Curious if any other users of DaVinci Resolve 19.1 have seen an issue that I and another person recently noticed with clips shot in NRAW format in DX mode, either 1.5x or 2.3x crop at any frame rate.

Anywhere a thumbnail of a clip is used within Resolve, it has a very strong magenta cast, like green is missing in the thumbnail file. The files themselves and the images shown in the GUI, clean feed or actual renders are perfect, strictly the thumbnails...as per the attached image. This occurs with either my Z8 or Z9. Clips shot in FX mode do not exhibit this issue. How about anyone with a Z6III?

As it turns out, over the last few days I've done a major upgrade to my edit system, new Mobo (Asus Z890 Prime), new CPU (Intel Core Ultra 7 265K), new memory and upgrade to 24H2 version of Win 11...as well as recent upgrade to Resolve Studio 19.1 Build 12, but the GPU is still the RTX3090 that I've had for a couple years, so no change there. Not sure if this is a Resolve or Nikon issue...or something else...too many variables changed all at once.

Would appreciate anyone running an earlier version of Resolve on a PC checking this...as well as anyone running on a Mac. I'm going to contact both Nikon and BMD about this.

Thanks!

The bright pink thumbnail is what first alerted me to this matter...files 5103, 5104 and 5110 are shot in FX mode and look normal, though yes they're underexposed. All the others were shot in a DX mode at various resolutions and frame rates. The timeline in the media bin looks normal, as does the view window in the GUI. That is the image that looks hot pink in the Media bin.
