Importing Your Clips; Editing Your Clips - Blackmagicdesign HyperDeck Installation And Operation Manual

Importing your Clips

To start editing your clips, you'll first need to import them into the media pool:
1 Launch DaVinci Resolve. If this is the first time you've opened DaVinci Resolve, wait
for the Project Manager to appear, and double click the 'untitled project' icon in the
project manager window. If the log in window appears, that means you have the
Resolve multi-user environment enabled. In this case, click Add New at the bottom left
of the log in window and create a new user by entering a user name and clicking Setup
New User. Then double-click the user icon to proceed to the Project Manager. Now
click 'new project', enter a title for your project and click 'create'.This will add your new
project to the project manager. Double click on your project to open it.
2 You'll now see the 'media' page with a 'media storage' browser at the top left. The
'media storage' browser displays all your linked media folders from where you'll drag
your clips and drop them into the media pool.
3 If your clip folder doesn't appear in the library, you'll need to add it. This is easily
done by clicking on preferences in the DaVinci Resolve title bar and clicking on the
'add' button in the 'media storage' tab. Browse to and select a drive or folder path,
click 'open', restart DaVinci Resolve and reopen your project to refresh the 'media
storage' settings.
4 In the 'media storage' browser, click on your newly added clip folder. Now simply drag
your clips from your storage folder and drop them into the media pool. If your project
settings are different to your clip settings, you'll be prompted to either change the
project settings to match your clips, or leave the settings as they are. To get started
quickly, click 'change'. Now your project settings match your clips.
To import your clips, simply drag them from the 'media storage' browser and drop
them into the media pool. You can also drag and drop files from your desktop.

Editing your Clips

With your clips in the media pool, click on the 'edit' tab to open the edit page.
Now you can start building your edit!
1 You'll first need to create a new timeline. Right click anywhere within the media
pool and choose Timelines > New Timeline. When the dialog box appears, click the
'create' button.
