i know im randomly asking but does someone know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb forgot my login password. I love any tips you can offer me!
@@CreativeVideoTips Hey thanks for the great video! Do you still need to disable timelines if you have the following unchecked? Preferences > User > Project Load and Save > (uncheck) Load all timelines when opening projects.
I knew about the resolution and I had seen another video about proxies but it didn't say to check use proxies! So I thought it was useless until I watched your video. Very informative and a cool delivery. Thanks dude!
2 big thanks. 1) Thanks for not jump cutting the heck out of your video. It's very easy to watch. Nicely done. Also, 2) Thanks for providing a tutorial/how-to that doesn't spend am inordinate amount of time going off on tangents. Yours is a great example for how to create such content -- tell us what we need to know and move on. Again... nicely done. I'll be back - I'm in the process of moving my home studio from PPro CS5 (yes, that's what I said) to DaVinci.
Thanks David - this is great feedback. It's definitely tempting to get into the jump cut world and I might from time to time - but only to try to achieve your 2nd point. You certainly are a veteran if you are coming from the Adobe CS days! I might still have some of those boxes in storage :). Cheers!
Same here, except I switched from a bootleg version of CS6 to DeVinci Resolve. Ever since I switched I deleted and removed all my CS6 stuff, I will never go back to Adobe even if I became rich and could actually afford the stupid "Pay to play" set up that Adobe now does.
Bro you are the MAN!!!! , I got so tired of spending so much money to make my video editing faster. I rarely have time to figure this stuff out and this has helped me so much. THANK YOU.
Can I just say, I really, really appreciate you just being you in these incredibly informative and clear uploads you make. No 'let's get into it... shapang...' 'here we go.... shwooom....' 'look at that... we did a real nice thing... yeah, baby, look at that real nice thing we made.' nonsense. Just friendly, knowledgeable advice. I appreciate your wisdom. (shapang).
I really appreciate your videos. The more my content evolves, the more snags I encounter, but the more your tutorials are able to un-snag those snags. Thank you!
That's so helpful, I'm just getting started with da vinci resolve and I think this will save me a lot of time and frustration that I have had with other programs. Thank you!
I've seen a fair few tuts on creating proxies but this has some nuggets that are new to me. Thanks for the share man. Super useful with the Pocket 6k pro joining my arsenal :-D
Thanks Chadwick! I just actually watched this a second time and I had forgotten your tip to disable timelines. I think it made a big difference because I had a lot enabled. When I disabled the majority of my timelines my computer worked more smoothly. Cheers....
I just started adding 4k GoPro and 4k M50 camera footage to my editing mix. The Lag was killing me, and then I remembered this Video you made. After reviewing this video, I NOW understand what I needed to change. Thank you Chadwick, I am now speeding through my rough cuts. and enjoying the editing process again. This has been an experience changer. I really appreciate all the effort you put into help us by sharing your experience.
really it helps me out with h.264 high L 5.1 firstly it got chopped after this proxy its butter smooth man really i need to thank you, thank you so much
I'm a media music composer who documents his journey on RUclips with high-quality (at least for the audio niche) edited videos. Your Resolve tips and tricks improve my workflow by a lot :) Thanks!
Phenomenal Information! You are my Go To Guy on Davinci. Just got back from holiday and all efforts after compiling all vids on the final rendering hit me with hang-ups and stuttering frames. I followed your instructions to the letter and my final cut was on point. You're a Guru My Dude! Thank You!🐒😎👍
I am just farting around because I ordered the speed editor mid Feb and still have not received it. My skills video wise are super basic but I have used Adobe products my whole life so I appreciate the fast and hard facts and the time you dedicated to making this information easy to digest and.. holy cow!.. No 15 second diatribes that feel like 15 minutes of fury. Cheers brother. You just may make me convert to Blackmagic.
man William - that stinks, I wish I could hurry up the delivery of your order! I appreciate the kind words so much! I'm not trying to get anyone to change software programs, just pointing out some things I like about Resolve because it is a beast - but I'm glad to hear that it doesn't feel like I'm wasting anybody's time - that's my goal. (sometimes I need to slow myself down because I get too excited)
Hi, I'm using the Resolve Speed Editor. Love It! No one has talked about the Speed Editor Cam buttons functioning in the Cut page to control the video track selection. I'm able to click Cam 1 / Cam 2/ Cam 3 etc to select which video track I want to drop my video and audio track to. I can also select which track to manipulate. Do these buttons function for you. Great Channel. Thank you for all your Davinci Tips!
Hi! Me too. Yep that is a great little hidden feature of the cam buttons! It’s like a little Easter egg. I cover that in one of the videos on the speed editor on the channel. I think it’s in the cut vs edit page video. Good find and tip!
automatically SUB. one of the best tutorial, to the point. and video timeline, no BS or ADs. I love it, you deserve more SUB. Keep up the good work brother
For anyone that couldnt import vlc files using windows: Delete the clips in the media pool, convert vlc to H.264 and replace with the same name in davinci. Then in the timeline, comfort, right click on a clip and "Conform lock with media pool clip"
Great work! I'm just going to suck it up and start using proxies. I just do home videos but I really wanted to try resolve, after having used a few other editors (since the beginning). 18 months later I own Resolve Studio and speed editor. Would I do Resolve again? Well, Resolve will do way more than I will ever know, but I don't think so. I spend too much time working the sophisticated controls in Resolve. It's probably way more than I need, but I wouldn't switch now either. I like having a library of projects I can go back to later. My biggest challenge is staying organized when I have more than a hundred clips. Cheers.
another tip I have found on page 161 of Beginners Guide Lessons - the online DaVinci Resolve tutorials - "TIP You can switch back to the Keyframes Editor and hide the video scopes when the scopes aren’t needed to free up your graphics card’s processor and improve playback performance." Hope this helps someone else as well. Cheers my friends.
This is quite funny because I was thinking about this vis a vis the process in FCP and see that FCP has an easier process for sure and prior to v17 Resolve did not have this option! On my crappy iMac I would have been severely hindered, I tried original and proxies in FCP and the experience was is similar r to what you demonstrated
very useful I think for the longest time I was using GENERATE OPTIMIZED MEDIA instead of proxy media hence never feeling like it ever worked ------but this video surely cleared up a lot of performance curiousities
Dude I love you so frigging much right now!!! I never look forward to editing because it's so sluggish but this changes everything, it took me several hours of render [4 cams around 2 hours of footage] but now it's perfect!!! My catch phrase is gravy, but in this case it's all butter baby!!!! THANK YOU!!!!
Hey mate -- just a note to say thanks for doing such good tutorials. I use Resolve daily on a professional level daily and mostly appreciate your workflow optimization tips. Just wish BM would address audio mapping from a multicam clip to make it more like Avid or Premiere so it can be used in professional reality, episodic, and other long form multi camera programming with separate audio. We always end up in Resolve for color anyway... would be great to stay in it the whole time as our NLE of choice.
Hi! Your videos really helped me to level up my Davinci game. But coming from Adobe I still have one thing that I can't solve: I have lots of projects in which I have to use Insta360 rectilinear (5760x2880) video files with vertical 4k Sony files for outputting a 1080x1920 video. To reframe and animate those Insta360 videos I use an effect that needs the timeline size to be the same of the Insta360 files. No problem at all if I set the scaling method to center crop with no resizing and output to the same. All scaling works between different resolution timelines. However, even after generating proxies for my files, when I'm animating keyframes with some grading I end up with choppy playback, so I thought about lowering the timeline resolution just like I used to do in Adobe apps. But doing this I end up with the clips in lower resolution in my timeline, and if I change the scaling method to scale full frame with crop compensate that, sizing is completely different. Is there any extra step I'm missing or any secret trick to be able to lower timeline resolution without messing clip sizing? I've tried adding an adjustment layer with 4x scale, but no luck.
One of my DJI source files is 4K, H.265, 413MB. The proxy file generated is 1080p, DNxHR SQ (2nd lowest quality), and 5x LARGER, at 2.24 GB. I'm going to need a LOT of disk space for DNxHR proxies. I'm assuming a couple of things about DNxHR: 1)it's less compressed and therefore takes less GPU to decompress, and 2) it's a less demanding experience compared to your pick of MP4. So it's really a tradeoff between disk space and CPU/GPU. If your system is slow then you need a proxy with less resolution and less compression, along with more disk space.
Very true statements. You can also try doing it at 720p to save more space. Dnx was created to edit. H265 for capture. A major difference is the was a frame of h265 depends on surrounding frames to decode. Dnx is always intraframe so the computer only has to look at one frame to display one frame.
I use ffmpeg to convert all my files to DNXHD (scaling or changing fps at the same time if needed) then pull only the DNXHD into the media pool. This gives perfect scrubbing etc, and I know that it is good to go the moment I open Resolve, whereas letting Resolve create proxies can take ages. Not that the ffmpeg route is faster, I just know when it is done I can edit without any further delays. For really big projects I can let the conversion run overnight, whatever is needed. One project I did was editing down 6 hour long Zoom meeting recordings, a scrubbing nightmare on the MP4 files, super smooth on the DNXHD files.

