Blackmagic Design has rolled out DaVinci Resolve 10.1, an update of the on-set editing and color correction solution, that adds new editing and 3D stereoscopic features, as well as support for Final Cut Pro™ X 10.1.

The upgrade adds editing features that includes allowing users to preview and align multiple camera takes while editing, so they can switch between takes to show their clients shot options live from the timeline. Editors can now copy individual clips in the editing timeline with a simple drag and drop, making it easier to use the same footage in different parts of the edit. 

The enhanced editing tools also include support for trimming frame based clips such as DNG and DPX that reduces time in transferring clips for even faster workflows, as well as Rich Text title support that allows every character’s size, position and color to be adjusted individually directly from the Edit page.

Also featured in DaVinci Resolve 10.1 are XML import enhancements for both FCP X 10.1 and FCP 7 customers. Compound clips from FCP X 10.1 with separate A/V elements are now split into individual clips and imported FCP 7 XML’s include font properties and timeline markers as well as being able to bring across sizing, cropping and composition parameters. Now shot reframing adjustments made during Final Cut Pro editing will translate even more accurately into the DaVinci Resolve timeline.

Customers with the full software license of DaVinci Resolve will get enhanced 3D stereoscopic tools including a full stereoscopic multi track editing timeline, enhanced convergence adjustments and automatic alignment, says Grant Petty, CEO, Blackmagic Design. DaVinci Resolve 10.1 is available now for download from the Blackmagic Design web site (http://www.blackmagicdesign.com) free of charge for all DaVinci Resolve customers.
