You can edit, color correct, finish, and deliver all. DaVinci Resolve is known in the industry as having excellent GPU-acceleration support - greatly benefiting from a powerful (or multiple powerful) video cards.
Frame.io in DaVinci Resolve Explained
Getting Started
Davinci Resolve 17 Studio Free
To get started, click DaVinci Resolve > Preferences, select Internet Accounts, and enter your Frame.io credentials. Click Sign In.
Viewing your Frame.io account in Resolve
Once you're signed in to your Frame.io account, you'll have access to all of your Frame.io accounts, teams, projects, and folders under the DaVinci Resolve Media tab.
Select and drag your Frame.io clips to the Media Pool. Once in the media pool, they will begin to download automatically, which allows you to begin editing on the proxy version. At the same time, you wait on the full resolution file to download in the background.
Resolve will automatically swap the proxy with the full resolution file once downloading is complete.
Automatically synced, frame-accurate comments
Frame.io comments, replies, and annotations are automatically synced to your DaVinci Resolve timeline. Teammates and collaborators can see comments made on your timeline in DaVinci Resolve in Frame.io. Replies to comments will show up as a marker in your timeline.
Improved Frame.io Marker Navigation (New to Resolve 17 Studio)
You can now specifically navigate only markers created in Frame.io while in the comment dialog of a Frame.io marker, using the Previous Marker (Shift+UpArrow) and Next Marker (Shift+DownArrow) commands. This allows you to skip directly from comment to comment in Frame.io without having to either navigate all markers in-between or double-click each Frame.io marker individually to respond.
Exporting media
Upload your timeline or a section of your timeline to Frame.io
Click the Deliver tab in DaVinci. Select the Frame.io preset. This allows you to render the sequence to a file, give the file a name and select the project you want to send it to in Frame.io.
After clicking add to render queue, the job is pooled in the Render Queue. To kick off the render and upload, click the Start Render button ✨

More GPU Acceleration
DaVinci Resolve Studio lets you turbo charge the performance of your system with support for multiple GPUs! Whether you’re using Metal on a Mac, or OpenCL and CUDA on Windows and Linux, you’ll get incredible performance gains with additional GPUs.
Advanced Noise Reduction
DaVinci Resolve Studio includes some of the most sophisticated noise reduction tools in the world. Temporal and spatial noise reduction tools can be used independently or together to help clean up and remove unwanted noise in virtually any image.
Lens Distortion
DaVinci Resolve Studio includes a lens correction feature that allows you to analyze a clip and correct for spherical lens distortion or other aberrations. It uses advanced image analysis and processing algorithms for incredibly high quality results!
Professional HDR Scopes
The HDR scopes in DaVinci Resolve Studio are capable of measuring and providing detailed information about ST.2084 and HLG images. This allows you to replace the 10‑bit scale of the scopes with a scale based on nit values, or cd/m2, instead.
Stereoscopic 3D
DaVinci Resolve Studio features a complete set of tools for editing and grading stereoscopic 3D projects. You have total control over stereo specific clip properties such as convergence, floating windows, eye alignment, mastering and output.
Remote Grading
Remote grading lets colorists work interactively with clients across the globe. It allows two matching DaVinci Resolve systems to be synchronized via an internet connection so that changes made on one system are immediately visible on the other.
DaVinci Colorspace Transform Language
Unlike LUTs, which rely on simple lookup tables, DaVinci color transformation scripts are GPU accelerated bits of code that directly transform images using combinations of math functions. That makes them extremely fast and non destructive.
Scripting and Automation
DaVinci Resolve Studio features support for both Python and LUA scripting, along with developer APIs that allow you to add workflow integrations and custom encoding options. This lets studios of all sizes create deeply integrated custom workflows.
Workflow Integration Plug‑ins
DaVinci Resolve Studio supports workflow integration plug-ins for connecting to local and remote asset management, automation systems and more. Users can write their own plug-in and interact with DaVinci Resolve's javascript APIs.
