Opening Mac Resolve project on PC possible?

PostSat Jun 09, 2018 3:28 am

Ive got a project started on a Mac using largely .mov ProRes 422 files shot on a UM4.6k. If I export a drp and copy my media over to a an exfat Drive, is there any reason why I shouldn’t be able to pick up the project and continue editing?

I know I can’t export ProRes in Resolve on Windows but can I still read the media and work with it?
Configuration:
Resolve Studio (Always the Latest)
Windows 11 Pro Workstation

i'd suggest useing the archive function if you are already copying media +DRP, it does the same but takes care of file paths for you

if copying media nd making a DRP, you will need to either change source folders, relink or re-mapp the drive, all options work cleanly in my experience

we transfer archives (and drp's) commonly between systems, no issues other than fonts and some OFX
