1 frame after

PostThu Apr 17, 2025 8:02 pm

If you press the “O” key, for some reason it is always selected 1 frame ahead. Because of this, instead of just selecting the clip I have to press the “left arrow” on the keyboard after selection. How to fix it?

It selects up to and including the frame you are currently viewing and of course a frame has a duration which is reflected by the output point.

As an alternative if you want to set in-out only for selected clips, press Shift+A.

Shift+A with long clips is not quite convenient to use, but for Shorts it's the best. Thank you.
Still I think that it is necessary to fix it and make it select not by current frame but by playhead.

Most NLEs have decided to do it this way, it's not a bug but a design decision. Otherwise you wouldn't be including the frame you are viewing.

The playhead looks forward, or to the right if you will. So at an edit point, yeah...you're looking at the first frame of the next clip.

True. A long time ago, I believe that daVinci 2K (the predecessor of Resolve) did require an Out point on the first frame of the next scene. They changed that with Resolve around 2009 to follow the paradigm established by almost every pro editing program out there.

The way things work right now is - if you select both in and out points on the same frame you are basically selecting that one frame. If it would be changed to the way you want it selecting both in and out points on the same frame would result in selecting nothing or “zero frame duration” and no one needs that in any situation, it is best to be avoided.
