I really like this transparent square shape overlay effect used in the first second of this video. How do I recreate it in DaVinci Resolve?

Hey guys i am thinking of learning da vinci resolve and for that i can either get a pc or a laptop but the thing is i am thinking that if later on i want to learn specific course on da vinci in another city then pc would be a problem and laptop might be better but i saw on websites people no course provides you with info that you cant learn online so i am stuck.

I was annoyed that there's no notification on Resolve. Found the documentation and did this. It's customizable with both sound and message as it's basically a text. 😊

This is my first time using this editing program, I was used to being able to keep both the media content panel and the editing panel open at the same time, but with this program, I don't know how to keep both active without one closing when I try to open the other. (I´m not rlly good with english so, sorry if i not being very clear)

Even with the latest DaVinci update, Mac users are still experiencing color and contrast differences between Rec.709A and Rec.709 Scene.

Question:

How would you go about transitioning from this part to the other clip?

Ideally, I would have them curve with the paper, but is that even possible? Anyways, cheers!

In the bmd main web store, it will costs me 425$ to buy it from the PH, which is really steep due to our new taxing laws. And after scouring the threads and internet for a while, i found two sources which I can buy it cheaper. But I don't know the legitimacy of them so I'm looking for opinions.

Price from BMD Webpage:

One is ToolFarm

the other is

Would like to know which is safer to buy?

Hello, I was trying to make subtitles and when I tried to go back and edit the text it would not let me. How can I edit what I already wrote down?

Hi Lads,

I have shot all my videos in 60fps (slowed to 30fps to make it smooth) in log.

I have tried planner tracker and intelli tracker but the tracking does not work at all.

For planner tracker I have used all the modes and put the tracker point in different areas as well, but it looks like the gif attached.

Intelli tracker works a bit better but it still looks warped or not smooth.

I have shot so many versions with different settings but nothing looks smooth.

I use dji rs4 gimbal in PTF and FPV mode. PTF is better but not smooth as expected.

Please let me know if there are any settings to be changed in my camera or gimbal,

Regards

TLDR: Point tracking not smooth after repeated methods and various camera/gimbal settings.

Hey guys, wanted to ask does anyone know like a method to export a long video in parts and then combine them in DaVinci Resolve? Cause I have a 2 hour video which really like to crash in the last 30 mins. It happened a couple of times already and one time there was 25 seconds left till it'd be done...

So I was wondering if I should render separate clips like 30 mins intervals and then combine all of them in the timeline again already rendered and do a final render.

Specs: 5600x, 9060xt 16gb, 32gb ddr4

Version of DaVinci Resolve: 21.0.4 Build 5

Hi everyone, I am very new to color grading.

We shot a clip using the wrong camera settings by mistake. Would it be possible to "save" the color using color grading? It was, unfortunately our best take :')

(I've added what the image was supposed to look like for reference in the second pic).

Thanks a lot!

my computer doesn't seem to be under load and is pretty beefy. footage is hd.

i suspect it might be a video file in particular doing this but i really don't know.

please help.

Audio is visible, clearly, but there's absolutely no sound. Nothing is muted. I tried every medial file on my pc, inccluding mp3. Most of the media is obs recordings, still no difference. I've exhausted all options. Tried restarting, tried reinstalling, pretty much everything.

Idk what to do...

I'm using Resolve 21. Windows 11.

Spent around ~1.5 weeks on this project, primarily using AE for texturing and mograph, and DaVinci as an NLE for SFX, Magic Mask and just in general finishing touches.

Dealing w/ Rotobrush and audio on AE can definitely be a pain sometimes, so this just makes the process easier on me.

Essentially, I export a lossless ProRes master from AE and drop it into Resolve, then I do my sfx and final additional fusion tasks just in case using adjustment layers. Also, even though I used/learnt DaVinci first, I always forget how perfect the audio sync is (as it should be lol)

Has anyone else moved to a hybrid setup? Maybe with other softwares? Curious how you guys handle the round-tripping or if there are any specific tools in Resolve that would make this handoff even smoother.

Does DaVinci need a strong PC to run effects smoothly, or at least maintain 30 FPS during playback when effects are enabled? Cuz I have an ASUS TUF A15 with an RTX 4050 6GB, Ryzen 7 7435HS, and 16GB DDR5 RAM, and it can barely run effects smoothly during playback

I want to change the border color of this specific text style to black (its currently blue), but i dont want to create a whole new Pre-set and set everything up. Also i want to keep the words coming up right as the word is said (in the video), so basically just how this Preset already is. The thing is up until now i have to manually change every border from blue to black :( Help would be very much appreciated

New to da Vinci but managed to make a short video with ease after figuring out the basics and I’m very happy with my end result. The major problem is that after exporting/rendering the video quality is noticeably worse almost to the point where it seems like 25% less sharp. Even waaay worse is that I tried to upload the video to YouTube and the quality is just a nightmare pile of blurry mess not even close to the original I see on the software. I uploaded using the highest possible settings but the final product is seriously a pixelated mess you can’t see any details. How do I upload to YouTube without such a massive quality loss? Using da Vinci 19.1.4 on a iMac. I can’t upload screenshots because reddit isn’t allowing me to post this on a computer only my phone.

im making gaming video where there a multiple people talking and there are multiple povs and i was wondering if there is a way to make subtitles like this where the name of the person talking is visible and there is a little image next to it
