Trim tool has weird behaviour

PostSun Jul 29, 2018 2:17 am

My trim tool and deleting gaps in Resolve is behaving strangely; I've screen recorded it to better explain.

Normally, it doesn't make a difference which track (Video or Audio) if you use the trim tool or select a gap and press delete. However, I've been finding that from Audio it will ripple the change across all tracks, but trimming or deleting gaps from the video track won't affect the audio track. This can be seen that the clips have warnings on them that they are offset from their linked audio. The clips are absolutely linked, otherwise that wouldn't be happening.

Does this happen to anyone else? Anyone know what caused this?


Disclaimer: I'm on the public beta of Resolve Studio. This started halfway through beta 6, and has continued in beta 7, so I think I've just hit some setting accidentally that changes the behaviour.

Probably related: If I click a clip that has audio linked to it, and press alt/option + y, it won't select any audio tracks.

Hiya. It's my Day 1 with 15b so not really qualified to advise. However, I had this problem and it was because I didn't have my Auto select
Code: Select all
<>
switched on audio track A1.
FWIW. Thanks!

Check the state of the autoselects ( the [< >] buttons here) in your timeline:
