dissolves
hi everybody!
how does davinci handle dissolves? and specially cross-dissolves? is there a way to let resolve understand what to do via a simple edl import?
glad for any comments…

Did you try it ?
Works like a charm, perfectly fine on a 1 track edl in v7.
Or lets put it that way :
Whatever you can put in a CMX3600 edl, Resolve will do it out of the box.

thx sascha!
one question though:
should i tell the editor to do the dissolves in fcp with the “clip overlays lines” or with the normal “dissolve plug-ins”.sorry for my strange english 🙂
or does resolve know to translate both right…?
any experiences with that? -
Sure, I actually witnessed em editors using opacity animation most of the time.
Those and also normal dissolves come through just fine.
But better save that sorry, just ask for a minute of test , with the effects he prefers.
then you both know what to expect if following the same pathA slice of color…

hmmm….
well, i did some tests today. only the normal dissolves come through fine,
the opacitiy animations are simply ignored…am i missing something?

Yeah all the projects I’ve conformed from FCP have had to get rid of opacity keyframes and just use standard cross dissolves which work fine.

To answer you all. I had a session today. A music video, with loads of dissolves, but they were keyframed. Let’s just say “With Resolve 8 you can do anything”.

Amen 🙂
