How do the pros do it? I'm trying to plop this clip right where the previous video ends, but I want the audio track from both clips.

Moving the second clip where the arrow indicates seems like it should be a simple action, but because of the several audio tracks from both clips, it's frying my brain.

Do I really need a wall of 12 tracks just for these 2 clips?

Secondarily, but related: I'm not gonna do audio mixing for a while, so looking at multiple audio tracks while picture-editing seems like an eyesore and pretty annoying in situations like the above.

I know you can go to Index > Tracks to turn off the visibility of the tracks, but they're still there in the timeline and keep clashing with each other.

use davinci resolve on 2 computers?

I wanted to install davinci resolve (free version) on my secondary laptop. Upon reading the terms and conditions I realized that strictly speaking that might be illegal, as it states

"1.1. You may install the Software on a single computer device for access and use by one end user, at any one time."

I´m not a lawyer, but as I understand it that means I can download the software once and use it on one computer only. Otherwise I´d need to uninstall it on the first and then reinstall it on the second computer.

Is there a solution to this? I want to use the secondary laptop for "big" projects to keep my primary laptop´s hard drive from exploding, but still want to be able to edit on the primary laptop.

Am I doomed to start over

hello! So Davinci crashed while I was editing and when i reopened the project, all of my clips in the 2nd half of my video have been replaced with one clip repeating over and over. Since my app crashed i can't go back in the history and undo, and i don't have it backed up. Is there a way i can fix this? or do i have to start over on my project that i worked on for 15+hours? thanks in advance

How to achieve rays and glitch out effects?

Full video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRswwLzv0Jc

I wanted to lean a bit more into a scary and off setting VHS editing style like this video here. how could i achieve:

-The rays coming out of the letters and changing direction like at 0:05

-The glitch out at 0:41 and at 0:48

I dont know if stuff like this are covered in the tutorials and i thought these were weirdly specific and ive seen people ask about stuff like this so i wanted to ask for some help,

thanks guys!

This is a bug!

So, this cutting out bug is always happening on some footages, only when i put on effects, like if i drop a reverse effect, or a transition or sometimes just a simple effect like lense correction, if I drop any one of these effects this cut out stuff is happening, any resolution?

My mac is m4 macbook pro And it is Davinci 21.1 I am using. Footage is from sony a7iv,h264.

Newbie and Sony Slog3

Gday!

I am newish to filming and editing.
I do it for my business and went from my iPhone and capcut to now using a Sony ZVE10 mk2 and davinci resolve pro.

Question is in relation to camera settings and what you experienced people recommend.
First is colour, I am currently filming in Slog3 and “trying” my best to colour correct as per some YouTube videos. The conversion stuff seems to get me most of the way there but I obviously don’t know enough about colour correction to get it looking good.
Should I shoot in native rather than something like Slog3?

Usually outdoors or under a deck so pretty challenging dark and light sections in a frame.

If it’s worth the time to put in any recommendations on a beginner field tutorial?
The alternative is I fork out a few thousand and do a filming/editing coarse which I certainly don’t have the time for atm.

Next is frame rate, Australian here.
Should I be shooting in PAL at 25 fps or NTSC at 30
/should I just be shooting at 50/60?
I was storage restricted so mostly was to save space and I kept hearing 60 wasn’t needed for YouTube
It’s mainly for YouTube videos (long form) and reels

Final question, as a newbie should I just ditch the whole setup in favour of something like a DJI pocket 4
Feel like I went down this rabbit hole to get better starting image quality and without the skills to back it I’m stuck.

Alternatively I find an editor to do videos for me, in the middle of building the business so it’s not ideal but potentially something I will need to do in the future anyways
