Today we announced DaVinci Resolve 18.6.3 update which adds support to sync media from network folders for cloud projects.
This means the project owner can now sync between their Blackmagic Cloud Store and any network attached storage drive or folder, allowing cloud workflows on high end projects that use large amounts of shared storage.
There is also a new option to prevent sleep mode while uploading files or generating proxies so these functions can continue uninterrupted regardless of your computer’s settings.
DaVinci Resolve 18.6.3 update also adds support for a new dialog menu that appears when importing projects to a cloud project library. This means that you will be prompted to configure project settings such as media and proxy storage location at the start of your import, making sure your project is correctly structured from the beginning.
When it comes to delivering your project, you now have the option to select proxy media rather than camera originals for web presets, saving you unnecessary processing and speeding up your delivery workflow.
There is also added support for decoding 4:2:2 HEIF and HIF clips, allowing you to use much higher quality footage shot on smartphones.
This software update also adds a number of stability improvements, including improved popup window management and control for Macs running Sonoma 14.1, better transition deletion when working with clips that have in and out ranges applied and improved speed performance when ripple editing large timelines.
There is also better handling of saturation for HDR images when using custom curve soft clip and for DaVinci Resolve Studio, improved audio syncing when bouncing audio with voice isolation.
