When importing video files/folders, everything gets scrambled in Davinci. How do we stop this. I have the Sony's ZV1, a6500, AV1 cam, RX100 1-3 cameras. Nothing more frustrating than, being in order until you import into, Davinci and Davinci pulls this nightmare. Almost makes me never want to use Davinci just because of this, and the fact you can only use studio with all Linux distro. Making a video for this issue would be nice, but an answer is fine.
Gary Jenkins Iâve never had the issue youâre describing unless I drag the folders into the media pool instead of the bins section. Maybe thatâs whatâs going on? If not, maybe thereâs a bug thatâs specific to Resolve on Linux
Thank you so much. Your video is the first I've found where someone talks in basic language for a beginner like me. I do now understand preparation.
Probably the most important and underrated aspect of making videos.
Agreed!
There's a program I use called Post Haste, which will take the dummy folder structure you reference at 3:59 and every time you start a new project, it will automatically create the project folder structure, along with changing any folder names you want it to, to match the project name you assign. Its super great for stashing template projects named "template.drp" for instance, and auto renaming them to match the project name you set when you use Post Haste. A HUGE time saver.
This was really helpful, even though i'm kind of mid-project.
That quick pro tip at timestamp 3:59 is awesome.
Iâm nicking that one đ
Hahahahaha. Go right ahead. Iâd be lying if I said I came up with it.
This is so important and so misunderstood. Kudos! More of these!
This is something we normally donât pay much attention to, and then we get crazy when looking for something. Great video, man! Thanks đ
Most of my videos come from finding a solution to something that drives me crazy đ. Thanks man!
Great video. Thanks for the info
I was literally just going to start organizing my files! Thanks again Jay!
No problem Paul! Thanks for watching!
All great tips- I always have a smart bin that is set to Timeline > enabled and that way I don't need to remember where the timelines are - they just all appear in the smart bin. To those people that try the dragging in the folder structure and it doesn't work - it's because you have to drag it into the left column where the bins are listed. If you drag and drop on the right it won't bring in and create all the bins.
Good stuff Jay. These kinds of videos will be good for your channel - keep it up.
Thanks Jim! Yeah Iâll be covering power bins and smart bins in a future video
Past this portion - I've been trying to figure out the best way to archive my projects if I have already organized my folders like this. But often times, I use a SFX or VFX file I forgot to add to my folder outside of resolve. I wish resolve had the ability to check inside of a certain folder to see if a file existed - and if it didn't it would just use the same folder structure from within the software to copy it to the actual hard drive.
If you work with 8K RAW 60 from Canon R5C, then I would recommend a AMD 7950x and a 4090 as with that it works really smoothly.
Great points!
Thanks!
I wish the Media page wasn't so slow to work with. I know it can be very powerful, and I definitely use it for meta tags and to prep my footage but there are some things which are just faster elsewhere in the app. Even cloning SD cards in it doesn't keep my organization structure which makes me sad.
Thanks Jay!
Anytime Dave!
Do you have a video on installing Davinci across hard drives? For example, i have seen people install on C: but have an assets drive and a third drive for exporting to. The idea being you dont clog the PCI lanes. Do most people install the database on C:?
just wondering in terms of Davinci Resolve can we allocate to another drive storage media location besides the main os and apps
Absolutely! You can change where your project database, database backups, and even cache are stored on your computer. You can even put them on external drives, but I wouldn't recommend that unless it's a drive that stays connected to your computer.
