

];

};

</syntaxhighlight>Plugins usually contain a directory called <code>$PLUGINNAME.ofx.bundle</code> with a <code>.ofx</code> file somewhere inside of it. Since the coercion of a package to a string outputs its store location and the paths specified in the environment variable are traversed recursively, it is not necessary to specify the precise location of the ofx bundle in the nix store.

== Troubleshooting ==

=== Resolve crashes/fails to start ===

If it doesn't launch, and crashes when running <code>davinci-resolve</code>, then try running it as root.

Line 145:

Line 126:

If DaVinci Resolve shows a popup asking to review GPU configuration in preferences, and if there is no GPU detected in "Memory and GPU" in preferences, you can try the following in your <code>configuration.nix</code>:

<syntaxhighlight lang="nix">hardware.graphics = {

hardware.~~opengl~~ = {

enable = true;

~~extraPackages = with pkgs; [~~

amdgpu.opencl.enable = true;

~~rocmPackages~~.~~clr~~.~~icd~~

};</syntaxhighlight>

];

};