Yo man thanks a lot for the video, really helped my workflow out a lot, Im just curious...what's your pc hardware setup ?
i know im randomly asking but does someone know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account..?
I was dumb forgot my login password. I love any tips you can offer me!
Wow didn't realize that all timelines stay loaded into the RAM even when you're not using them. Thanks for the tip! Sub'd.
Absolutely, this was one of those “blackmagic cares even about performance and not just the dazzle me features” updates. Glad this helped!
@@CreativeVideoTips Hey thanks for the great video! Do you still need to disable timelines if you have the following unchecked? Preferences > User > Project Load and Save > (uncheck) Load all timelines when opening projects.
Literally dug up 4gb of ram sitting in an old server just to have enough ram for lol
Definitely the best tutorial on proxy workflow I've seen so far. And I know because I just watched all of them :D
Ah man! Thanks so much, I’m so glad it sounds like it was helpful.
Still great information 3 years later. Thank you
I knew about the resolution and I had seen another video about proxies but it didn't say to check use proxies! So I thought it was useless until I watched your video. Very informative and a cool delivery. Thanks dude!
Thank you. Not only do you go step by step but you explain each step, more specifically "Proxy Media Format".
Also that bonus tip was super helpful.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
I’m loving your videos man, nice, simple and positive vibes. Shoutout Resokve gang, I’m new but already loving it so much
Appreciate it!! Welcome to the channel and software! :)
2 big thanks. 1) Thanks for not jump cutting the heck out of your video. It's very easy to watch. Nicely done.

