Bug Makes Multi-Track Video Trimming Essentially Unusable

PostTue Jun 27, 2017 1:24 am

Davinci Resolve's two-up and four-up trimming displays only show the footage from the track being trimmed. This is okay if you only have one video track.

But when trimming an edit that ends on one video track and resumes on another video track, the two-up and four-up displays are useless.

This is because they won't show both the outgoing and incoming frames (because the outgoing and incoming frames are on different tracks). This makes trimming multi-track video ***incredibly*** tedious. Needless to say, Media Composer, Premiere Pro and Lightworks do not exhibit this behavior.

Here's a YouTube video:

Definitely better in 14b6, but actually not the there yet.

As titles in 2-UP Display still don't show the video underneath. This makes trimming titles a considerable pain.

Not a fix per-see, but new code to implement the new feature.
That's another off your list Peter.
