What OFX plug ins for DaVinci 10 will you get?
Now that we know v10 will support OFX plug-ins. What is on your shopping list to use with Resolve. My list currently is:
Neat Video: By far my favourite de-grainer, which is also CUDA accelerated.
https://www.neatvideo.com/Key Light: So I can grade and key in the same application and deliver finished comps.

Neat (unless Davinci’s new noise reduction will be awesome), any de-stabilizer, any better keyer than Resolve’s build in.

Free da-vinci software but the plug-in is around $3000…

Well, at least something I can still justify my prices with 😉

Are you sure it works like this? I know OFX is an API designed for cross compatability (i.e. mac/pc/OSversion/32/64/etc.), but not sure if I can just plug in a bunch of Nuke ofx and they’d work. I think they still need to be written for the platform. Can anyone correct or clarify this?

Good question, I forgot to ask at the show. But they did say at the moment temporal ofx like Neat not supported (yet). But the built in NR is going to be much better…

Since Scratch has Mocha pro integration, (and scratch is also in the same ofx boat), wondering if its code owned by scratch or mocha. If it belongs to mocha, there’s a good chance they’d roll it over into resolve. And that would be friggin fantastic.

+1 Sapphire!
Wondering… Are there any Open-source/free OFX plugins out there? Maybe with such a large user base there will be a huge increase in development of OFX plugins for resolve.

They’re saying any OFX plugin should work.
Granted, they’re unsupported, so if it crashes you look at the manufacturer, not BMD. They were demoing Sapphire at NAB. Some companies may make Resolve specific versions supposedly..

As far as I remember, there are specific OFX versions of Sapphire for Baselight, Scratch, FimMaster, Smoke etc. Obviously OFX version are much more expensive, than the ones for AE:-)
Scratch’s integration with Mocha is a simple script. There is nothing proprietary in that and nothing would prevent BM from doing the same. I talked with Mocha people about Resolve integration and they asked me, if I would help them in putting then into contact with BM. I even passed the card from Mocha engineer to one of BM higher ups. Will see… As far as using Mocha in Resolve, I can’t say much right now. But I can say, that soon you may not need Mocha at all. Sorry for being so cryptic:-)
The same goes for Neat Video. There will be no reason to use it or to pay for it. That is unless you’re still using resolve Lite. The built in temporal noise reduction in resolve promises to be of top notch quality.
Actually OFX plugins open a new pandora box.
First, the quality built of OFX plugins may affect the stability of Resolve. That’s the price of opening the platform to third party developers.
Second. What happens with Remote Grading. Let say you want to use a plugin. Do you ask the other party every time you want to use a plugin, if they have that plugin. Do you ask what version of plugin they are running? What happens, if you try to use it and it’s not there or if it is wrong version? Will the session get terminated at that point, like it does with wrong version of Resolve? Or your Resolve will crush? All of a sudden, it’s doesn’t sound that appealing to those, that use resolve for Remote Grading….
