• Timecode out when in the edit page over SDI/RP188.
Works great in color room & deliver room, but when in the edit room it doesn't output anything.

• Ability to use both "copy and trim" and "relink to new files" at the same time when media managing timelines (I think this used to work in resolve 12?)

• Copy local grades to remote grades (new versions created for non-identical grades for same clip source)

• Some type of AE style mesh-warp as a resolve FX

• Disable Output Blanking in deliver page

• Automatically re-smart cache transitions etc when blanking changes (shots remain blanked currently unless re-cached manually)

• Ability to freeze frame a node at a specific timecode/current frame (for when using key lock and cloning) (not sure if this is possible)

• make offset wheel a bit more intuitive to access on big panel and allow it to be used with 4th trackball on tangent element

• a bit of attention to the mc color mapping (shadow/highlight control & master offset next to contrast/pivot would be lovely)

• A relatively simple one click option in the stabiliser to smooth out the shot (like smooth cam/warp stabiliser). Compared to how simple it is to track, doing simple stabilisers sometimes can be fiddly with less than ideal footage.

• Make clicking on keyframes a bit more forgiving in color room especially for pen&tablet. Might just be me, but I can never get my wacom pen to work on them (can click & drag fine, but if i click on them they won't stay selected) Have to use mouse.

Can we please get rid of the annoying "No color correction information is stored in the still" error pop up..

I hate that thing with the fire of 100 suns.

The idea is:
I have the long footage, and I want to use couple fragments from this one.
Now, the only way to do it is cutting the footage at the edit page.
Why not create multiple IN/OUT points at the review stage on the MEDIA tab? Then, after dragging to the timeline, the footage should be imported as the series of clips according to the markup.


Double click the clip in the Media Storage page, mark in/out points, right click the bar, create subclip. Repeat. All the subclips created in this way will be added to the media pool. Don't think anyone would want to do this without discrete subclips, even if the system allowed it(?)


Yes, but why not multiple in-out then "create subclips"? :) It will be much faster anyway, and easy to manage the project if you will be able to see all working fragments together in the one source footage.

I think this is the most vital change if Davinci wants to be a finishing and/or editing package!!! But I think it is a huge one, as it seems that it underlies the entire Resolve paradigm.

better, let the user define % for both horizontal and vertical independently. that is one of the few thing I miss from quantel.

and I could have up to 3 aspect ratio at the same time (the safe Area lines)

How about presets and a user defined option? This way we know they are accurate without having to look up all the details and still some user defined presets.

I want (more that my clients want) a big timecode window to pop up for my clients reviews. Also RP188 timecode comes through to external scopes/monitor when reviewing in colour or delivery. I'm doing more reviews from the edit tab as I'm updating subtitles etc more than grades so it would be great to have the embedded timecode coming via SDI when in the edit tab too.

Someone mentioned clone stamp that would be great. The only thing I miss from Media Composer is the paint effect. Tends to get you out of a bunch of situations and has clone within it. There are other handy bits but clone is the main one. Also adjustment layers or effects would come in handy. I have tried to replicate the way it works in FCPX using an empty title but it's a no go. You can kind of make it happen with a compound clip but that isn't ideal, I may want an effect to go across multiple edits or easily place it throughout the timeline or extend/reduce etc.

You can apply the equivalent of an adjustment layer to an entire timeline in the color page -- switch the setting from clip to timeline, upper right. But unless you create compound clips, the effects are applied either at the clip level or to the entire timeline, nothing in-between.

That decision is up to Apple, not BMD. My observation is that I don't think BMD would want to rock the boat with Apple by encouraging a 3rd party company to provide a plug-in that could allow pseudo-ProRes under Windows.

Gee, the timecode font can go all the way to 540 lines (this screen grab is 320). How much bigger does it need to be?

IMHO an open API to build resolve third party extensions would be enough to solve this issue.
specialized software houses are offering similar products for other software as well (i.e. drastic technologies mediareactor). they are apparently more successful dealing with apples and pears (and penguins).

I'm after an adjustment over a few sections. Not the whole timeline. This is more from an editing point of view. a quick example would be to create a transition that zooms in and has an OFX bad tv effect on it. I just want to take that and pop it over a bunch of cut points or have a look that is over my flash backs or pretitles that also includes scanlines, or other effects and I want to be able to layer them wherever I like and have them effect the below layers. Easily done in Prem Pro, FCPX and Avid, one of the few things missing in Resolve. Compound clips can get messy very quickly. I like to be able to look at my timeline and be able to see exactly what is going on where, also makes it easier for anyone at my company taking over a project.

