Davinci exporting a black screen with only audio

I'm trying to export a few timelines, and they're only coming out as a black screen with only audio. I original video files are blackmagic raw, but I'm exporting at 1440x1080p. They also take a really long time to export even though some of them are less than 10 seconds. When I put the exported "videos" back into my Davinci media pool, it gets put in as an audio file even though the file is labeled at .mov. Is there any solution to this?

I'm pretty sure there is a solution.
But without even knowing if you have gameplay or camera video, a computer or a tablet, it's difficult to give any advice.

Which hardware (CPU, GPU, RAM, disk I/O)? What specific version of Resolve? What OS? What timeline settings (res and fps)? What framerate? How does your drive rate with Blackmagic Speed Test? How is the drive formatted and connected? Which GPU drivers are installed? What are your cache settings? What format are you trying to render to? Do you have any Fusion compositions in the timeline?

In general, Blackmagic Raw plays pretty well and can render to just about anything. Why choose a 1440x1080 format? Where are these files intended to play back?
