Several Features not available for Windows Free Ver ?

PostSun Nov 22, 2020 5:21 am

Namaste,
We have downloaded and successfully installed 17.1 Beta Ver.
Several features mentioned in the launch do not appear as stated in the video launch :
eg: 1. The 'Smart Align/ Transform ' for Square aspect Ratio. I dont see the option at all under the Flip options
2. Magic Masks are not featured either.

Question : If I purchase the studio version will these be available ?

Thanks and regards

These are DaVinci Neural Network processes that require the Studio version and a modern powerful GPU.

Thank you for the reply.
I added one more pc to our workgroup with the free version. I realised, that the collaboration feature is still just with the studio version? I thought in the video it was declared to bring collaboration also to the free version. Or did i got it wrong?

I believe in the near future a separate download for the collaboration features will be provided for the free version.

Thank you for your response ; I guess I can wait for the final release before opting for the Studio Ver. Question :
1.If I purchase the studio ver will I also get updated versions or do I have to purchase again when a new ver. of the software is released ?
2. I experience many hangs and crashes ( I'm using a Nvida 2080, 64GB RAM ,550GB SSD) .Are these normal ? and will they be taken care of in the Studio Ver. ?
3. We are about to purchases the ATEM iso pro. Do we get the Studio ver of Davinci as part of the bundle?
Thanks and really appreciate all the folk at the Blackmagic Design team for such a wonderful product

BMD have offered no cost upgrades since v8 and currently we have no plans to change that process but we have also not guaranteed it. I expect we will keep providing no cost updates.
Hangs and crashes need to be reported with logs, system info etc as per FAQs so we have info to work with. Often the issues are GPU drivers which unfortunately also often get messed up with Win10 updates
Atem Iso Pro does not inc DaV Resolve Studio but if you order DaVinci Resolve Studio at the moment the Speed Editor is included at no extra cost. This is a limited time offer.

Namaste Peter,
Thank you again for your prompt response; the information you provided makes a strong case to upgrade. Along with the 'Magic Mask ' and other filters it should be justifiable .
I live in India close to Mumbai or Pune city. Can you guide me to a dealer who will provide me a Studio ver. with the Speed Editor. We would also place an order for the ATEM ISO Pro with the same dealer. I've tried serval listed vendors from your website ,with little luck.
Thanks again ,

Peter, I thought I saw/ heard / read somewhere that there was a download that would provide collaboration facilities as a temporary measure until v 17 was released. Is that correct?

I have 1 studio version and 1 free version in our office. The free version is used occasionally by the admin . girl for captioning - like a couple of times a month. It would speed up the workflow of we could work off the same database.

So you are using the dongle? A key can be installed on two stations.

Namaste ,
I'm still hoping to get a response; Also just wanted to confirm that 'detect scene cuts ', 'magic masks' as well as 'Smart reframe' for Social media are features that are only available in the Studio Version.
I want to purchase the Studio Version but still have to receive confirmation that the Speed Editor will also be sent as part of the offer. I don't want to miss out ! please help

You are not the only ones suffering from a lack of supplies. I tried to get my hands on any Apple M1 in Indonesia. No chance!
I know it's not much of a consolation.
