Maybe 10 bit? Free or Studio? Windows or Mac?

I can think of two general explanations here.

1. The operator isn't doing something correctly.

2. The software isn't doing something correctly.

I want to check on 1 before moving onto 2. Have you had a chance to complete any training, Shalom?

A new section of the Beginner's Guide to Resolve starts on 16-December. Highly worth checking out if you are new to Resolve.
