Getting started with Reactor

[SecondMan]

Woops. Thanks for reporting, link is fixed

I hope you guys can help me. I am running Resolve Studio 16. I can't instal reactor by draging it into the fusion tab, so I am trying to do it by console. I runs through till step 7/8. It says "Opening Reactor", but all it does is open the folder it installed reator to. And then nothing happens. It never completes installation and I can't find Reactor when clicking on Scripts in Resolve...

[SecondMan]

I hope you guys can help me.

I hope you can give some more information

Is this Windows, Mac, Linux?
Is it the latest version of the installer script?
What is the console output during installation?
Have you read any of the other troubleshooting posts and topics?

[sascha2494]

I sure can, my mistake^^
I have two systems, both have the same problem.
Both are running Win10, intel CPUs, one with a GTX1070 the other is a laptop with now dedicated GPU. Both are running the latest version of DaVinci Resolve & yes the latest version of the installer script was used.

When I enter the script into the console, everything runs through until the following is displayed:

Installation Status Step 6 of 8

[Showing Reactor Folder]
C:\ProgramData\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve\Fusion\Reactor\System\

Installation Complete Step 7 of 8

Opening Reactor...


It then opens an explorer window (C:\ProgramData\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve\Fusion\Reactor\System) where I see a "Scripts" folder and two files (Reactor.cfg & Reactor.lua). Nothing happens after that. The console stays open....

I'm sorry, just found a thread (Reactor fails to start on W10/DR 16.1.2) from rudiklein having the same problem. I guess I'll wait over there until a solution is found

[SecondMan]

just found a thread

I'll link to that one here, then: https://www.steakunderwater.com/wesuckl ... 121#p28121

Hi guys!

I have a question about Reactor. I am unable to configure Reactor correctly. At work, Internet access is configured through Proxy. Apparently this is the reason. The question is how to configure Reactor so that it works on my network.

PS. Reaclor is installed, but has no filling. the list is empty. When disabling Proxy, everything works as expected.

With respect. MSeredkin.

When disabling Proxy, everything works as expected

Your proxy settings are not something Reactor can do anything about I'm afraid

Reactor gets everything it needs through cURL, so you may simply have to configure cURL to use a proxy connection always.

Is this Linux? First place I'd look into is your ~/.curlrc file... Your systems admins should be able to help you further.

I am trying Reactor for the first time. I was interested in it for the Suck Less Audio plugin. I am on Arch Linux. After creating /var/BlackmagicDesign/ and adjusting the permissions, I was able to install Reactor. Unfortunately Suck Less Audio isn't in the list of atoms available for install. I have found the atom in the GitLab repository and will try installing it manually, but I am wondering what might have gone wrong to make that atom not show up in the list of available atoms. My Reactor.cfg PrevCommitID seems to point to the HEAD commit of the GitLab repo which contains the Suck Less Audio atom, so I'm definitely confused.

[SecondMan]

I am confused, too. It would be one thing if nothing worked, but for a particular atom not to be available...

When you type "suck less audio" in the Reactor search box, what do you see?

I have Windows 10, but the question is removed due to moving home and reinstalling all the software. The reactor at home works as expected.

Without searching for anything, I see a number of atoms

When I search for "suck less audio" I get no results. "suck less" gets a few results, but no "suck less audio"

[SecondMan]

That looks very incomplete. You installed using the latest installer?

If so, try resyncing the repository.



And if that doesn't help, go into your Reactor/Systems directory:



and post your Reactor.cfg file here.

[benbergman]

Yes, I believe that is the page I downloaded the installer from. Going into About Reactor I see I have version 3.14 - December 6, 2019 installed. I have done the resync several times, both before and after my earlier posts.

My menu navigation is a bit different than yours, but perhaps that is a custom configuration on your end? Below is my menu heirarchy and my Reactor.cfg.

Oh - are you on a Mac?

[benbergman]

No, Arch Linux. I've installed Resolve through the AUR package repository.
