DaVinci Resolve version 20

Blackmagic Design has released Public Beta 2 of DaVinci Resolve 20 which adds improvements and bug fixes for the DaVinci public beta including the ability to view and adjust changes made to speed keyframes. This means when using the new keyframe editor, you can make adjustments and view changes instantly in the viewer, making it faster to achieve the speed effect you’re creating.

When using the source timeline viewer, there is improved syncing between the viewer and tabbed timelines when dragging and dropping media or when applying edits. There are also multiple fixes when laying down voiceovers. Now when you record voiceovers, it will record to your track selection, regardless of whether the track has Track FX applied. In addition, if other tracks are set to solo or arm, you will be able to continue to accurately monitor voiceovers.

There are also improvements to dual screen layouts on the edit page, especially when working with vertical timelines. This means you’ll be able to maintain consistency regardless of the timeline resolutions, as well as being able to easily minimize and restore an undocked keyframe editor window.

For Fusion Studio, this software update adds improvements and bug fixes for improving justify behaviour in Text+ and MultiText, better selection in Cryptomatte layer dialog, as well as improved text box clipping with character level styling and GPU based deep rendering.

The full read-me list for this update is below.