Thanks David - this is great feedback. It's definitely tempting to get into the jump cut world and I might from time to time - but only to try to achieve your 2nd point. You certainly are a veteran if you are coming from the Adobe CS days! I might still have some of those boxes in storage :). Cheers!
Same here, except I switched from a bootleg version of CS6 to DeVinci Resolve. Ever since I switched I deleted and removed all my CS6 stuff, I will never go back to Adobe even if I became rich and could actually afford the stupid "Pay to play" set up that Adobe now does.
Bro you are the MAN!!!! , I got so tired of spending so much money to make my video editing faster. I rarely have time to figure this stuff out and this has helped me so much. THANK YOU.

(shapang).
I liked this before I watched it because this is the moment I’ve been waiting for
bro, you the best! i was looking at this but didn't found anywhere. thnk you.
No you’re the best! Cheers for easier playback, haha.
Absolutelky loving all the tips! I jstarted in DR about 2 weeks ago and your videos are very helpful! Thanks and keep rockiin it!
Just thank you, sir! Was watching like 5 videos before this one! None worked! But now I am happy to this Generate Proxy! Just AMAZING sir!
Heck yeah! Nothing beats a buttery timeline. Cheers.
I really appreciate your videos. The more my content evolves, the more snags I encounter, but the more your tutorials are able to un-snag those snags. Thank you!
Glad to help!
This video is the gift that keeps on giving! Two years old and super relevant and helpful to an editing noob like me. You've saved my bacon again!
That's so helpful, I'm just getting started with da vinci resolve and I think this will save me a lot of time and frustration that I have had with other programs. Thank you!
You're very welcome! I can't wait to hear what you think of Resolve after you get more familiar with it. Thanks for watching
I've been struggling with this exact thing. I have not tried it because i literally just found this. Cant wait though! Thanks.
This video and the advice to get a ssd is gonna be lifesaving for me. It was getting unbearable to edit on my computer.
DUDE TAHNK YOU SO MUCH, I just got a new pc and i was super exited, but it didn't meat my expectations but this video smashed it!
I've seen a fair few tuts on creating proxies but this has some nuggets that are new to me. Thanks for the share man. Super useful with the Pocket 6k pro joining my arsenal :-D

Thanks Chadwick! I just actually watched this a second time and I had forgotten your tip to disable timelines. I think it made a big difference because I had a lot enabled. When I disabled the majority of my timelines my computer worked more smoothly. Cheers....
Biggest love for DV is I can utilize internal and multiple eGPUs at the same time. Suck it 🍎! This video was gold. I shared it to myself.
Thanks dude - yeah its pretty great with the full version of Resolve that it can really utilize all the hardware you throw at it.
Disabling the timelines is a great tip. Thanks.
I’m so glad this was added in v17. Cheers!
DUDE great video, thank you. There are other ones similar but this one really was the best. subbed
Chadwick, I love your lessons . . . Very smooth to listen to.
you're too kind - glad they are helpful
Best tutorial! Found my solution halfway through. Now running smooth as butter!

