Resolve Studio 16 --> 17 - entitled?

PostTue Mar 30, 2021 2:00 pm

Hi BlackMagicDesign,

Most likely a simple question. I have purchased a Studio some time back and finally I have it delivered to me today. It is dongle and software for the version 16.
Am I entitled to upgrade to Studio version 17?

Thank you in advance,
Andrey

I'm not Blackmagic Design, only a user, however, the answer is YES.
So far, DaVinci Resolve license, both activation key and dongle, are version ignorant.

I use a dongle I purchased back at version 12. Works fine for every version since, including 17.

Don't install 16 and then upgrade, just go straight to 17.1.1. from the web site.

I've visited the site and I can see only the "normal version, but not the Studio.
Where could I download studio from?
