  • Actually, it's never out of beta ;-)

    Well, seriously, if you don't skimp on hardware, it is pretty stable now. Just save frequently if you go into the Fusion tab. The integration of Fusion is a huge project, BM themselves state that it'll take 12-18 months (counting from NAB 18).

  • Resolve 15 is out of beta since today!

  • Actually, that specific DJI footage is bringing down QT player too and even VLC. It can be transcoded by Resolve, though.

  • 1.It stops as soon as it encounters a H.264 file in MP4 wrapper, even if H.265 in MP4 works fine (at least out of a Samsung camera, a DJI drone's HEVC is killing the beta). You can re-wrap your footage into MOV

    Yep, very rare format :-) Testing is strange at Black Magic.

  • Just a heads up for documentarists who are already using 15(beta).

    There is this feature now of trimming GOP formats too with the Media Manage function, which should be great for those with a very high shooting ratio, like wildlife or such. Unfortunately it has two bugs, one with a workaround.

    1. It stops as soon as it encounters a H.264 file in MP4 wrapper, even if H.265 in MP4 works fine (at least out of a Samsung camera, a DJI drone's HEVC is killing the beta). You can re-wrap your footage into MOV, a fast process without any loss of image quality, to make it work. Unfortunately, while Resolve can read the TC from MP4 (like out of Sony A7S), but most cheap tools for re-wrapping don't. From my experience only Kyno does, but that's a bit expensive.

    2. If you happen to use two overlapping parts of one source in your timeline, Media Manage will only keep the first one. Ouch! Two separate parts are preserved as expected though. Handles and everything else working fine.

    Maybe someone with a cheap tool for re-wrapping that preserves TC could chime in on that.

    P.S. After some experimentation I found a solution for number 2 as well. If you drag one of those overlapping clips back from the timeline into the media pool, making it a virtually independent clip, the whole footage needed is in the trimmed version.

    P.P.S. The little program MP4toQT (both for PC and Mac) is keeping the TC out of Sony mp4, but it crashes with GH5 mp4 files. Retaining the TC is crucial if you want to roundtrip between programs.
