Davinci Resolve Studio install Issues

44

After quite a bit of debugging the “unsupported gpu processing mode” message on my AMD-based laptop, I realized that the NixOS Resolve packages have broken OpenCL support. You can build them with OpenCL support using this overlay:

  davinci-resolve-studio = prev.davinci-resolve-studio.override (old: {
    buildFHSEnv = a: (old.buildFHSEnv (a // {
      extraBwrapArgs = a.extraBwrapArgs ++ [
        "--bind /run/opengl-driver/etc/OpenCL /etc/OpenCL"
      ];
    }));
  });

With that, Resolve seems to work great on my AMD internal graphics.
