I hope you enjoy my DaVinci Resolve 18.6 tutorial for beginners. I've put a lot of effort into making it beginner-friendly. If you have any questions or if anything is unclear, I'd be happy to answer them here in the comments.

Hey @christianeggbauer, First Question of many: Frame rate settings should match the camera settings?

Second Question: What is your workspace settings? Would be nice if there was a section early in the video walking through the workspace... what is what and why you have it set up the way you do, even if it is preference.

@christianeggbauer 6 ай бұрын

First of all thank you so much for your follow 🤩. I really appreciate it. Secondly sure, on the right top you should have the button "Effects", I assume it is not active. Just click on it and then this toolbox window should appear. This button is right below your main menu on top, close to Trim / Timeline; it looks like a wand with stars around it. Another possibility is to check your Workspace Menu on the top "Show panel in workspace" and select "Effects or you simply also could reset your UI, also in the same menu appr. in the middle. Hope it helps 🙂 All the best!

@dmac7344 14 күн бұрын

Excellent video. Question: What does the stablilization do exactly?

@christianeggbauer 14 күн бұрын

The stabilizer, or warp stabilizer, analyzes unwanted movements that cause the video image to shake and attempts to compensate for them. This works quite well with minor shakes, but less so with more severe ones, resulting in these jittery movements. This form of stabilization is not like the IBIS (In-Body Image Stabilization) in a Sony camera, which moves the sensor to compensate for movements; instead, it is digital. DaVinci calculates everything and tries to correct it. There are three versions that use different algorithms to achieve the best possible result. Hope this helps :)

Hi thanks for your feedback and happy it helped; in regards to your missing menu; normally it should be there out of the box, never disappeared tbh here, you can try to go to the upper menu and select workspace and reset ui, this should reset your user interface to the default one; maybe there is also a point which is able to activate this menu again. I will check it afterwards, because I am currently not on my PC.

You can check the file on your computer in which frames you recorded the video on your phone. Right click and check the settings / attributes and then pictures per second or frames per second.

Adjust your project settings accordingly, go with 30fps when the files are in 30fps, etc. Check out my other video about Slow Motion and Framerates; there I explain everything in detail 👍

Great start to the video but when I went to upload my video into the media pool, it asked me to access the folder then said unable to access the folder. My file is a .MOV file and I’m working on a 2015 MacBook Pro running iOS Sonoma. Is this normal? I’m so annoyed as I was finally taking the dive to learn video editing. I haven’t had issues with iMovie but it seems to be incredibly limited in its abilities.

I am not working on a MacBook but no it should work when the videos are not in 10bit in the free version; I would search for the error message; apparently you can not access the folder maybe you restricted it or you need permissions? I would check this out. Mov files work fine in 8bit I do it all the time with my iPhone files 🤷‍♂️

Hello. Thank you for your presentation. I do have a question. I am a true beginner, trying to learn Davinci. After I follow your steps. I do NOT get the screens you are working from. I don't see the screen on the lower left showing Toolbox Column and the list below starting with Audio transitions. OR immediately beside TOOLBOX is Dissolve and the column below it. starting additive dissolve. On the upper right hand corner, your screen shows transform. How do I arrive at your screens?. Thank you for your help.

You‘re welcome. When there are not all elements, go to the menu on the top to Workspace; there you can find the Show… submenu items; there you can select Show Panel in Workspace and simply select media pool or effects. You can also click on the buttons on the top left, media pool or effects; when you highlight effects you see the toolbox and other stuff 👍 hope that helps 😊

My videos apparently aren't loading into davinci. Is there a fix for this? I dragged and dropped a mp4 video and there's no background image. When I try to play it, the software freezes and i have to close it. I've waited like 5 minutes for the 63mb file.

@christianeggbauer 8 ай бұрын

Hi, that is unfortunate. It seems that you are using 10bit instead of 8bit. 10bit files can not be used with he free version. This was one reason why I bought the Studio. Normally if you don‘t shoot in log and do a lot of color grading 8bit is enough. If this is not your problem maybe reinstall DaVinci again?

@christianeggbauer 8 ай бұрын

Hey, I am using a windows 10 and 11 PC, usually on Mac you should use the *.mov format. It also can be that you are working with 10Bit files? Davinci resolve Free is only able to handle 8Bit files, or it is restricted, this was one of the reasons why I bought the studio version (although I use most of the time 8Bit, because I am too lazy to color grade SLOG3 haha). But I assume 8Bit Files should be possible to be imported on a Mac as well, my Sony camera produces mp4s 🤷‍♂️, maybe another Mac User can help you out on this here? Last option I see is to transform them to *.mov with a video converter, but this would be too much effort
