Refresh image after update?

PostThu Feb 04, 2021 9:14 pm

Is there a way to refresh an image in Resolve after I made changes to it elsewhere? Right now it seems to be stuck on the old version permanently, even if I create an entirely new timeline. The only thing that works is to shut down Resolve completely and restart. That can't be right! Using 17b8. Thanks!

You can Relink media (or something similar, I can't remember the name exactly) in Media pool. That opens up a file dialog. Go to where the file is located and press ok. That refreshes the file.

But yes, there should be a Refresh command.

Thanks.

I actually narrowed the problem down a bit more. It does in fact load the current version if I click play. That's good! But the freeze frame in the viewer after I click stop or move the playhead around is permanently stuck on the original version I imported. I guess that's a separate issue. Maybe there's a way to clear the viewer cache?

Is this problem unique to 17?

Ah too bad. Guess it's not going to be fixed any time soon then. Not a huge deal, just a minor annoyance in some situations.

Update: I filed a bug report about this. Rolled back to 17b7 in the meantime and the behavior is much better. Still a little flaky, but much more manageable.
