Today at BMD in NYC, Alexis Van Hurkman demo'ed DaVinci Resolve 10 (alpha version). Yes the tracking and (in the full version only) the noise reduction looked fantastic. The NR has now seperate controls for spatial and temporal reduction. The temporal nr can be done using 0, 1, or 2 frames. I noted this, because I read @rean's Windmotion does temporal NR over 7 frames max.

Fyi, it crashed when he went to open the NR demo. He said resolve 10 will be avail "3rd quarter 2013... whatever that means" and while the editing & titling tools are good, they are meant for last minute fixes, not as a replacement for a proper edit program.

Testers of Resolve 10 are now allowed to talk about new features. Please see:

BMD stated in the past that Resolve 10 Lite will be free again. Paid Resolve 9 users will have a free upgrade.

I'd be happy to be proven wrong, but I don't think native MTS support is coming in Resolve 10. For now it looks like those of us editing natively in Premiere might want to consider SpeedGrade which now dynamically links and edits Premiere timelines without proxies/intermediaries. I would rather use Resolve, of course!

Here's the text announcing the public beta...

@ahbleza --- you're right, fails after you enter your details.

Somehow it doesn't work. Installed Resolve 10 lite on PC where I had Resolve 9 lite installed. Did start several times computer new, but just see typical introduction window for a second and then it's gone and nothing happens further. Introduction windows only says "starting up".

Any idea what I made wrong.

OK looks like they fixed the download issue with the Mac 10 Beta version.

@tida Don't know - I basically installed it from the file I downloaded, and didn't remove anything first or anything like that. Sorry to hear you're having problems. :-(

about to try the full version now

Problem solved. Resolve was trying to use the onboard Intel Graphics plus i had to roll back my Nvidia driver to 310.90 (Jan 2013). So far, so good...
