When I nest one timeline inside another the sound does not play. There is even a waveform on the nested timeline. Put a clip on this timeline and it plays sound.

Apologies if someone else mentioned this. 7 pages full of text is a lot to look through.

AUDIO is still very messy to deal with.

I cannot archive and back up my project because of WAV files. No idea why. I remove the wave files 44khz 16 bit from the project and it backs up fine. When I look at the new backed up folder I notice that it took my wave files and split them up into pieces like _S001.wav _S002.wav etc.

I am completely unable to use Media Management to archive my projects which sucks because manually copying folders to a hard drive to back up forces me to keep tons of media that I didn't use in the project (more space).

Will someone please help me with this? Getting failed to export because of certain wav files. Possibly because of their length.

I have quiet a few other bugs and crashes I can report but this is the one I really need help with.

For your sanity: Your best bet is to STOP using 14 for production projects. The deeper you dig in the more pain you will suffer. Bite the bullet and recreate the project(s) in 12.5.5.

Improvement of 14: You need to get sample projects with the logs that contain the errors over to the support team ASAP. I've been sending all my 'stuff' to @Rohit Singhal

Paul Fisher wrote:I was wondering if there is a way to install a 12.5.5 copy of Resolve without overwriting the install of the new beta (on Mac). I tried installing 12.5.5 today and the only destination option I was allowed was "Macintosh HD" . Maybe if I rename version 14 apps to something else in the Applications folder?

Mal Owens wrote:Here's a list of bugs I've encountered in Beta 3 while working on the latest project:

- Audio playback inconsistent with the audio volume (caching??)
- Audio playback at times stops playing
- Audio with VST plugins at times either don’t play, or the plugins can’t be adjusted
- Keyframing audio doesn’t work consistently
- There is a difference in audio quality between Fairlight and Editing pages, especially on levels and clipping
- Adjusting the volume on a clip doesn’t affect playback of that clips levels. Restarting fixes forces Davinci to play it back at the proper level
- Not all audio tracks playback in the Colour Page (maybe because "Insert" activated randomly at some point)
- The “Insert” button in Fairlight seems to activate at random which interferes with audio playback.
- Audio playback on Edit Page out of sync, especially after some Fairlight or Colour work
- Power windows aren’t working properly. The affected area inside the window is severely offset or scaled down, even without any softness applied.
- Undo doesn’t step back through the last series of steps sequentially. Some previous steps are skipped
- Audio Snapping doesn’t seem to be active for aligning audio clips to other audio clips.
- If grading is disabled in a project and that project is saved and closed, the grade becomes re-enable when reopened. Is this expected functionality?
- Window layouts aren’t remembered/saved when reopening Resolve.
- Updating an external file should auto-magically roll into Resolve and update the assets in the edit. e.g. an after effects animation that’s been tweaked and exported again with the same file name should just update in the timeline automatically as in Premiere and FCPX.
- Audio waveform moves position within a clip when that clip is dragged
- Audio waveform fails to redraw properly when zooming
- There are crackles present in the exported audio where tracks have VST plugins from Izotope RX6, almost like many pops on a vinyl record. These crackles aren’t present during playback previews, just in the rendered export.
- Horizontal mouse scrolling in Fairlight zooms the timeline rather than moving left and right. I feel this should have the same experience as the other areas of Resolve.
- Addition of a Solo button for audio in the Edit Page. Flicking back to Fairlight to switch it off (when I forget) is a little cumbersome.

Did you manage to do this with beta3? Can't speak to Mac, but this sort of maneuver, which worked with b1 and b2 in Windows, doesn't work with b3.

1. Same here, crossfade on audio does absolutely nothing.
2. Major issues with relinking footage. Had a graphic, updated the graphic in Photoshop, went back to DR and the graphics wasn't updated, could not find the refresh option link like in DR 12, unlinked footage and when trying to relink the file it came up as "Media Missing". Deleted the graphics from media browser, loaded it in fresh and still same issue showing "Media Missing".
3. No compression or tools in Fairlight tab? I assume more are coming, currently just EQ and pan for audio tools.

DR 14 Suggestions:
1. exclude titles from timeline color correction: I haven't found a way to do this except through keying. often we have titles over color corrected footage and on the timeline color mode, it messes with the color of titles and graphics.
2. Trim all highlighted clips. Ofter we have many layers of non-linked clips that we want to trim or extend when highlighting multiple clips and going to trim DR only trims the clip I am on unselecting the other clips I intentionally highlighted.
3. When relinking footage, offer the suggestion of where the footage used to be located. Premiere does a good job of this with "Old Path" and "new path" in the media link browser.

If I set both an In and Out point and this happens and edit my clip to a timeline its the wrong in and out point, so it's not just a graphical error.

Update: I have a dual monitor set up. When I double-click a clip in my bin on the left monitor and it opens in the source window on the right monitor and I scrub through setting in and out points they are incorrect. Once I simply move the cursor so the arrow is in the right monitor the in and out functions properly.

1) Fairlight Tab: Green Flashing at various screen element. NOTE: I believe this is a problem between Resolve 14 (1,2,3) and the RX4 and 5 series video cards and drivers.

2) Edit/Fairlight Tab: When deleting a video/audio track on the Edit tab does not delete the audio on the Fairlight tab.
