Do you think DR 19 beta 3 is already usable?

Excluding the "fusion" module, do you think the editing and color tab are already relatively stable? Or do they still have to mature more?

I would like to try the new AI features, such as "Noise Reduction Ultra", but I am afraid that this version will be very unstable.

How stable it is for your computer, os, drivers etc. can be known only by yourself.

It really does not help at all if I say it's stable enough for me, on my computer and the features I use.

Just install it making copy of all the current settings and projects beforehand. And if it's not good enough continue with the stable version.

I have to agree with Panu. I haven't tried Noise Reduction Ultra, but as far as editing and color, I've had no problems on my system.

I believe an edit system should be dedicated to editing. Which means one would need a second machine for other activities like web browsing, email, office, games, etc.

Use that second machine for testing.

It studders while DR opened.

Not only in Davinci Resolve, it studders on while using your computer if DR is on.

It is almost paradoxical, because the other user who has an i7 from 10 years ago has not had any problems xD

Now I'm testing it with my i7 Alder Lake, 2 generations behind the current one.

tested on my Haswell laptop with rtx 780 no issues so far

I use lesser hardware than you and have not noticed any stuttering.

Used DR 19 beta 3, at night, for basic editing, and some color adjustments with "Magic Looks/Red Giant", tried "NR ultra", with no problems to report the first night.

i7 12700/Rtx 3060 12GB (Last Driver Studio).

I was also wondering - how about M1 Mac users, anything to report?

All good for me. I NEVER use beta software for jobs, only for testing.

I am now using beta 3 on my main system, I needed to use the UltraNR.

I heard you have problems with the fusion tab, but i rarely use that tab normally.

Who did you hear that from? I have never heard of Fusion tab problems, only some bugs and specific user issues.

I only heard in the odd YouTube video that they have tested beta 1.

"fusion" is the tab that I use the least, I haven't tried it yet in beta 3, at the moment I don't need it.

I think maybe that's because Fusion is a relatively new addition to davinci, and it also works a little differently than the rest of davinci.

Sorry for false alarm guys. I just re-installed latest driver with "clean installation" section. Studdering is totally solved

Didn't you find any other problems? I see you were trying a lot of knots and so on? How do you like the stability and performance?

Tried Beta 2 & 3. So far no issues at all.

I tried it today. Few stuff missing in fusion that should be there, but so far over all, feels snappier and I like the overall improvements. few crashes in fusion, but that can happen in other versions as well, dependent on what your doing. I would not risk using these beta release if you are working on projects for clients, but if you are testing or working personal stuff you don't care if you delay in case of issues than it should be ok. Its definitely very functional, just not obviously as reliable as final versions. Although there has been few times where I had lot of crashes with some point version, but they usually get fixed. There are some specific bugs people have reported that have not been fixed in few versions, so that is part of the danger if you need those specific things. If you can, install both beta and final release. Just in case.

I was using these days, now I had a problem with my project, I can't load it... I used NR, Supercale and stabilization, there the program simply couldn't handle it. I can't open my project anymore, please need help!

Open an older version of your project, right click on your project > Project Backups

Or else go back to an earlier version of DR and restore the older database, assuming you've backed up your database before upgrading.

Actually studdering on Davinci Resolve still continues. Driver re-install didnt solve it
I've tried everything to solve but nothing.

About workflow, i use magic masks, defocus background, CST in and out node tree, face refinement, relight and DCTL... almost everything on a feature film. Davinci Resolve 19 is perform %10-15 better than 18, i can say that very clear.

How did i calculate that? almost all effect play at realtime on my system now. I just struggling while using Neat Video ( latest ) on 4K timeline. It was plays 12-13 fps while in Neat NR used on Davinci Resolve 18, but into 19 it plays 15 fps.

I use anamorphic lenses and just noticed a post from another user with a Lumix S1H doing anamorphic de-squeeze failing to have it work with proxies.

That's a pretty big deal for me, so no DR 19 Beta 3 is not ready.

Please state more info on your system.
How is your disk space set up? Do you have dedicated drives for video and/or cache files?
Running everything from one disk is a no no.
Also.. What OS and version? etc. See people's footers.

Isn't Davinci's "NR" better?

Why is a "Neat video"?

IMHO, Neatvideo is still better for critical cases (it's a NR plug-in for DR). I found Ultra NR considerably slower on my hardware and not really better. But YMMV, in particular on Nvidia.

I found Ultra NR...not really better.

Not better than Neat? Or not better than Resolve's other NR methods?

Not better than NV.

i've just finished a week with a feature on 19.b3, client attended, went well overall, nothing major, a few wobbles, wheel stayed on the cart tho

- magic mask is reliable and super useful now, and it got a major workout on this show
- ultraNR is a first choice now, on a difficualt shot it produced noticably better resualts, 2x producers, director and DP all prefered Ultra + Temporal -to- Neat (this shot had no place for Neat to anylise, had to use the generic template), i did not have DVO installed on the machine i was working on
- Neat is the killer app for beating flicker tho, used it there to great effect
- new color tools are real world useful
- film look is not real world useful

w10 + Nvidia

- film look is not real world useful

I've found only one project so far where I preferred the Film Look Creator results over the native camera colors.

(But that one was was actually shot on the GH4, so...yeah. BMD cameras be that good! )
