Several software updates to keep your productions running smoothly...

DaVinci Resolve 10.1 This update includes support for the new FCPX 10.1 XML format and better handling of shot reframing and compound clips from FCP 7 and X. This release also supports rich text titles, a new take selector so editors can pick between multiple takes on the timeline, and a simple drag and drop to copy a clip on the timeline. For the full software license version, the stereoscopic 3D functionality of v9 is also included with the addition of being able to sync the left and right eye in the media pool automatically. This means the edit timeline for stereo projects is now a single rather than two timelines and stereoscopic 3D timelines can now be edited. The convergence control is now on a separate line in the keyframe timeline to make it easier to manage convergence keyframes.

Converters 3.0.2 has two new improvements. On the Mini Converter SDI to Audio, this fixes a very rare case where the converter did not lock to the input after switching video formats. On the ATEM Camera Converter, this fixes the regression introduced in 3.0, where low level analog audio did not embed on the SDI video.

Audio Monitor 1.1.2 fixes a hissing noise heard while monitoring SD and introduces the its new multilingual instruction manual. The manual is available in English, French, German, Spanish, Chinese and Japanese.

Videohub 5.0.6 addresses an issue where GPI and Tally interface will not configure correctly after changing from ATEM to Videohub.