I don't want to burn it in on my output. I want it in the GUI. I may have a lot of effects that enabling this would require rerendering. Also I want to be able to monitor my scopes correctly and not have them effected by the timecode, also don't want the timecode taking over the reference monitor and potentially cover something of importance that we need to pickup in the review like a dead pixel etc.

It would be a nice feature, but Avid, Premiere and FCPX integrate color correction and adjustment layers into the editing timeline because color-grading is at most an after-thought and the timeline is where everything takes place.

Since Resolve offers two distinct applications, I'm not sure you can expect (or that professional graders would want) the same level of integration from the editing timeline, any more than Avid or Premiere integrate Protools or AE into their timeline GUIs.

I agree that the notion of layer- or track-based adjustments may be out of the context of Resolve's heritage. However, if Blackmagic truly has aspirations for Resolve to become a full-flegded NLE, competing with the likes of Premier and Media Composer, then this type of functionality needs to be addressed. There are an endless list of editorial scenarios where this is required.

Now THAT I would like. At the moment, the Gallery signal chain is before the timecode.

OK, but that's not what you originally asked for.

It sounds like what you want is two simultaneous outputs, one that has visible timecode in the picture, and one that does not have visible timecode in the picture.

When I review with clients, I typically make the timecode small but readable at the very bottom left or the very top left, right at the raster, with white level at about 60 or so. It's bright enough to be seen, not so bright that it's distracting. I think the timecode comes almost last in the chain and does not have to be cached in the case of a node cache situation. If you're using optimized media, I can't help you.

There is hardware available that will superimpose visible timecode in the image using HD-SDI connections and normal analog timecode audio inputs. Evertz is a good choice -- I think their units start at around $1200.

Working with audio plug-ins needs a bit of help. For example, displaying the parameters in the inspector without a disclosure triangle can mean a lot of scrolling just to go and find the GUI button for the next plug in.

I'm in agreement about the individual timeline resolutions and frame rates over project based. This is a feature I've been hoping for as it's something I'm able to do in Premiere Pro without blinking.

Hi,

I wish to have the possibility to define which Audio-Tracks of the source files are mapped to which audio-tracks in the timeline.

Let me explain:
X-AVC always has 8 audio-tracks. I normally use two of them. Track 1 for the microphone on the boom pole, track 3 as a sync-track with the built-in microphone of the FS7.

So it would be very handy if I could define, to import source-track 1 to timeline-track 1, source-track 3 to timeline-track 2 and to ignore (don't import) the other 6 tracks.

Thanks.

And the Audio options of the "clip attribute" menu don't allow to do that ?

I like the way sone software implement this.

I think is resolve could be easily implemented as [effect clip] that look like any clip from editorial point of view, but it does not contain any media. if you go to the color page, the clip will just get the input from whatever clip result is underneath and apply the node structure.

you can easily span multiple clips, creating a layer effect.

That is why Adjustment Layers are needed.


I like the way sone software implement this.

That is pretty much the definition of an Adjustment Layer. It'd be a great new feature foe Resolve.

OK, but that's not what you originally asked for.


More like the attached which is just a screen shot of the timecode zoomed in. I get this all the time in client viewings. I have external hardware at my office for this (although when in edit mode timecode doesn't come through) which I use there but when I'm onsite with clients I need to have timecode up in the GUI as I do with every other NLE so would be handy to have when needed. Timecode on the monitor is a no go as I can have 5 or more clients that all want to see it for notes and I can't have it impacting the reference monitor.

Hi all,
is that really different to the group level nodes (and effects) ? (effects and nodes you can apply to a number of clip, between one and the all timeline) ?

For the timecode window, this would be really useful. I remember that in the first version of FCPX, there was a plugin for that. So maybe an OFX plugin that pops up a window with the timeline TC inside could do the trick...if any developper comes by... :mrgreen:

yes it is, you cannot use the groups to workaround certain situations.

let me explain: assume that you have a shot with in v2 a graphic, you want to do a global effect: either you do a compound clip of that or you cannot get the result and go for it.

you might already use the group for, you know, groups.

that's funny. AFAIK, resolve had the same aces implementation than baselight, I really don't know what are you getting the info.

edit: http://acescentral.com/t/no-davinci-resolve-section/555

if that is what are referring to, I still have to see issues with aces in resolve, (and I saw some with OCIO in nuke that should not have been there).

