Replacing clip
Hi,
Im working with a RED 4,5 K project.
I need to replace one of the files with a VFX-shot (DPX).Lets say the DPX is without timecode and without correct name.
Just an easy replacement.I know it was not possible in the first versions of Resolve, but is it now?

Sure, just load it into the media pool, make a new video track and drop it onto it.
And if you are going through a high number of iterations, do youself a favor and use the same filename for all future versions, keep track of them in seperate folders and always make a copy to the initial source.
Then you only have to load it once.
Oh, and let them know if they render without timecode and proper names, they better sell icecream 😉A slice of color…

When I try to replace the way described in the manual, Resolve tells me that “the replacement clip does not have sufficient content”.

No, no , dont replace anything.
Make a new video track and keep your source.
That is also vital to back track VFX and stuff.
Replace only works if you get the exact same clip WITH proper length, timecode and so on.
If you already have grading on your source, middle click it to get the base grading and then manually copy paste all node (why, oh why) to get all the animated ones into your nodes too.
Then you can compare source and VFX (only in the Conform, not in the Color page, again, why?) to each other and check for frame offsets or other problems.A slice of color…
