Blackmagic Design has released Public Beta 6 of DaVinci Resolve 15 and DaVinci Resolve 15 Studio. Public Beta 6 adds support for editing audio automation data in the Fairlight page, allows simultaneous monitoring of HDR and SDR for Dolby Vision and HDR10+, and adds new native French and Portuguese language support to the user interface.
In addition, you can now easily copy Fusion compositions, use clip names for data burn-in, replace existing frame based files during renders so you don’t have to re-render entire clips, added support for audio clip levels from AAF imports, added support for more audio file formats in the sound library and allow you perform subframe audio fades on the timeline. DaVinci Resolve 15 Public Beta 6 also has more robust metadata support for QuickTime files, even more scripting APIs and documentation, and addresses dozens of performance and stability issues that customers have reported via the beta feedback forum on the Blackmagic Design website.