Media Management
Files which cannot be trimmed (which are supposed to move or copy instead as a default) sometimes crash the Media Manager or give errors which no not help fix/determine the issue. A possible list view/breakdown of files/actions would be of help prior to starting the process. See Resolve Collect for the Mac and pay Nicolai Waldman for a windows version.

I like the idea, but I cannot use it effectively... also the gamut only have meaning of match the display used, otherwise is meaningless.

For the 13th DaVinci Resolve version,
I would wish the resolve an alternative
For which PhotoRam is reworked.
A great alternative to Lightroom.

In addition, I would like functions for the timelapse editing.

Thank you very much

Request: Bolex Log and Bolex Wide Gamut RGB support for DNG decoding

There are tangible benefits to using Bolex Log and Bolex Wide Gamut RGB--compared to BMDFilm--when decoding DNGs. It would be as much of a benefit to BMD camera users as it would be for Digital Bolex users to have Bolex Log and Bolex Wide Gamut RGB supported in the Camera Raw panel of DaVinci Resolve.

The biggest benefit right now is that highlight information that exists >5 stops above middle grey would be preserved instead of clipped. This affects nearly every BMD camera at some point, especially when you're exposing for higher ISOs. Considering that more cameras are beginning to support DNG encoding while also expanding their dynamic range and base sensitivities, this is only going to become a bigger problem in the future.

The specifications for Bolex Log and Bolex Wide Gamut RGB are documented and published openly by Eddie Barton, Digital Bolex's colour engineer. As a BMD and Digital Bolex camera owner, I'm invested in getting the best image I can out of my gear and hope that BMD will consider adding these options in future revisions of the Camera Raw panel.

theoretically, can you debayer linear light out of the bm camera, and use a mathematical formulae with a dctl to map out to the bolex space? it should not be difficult.

Multiple viewers, with the ability to assign each to a node (a la Fusion) would be at the very top of my list.

Cheers.

Let us float the viewer window. Please. Give a giant popup that warns about the inaccuracies of moving it over to a monitor that isn't properly calibrated or fiddled with by the OS, but let us decide if we want to run a dual monitor setup, or even just to have the viewer window sit off to the side of the monitor for someone like me who owns an ultrawide. I understand this may seem like it'll cannibalize your hardware decklink/ultrastudio sales but I'm pretty sure any serious colorist isn't going to try and circumvent buying one of those. For the plebs like me, maybe we just want real estate and we understand we're not necessarily getting the best color out of the mix, but I should be able to take that viewer window and put it where I want.

Multiple fps timelines in a single project

Version up several clips at the same time.

Delete several nodes at the same time (as would be expected when you drag a marque over several nodes and press delete).

Export individual source clips with baked time ramps (can't believe you can't do it now).

Support for nomals pass.

Choice of dissapearing window and bezier curve UI upon dragging like in baselight (this is real tiny stuff i know you can have it on in the ui and off in the main monitor but this functionality is just really handy in BL).

1. "Repeat Last Operation". An example use case is adding a particular flag to a series of clips. You add the flag to one clip, then select the other clips in batches or one by one and trigger the repeat last operation via its hot key or dedicated CS button. Sure you can ctrl-click to build up a selection, but if you miss click you could accidentally deselect everything before you've made an operation on the group and need to start again.

2. "Undo history" view similar to AP with ability to see what the history items are and to jump back and forwards over multiple items.

3. Make undo work in all cases. Adding a flag, for example, cannot be reversed with undo, and if you do use undo expecting something to be undone and nothing appears to happen, it's unclear whether or not something did happen and what it is.

4. Option for scene detect to add a single clip with cuts rather than individual source media items.

5. The start of an API to allow and encourage innovation in areas such as control surfaces. If we could just could connect to a socket, authenticate, and then send JSON packets to adjust parameters values and trigger actions it would be HUGE. If we could subscribe to receive JSON packets when things happen in the interface, it would be even more awesome. There's so much untapped potential by not being able to do this.

It would be good if when you selected a clip and hit match frame, it would match for that clip, ignoring the auto selection controls (ref. p372 manual). It's a hassle to turn them on and off just to match frame. This already works for "find clip in media pool" where you have select first.

- To be able to add a node to a TextTitle. For grading or fx.

- Keep transparency of a compound clip.

- Double-click in media pool to import media.

- Curves for position keyframe.

-When we drag'n drop a file from bin to timeline, it always move the playhead at the end of the clip. Would be nice to have an option to not move the playhead.

- A shortcut/button to export an image right from the timeline.

- A new timeline created from a clip could have the same name by default.

:D