Hi! Me too. Yep that is a great little hidden feature of the cam buttons! It’s like a little Easter egg. I cover that in one of the videos on the speed editor on the channel. I think it’s in the cut vs edit page video.
Good find and tip!
Oh sweet. Thanks for sharing this! Gonna be looking into this hidden treasure. Need to go back over your vid on that Chadwick!
automatically SUB. one of the best tutorial, to the point. and video timeline, no BS or ADs. I love it, you deserve more SUB. Keep up the good work brother

Dude thanks for making this, helped me out alot :)
Thank you, this is a great tips and helpful.

You always save my butt with these vids man. Well done and thank you!!!
Great to hear, glad they help
Welcome ❤️
Another awesome vid good job, valuable info for me being as gpu s are sold out everywhere, mine isnt bad just older.
Thanks for watching! It’s great to be able to always make the most out of what you have.
great tips, exactly what I was looking for, no excuse to finish an edit now, thanks.
Great to hear they helped. It's almost break time, you can finish it! :). Merry Christmas Simon.
This really helped, thank you!
Great to hear, thanks for watching.
Great explanation!
Glad it was helpful!
11:45 thank you for that, it gonna be a game changer for me :D
Great video! I've always wondered what those xml files are that Sony cameras generate.
Great vdeo. Davinci is a powerful tool. Now the thing is find job haha. Just made my demo reel as video editor. Wish me luck 😁
You can do it!
Fantastic tips. Thank you.

great info..appreciate all the specific details and extra tips!
My pleasure!
Love that I have this ability in DR if I need it down the road. My GH5 All-I clips must be similar to prores as I haven’t had to proxy yet.
Yep it's a great trick to pull out when you need it. Great to hear those all-i clips are working great.
Thank you for this video and the the proxy media tips! Cannot tell you how much this aids me in editing on my laptop!
This video was so helpful I hit the like button twice 😉. Thanks !
This was excellent, thanks so much man
This is quite funny because I was thinking about this vis a vis the process in FCP and see that FCP has an easier process for sure and prior to v17 Resolve did not have this option! On my crappy iMac I would have been severely hindered, I tried original and proxies in FCP and the experience was is similar r to what you demonstrated
very useful
I think for the longest time I was using GENERATE OPTIMIZED MEDIA
instead of proxy media hence never feeling like it ever worked ------but this video surely cleared up a lot of performance curiousities
thank you for sharing this with us!!!
I liked and subscribed , thanks a lot man!
Awesome tutorial bro!
This is great. Thanks!
awesome - great to hear it was helpful! Thanks Brian
Love your videos!!! ✂️💜💜✂️✂️💜💜✂️
Thanks so much 😊
I just got a small project with a lot of 6k footage and I think this is the way to go to edit them. Thank you!
You got this, for sure proxies make life so much easier.
Dude I love you so frigging much right now!!! I never look forward to editing because it's so sluggish but this changes everything, it took me several hours of render [4 cams around 2 hours of footage] but now it's perfect!!! My catch phrase is gravy, but in this case it's all butter baby!!!! THANK YOU!!!!
So good! Great to hear this is working for you. Cheers.
Fantastic video. This was much easier to follow than any of the other 6 videos I've looked at for this topic
Thanks so much for the kind words, I'm glad it was helpful!
Thanks Chadwick, very helpful tips.
You bet
Brilliant explanation - many thanks Chadwick.
Thanks so much John
Very nice, I was looking for that info for a very long time!!!!
Will try that proxy stuff.
Great video thank you so much for the help! I just upgraded to a new camera and was having issues with slow playback so thank you so much!
Thank you again!
Any time!
Thank you, this helped. now just have to wait for proxy media to be generated. lol. Just Subscribed!
So glad it helped! Thank you. Yeah it’s always a wait now or be frustrated later kinda thing.
Wow!!! Thank you so much man..great job
Glad it helped!
thanks bro ! needed this 👍👍
awesome tutorial♥️
amazing video thank you brother bless up this helped a lot
Another great video with excellent advice. All the best.
Thanks, you too!
Hey mate -- just a note to say thanks for doing such good tutorials. I use Resolve daily on a professional level daily and mostly appreciate your workflow optimization tips. Just wish BM would address audio mapping from a multicam clip to make it more like Avid or Premiere so it can be used in professional reality, episodic, and other long form multi camera programming with separate audio. We always end up in Resolve for color anyway... would be great to stay in it the whole time as our NLE of choice.
Very Very Good 💥 Let's make more such fine-tuning. Very useful tips
u just saved my life man!
Hi! Your videos really helped me to level up my Davinci game. But coming from Adobe I still have one thing that I can't solve:
