JPo, thanks for the help. I did see the ability to output metadata to a CSV file. The next step in my workflow is Premiere, which as far as I can tell is not able to read these metadata files.

There’s a lot of different possible workflows that involve Resolve. Ours goes like this:

Camera > 4K Raw Video > Resolve > MXF HD (or other hi res codec) > Premiere > Final output

We are not round tripping here, just using Resolve as first pass color correction and de-Bayering step. This is similar to how you would use REDCINE-X. Almost like an ingest step, where additional metadata (think keywords, scene rating, scene comments) are added.

Anyway, for this workflow It would be nice to have Resolve pass the metadata through to next step in the pipeline.

Open to suggestions on other ways to make this pipeline work.

I tested this combination and it works great.

Test platform:

Windows 7 x64
DaVinci 9.02 Lite
Blackmagic Multibridge Pro 2
Latest drivers from Blackmagic
HDMI monitor

I should be testing an HD-SDI monitor shortly and will report here in the off chance that anybody is interested.

They got rid of the “-” in their URL. The old URL was forwarded but it took some time probably to get the change propagated.

Thank you for this procedure. I am able to get this to work pretty well. Converting Resolve’s MXF DNxHD file into QT DNxHD files takes 0 seconds. The files are a reasonable size, look great, and work well in Premiere.

I thought I would add a bit more information here that might be helpful other users.

The official ffmbc site is here:

Compiled ffmbc for Windows can be downloaded from here:

Avid’s QT codecs (including DNxHD) can be downloaded from here:

https://avid.custkb.com/avid/app/selfservice/search.jsp?DocId=372311

Now the only thing we need is a way to get Premiere to output a DNxHD codec file that Resolve will open. Using the above Codec, Premiere will render output DNxHD QT files, but Resolve does not “see” these files.

Has anybody had success with this part of this work flow?
