The Deliver Page
This page lets you select the range of clips you want to export, plus the format, codec and
resolution you want. You can export in many types of formats such as QuickTime, AVI, MXF
and DPX using codecs such as 8-bit or 10-bit uncompressed RGB/YUV, ProRes, DNxHD, H.264
and more.
To export a single clip of your edit:
1 Click on the ‘deliver’ tab to open the deliver page.
2 Go to the ‘render settings’ window on the top left of the page. Choose from a number
of export presets, for example YouTube, Vimeo and audio presets, or you can set
your own export settings manually by leaving it set to the default ‘custom’ preset and
entering your own parameters. Forthis example, select YouTube, then click on the
arrow next to the preset and select the 1080p video format.
The frame rate will be locked to your project frame rate setting.
3 Underneath the presets you will see the timeline filename and the target location for
your exported video. Click the ‘browse’ button and choose the location where you want
to save your exported file and then select ‘single clip’ from the render option.
4 Immediately above the timeline, you’ll see an options box with ‘entire timeline’ selected.
This will export the entire timeline, however you can select a range of the timeline if
you want to. Simply choose ‘in/out range’ and then use the ‘i’ and ‘o’ hot key shortcuts
to choose the in and out points in your timeline.
5 Go to the bottom of the ‘render settings’ and click on the ‘add to render queue’ button.
Your render settings will be added to the render queue on the right side of the page.
Now all you have to do is click ‘start render’ and monitor the progress of your render in
the render queue.
When your render is complete you can open the folder location, double click on your
new rendered clip and watch your finished edit.
Now that you have a basic knowledge of how to edit, color, mix audio and add
visual effects, we recommend experimenting with DaVinci Resolve. Refer to the
DaVinci Resolve manual for more details on how each feature can help you make the
most of your project!
Post Production Workflow
Working with 3rd Party Software
If you have your own favorite editing software you’d like to use, you can easily copy your clips to
an internal/external drive or RAID and then import your clips into the software.
If you want to, you can even edit your clips directly from the SD card.
