Thereʼs a black band all the way around the finished project (see image). I have no idea how it got there. Itʼs not in the source video. Itʼs easy enough to crop it afterwards with another app, but to me it seems like I shouldnʼt have to. Is there a way to fix this? Did I do something wrong (setting/whatever)?

Most likely explanation is Operator Error.

Have you completed any of the training books for Resolve yet?

Thanks Jim! Thatʼs just the information I needed. The reference manual that comes with the app assumes a little more experience. It IS more of a reference

Yeah, Paul did a really great job with those manuals. i found them very helpful.
