Blackmagic Design, a company specializing in the production of professional video cameras and video processing systems, about the release of a proprietary color correction and non-linear editing system used by many famous Hollywood film studios in the production of films, TV series, commercials, TV programs and video clips. DaVinci Resolve combines editing, color grading, audio overlay, final processing and product creation in one application. Simultaneously beta version of the next release of DaVinci Resolve 16.1.
DaVinci Resolve Builds for Linux, Windows and macOS. Registration is required to download. The free version has limitations associated with the release of products for commercial film screening in cinemas (3D film editing and color correction, ultra-high resolutions, etc.), but does not limit the basic features of the package, support for professional formats for import and export, and third-party plug-ins.
:
- A new DaVinci Neural Engine platform that uses neural network and machine learning technologies to implement features such as face recognition, Speed ββWarp (creating timing effects) and Super Scale (zooming in, automatic alignment and applying a color scheme).
- Added support for quick export from the application to services such as YouTube and Vimeo;
- Added new indicator graphs for advanced monitoring of technical parameters, using GPU capabilities to speed up output;
- In the Fairlight block, added waveform adjustment for correct synchronization of audio and video, support for three-dimensional audio, output of bus tracks, preview automation and speech processing;
- Existing ResolveFX plugins have been improved to allow for vignetting and shadows, analog noise, distortion and chromatic aberration, object removal and material stylization;
- Optimized TV line imitation, facial smoothing, background filling, reshaping, dead pixel elimination and color space transformation;
- Added tools for viewing and editing keyframes for ResolveFX effects on the Edit and Color pages;
- A new Cut page has been added that offers an alternative interface for editing commercials and short news videos. Peculiarities:
- For editing and fitting without zooming and scrolling, a dual timeline is offered.
- Source Tape mode to view all clips as a single material.
- A fitting interface for displaying a border at the junction of two clips.
- Intelligent mechanisms for automatic synchronization of clips and their editing.
- Selection of the playback speed on the timeline depending on the length of the clip.
- Tools for transforming, stabilizing and creating timing effects.
- Direct import of materials at the touch of a button.
- Scalable interface for working on laptop screens.
All DaVinci Resolve:

- Support for ResolveFX and OpenFX plugins;
- Tools for stabilizing and tracking images on the screen that do not require the creation of reference frames;
- All image processing is performed in the YRGB color space with 32-bit floating point precision, allowing brightness adjustments without re-color balancing in the shadow, midtone, and highlight areas;
- Real-time noise reduction;
- Complete color management at all stages of the process with support for ACES 1.0 (Academy Color Encoding Specification). Ability to use different color spaces for the source and destination material, as well as for the timeline;
- Ability to process video with high dynamic range (HDR);
- Color grading based on RAW files;
- Automatic primary color correction and automatic frame matching.
