Thank you Daniel. You are genuinely one of the few creators that teach us how to fish rather than give us the fish itself. Been following for a while and your content is awesome
Daniel, found my problems which are: 1. When combining clips together I needed to use the timeline screen to show advancement of clip, easily found end of clip then dragged next clip behind it and apply transition. This way I do not lose any clips. 2. Transitions: Used the method of creating dark triangle at end of one clip and beginning of the next clip. A very basic transition, but it does work and easily applied. 3. When creating Compound Clip I needed to make sure all clips are highlighted, if not will only work on one clip. Is now working - Title, compound clip with basic transitions, and music. Will create a separate project just to work on creating any transition, even those that you need to expand space between clips to make room for the transition code to get it to work. Again, really appreciate your help and involvement, shows you really care. Chuck Devlin
I love the way you break down your tutorials for the nonprofessional editor. The guy like me that dosent use DR as a profession but just to edit thier own YT videos. Super helpful. Thanks
"I know that sounds complicated" ten seconds after making it sound simple! Great tutorials, helps us understand WHY which actually teaches the HOW, thanks and please keep them coming!
Daniel, Thank you. I have fought this for a good bit. I honestly didn't know why i couldn't add this to some clips until watching this video. That is alot of steps to move those transitions in. i would be lost if it wasn't for you. Thank you again for being "The Master" at teaching us noobs
Daniel, thanks a million for this outstanding video! I recently started in Davinci Resolve Studio and there was no good info on this. Everyone kept saying to cut a little off the ends of the clips and then drop in the cross dissolve. I was so frustrated. If your most important footage is at the end of a clip or beginning, by their own logic your film is useless. Explaining it with your intelligence, it's perfect. Thank you, very, very much! Working on my first music video of myself and you just saved my video release date! Much love my brother!
This is an EXCELLENT explanation of making a transition work on an edit junction in DaVinci Resolve! The one-sentence explanation others give usually does not help noobs because frames NOT displayed on a timeline that are maybe in a clip is a concept really hard to grasp. This video should be at the top of the list for new videographers learning Resolve. Thank you❗(Or, maybe it was just me having a hard time with that concept.)
I never realized that about transitions. I wondered why sometimes when I dragged and dropped them down into my time-line, it only went to one side of a clip. NOW I know! Thanks for the help!
thank a lot dani. from 2k19 i started video editing via filmora with u, now i leave filmora too coz ur my Guru(in Hindi) i started davinci with u, love from India. it's my kindld humble request that kindly keep uploading short video regarding davinci video editing tip and trick. love u n M artin pertin this side.
Today I learned that I have been using the transitions wrong for longer than I care to admit. I usually just drag one clip above the other for overlap then drop the transition onto one of the clips. As soon as you dragged back the frames and then mated them and added the transition I felt like such a fool doing it the other way. This will save time and effort, thanks for this vid.
Been there! Usually most of my footage is cut up from longer segments so the transitions always drop right between them. The first time they didn’t work I was all sorts of confused
You make awesome video do not waste time and in short time you explain all necessary things . So wanna stick with your videos i will try if i could go with Davinchi if i could learn that
how can i fix the slow time line ? for example when i move the cursor to certain part of the clip, it wont just play from the part im on. itll be laggy and slow. Is this a limitation for the free version or does the paid version do this too?
More likely a limitation or your system resources. Start by making sure your computer meets or exceeds the recommended (NOT minimum) system requirements-> motionarray.com/learn/davinci-resolve/davinci-resolve-system-requirements/

Daniel, I used your link to get Storyblocks. Thanks. I did look for the 80 transitions pack you demonstrated, but couldn't fine them. Do you have a link? Jeff
Wonderful. I actually had this happen to me and I’m a complete beginner, so makes sense that it would happen to me…. I don’t know if it’s a coincidence but I’ve seen three videos on TH-cam that cover this answer. But I guess what’s a little bit interesting when you took the handle and moved it over for the beginning in the ending clip, you’re saying, that the information is still there that it can use even though you’ve cropped out that information da Vinci is still going to use the hidden information to build the transition. That’s interesting and you didn’t say it like that.
Yes! That is really the backbone of NLE (non linear editing). Now, if you had two clips that you had already cut down from a longer segment, you probably wouldn’t notice as you dropped in your transition seamlessly. Always remember. All of the information in any clips is ALWAYS there, not matter how thin you slice it in edit
Daniel, you strike again. Great video - I had been having problems with transitions, but now have them working pretty good. I do appreciate your video help. By the way, so far like the "Blur Dissolve" at 1.5 seconds.
I use that one often too. I tend to prefer very straightforward transitions. Either just a fast cut or a simple, dissolve or cross fade are some of my favorite transitions.
thanks Daneil please tell me mac capcut is good by apple or filmora ? Capcut is not available in India i think . As filmora does have so many presets and its cheaper too but now they sell perpetual plan only not a lifetime. And can we have two licenses like for mac too from same email id ?
Your explanation is all well and good but that is why I purchased video editing software in the first place so I don't have to consider your manual methods in the first place, to modify my work flow wondering if a transition is going to work or not. This impedes productivity and the creative process. It would be easier if the software would interpolate the necessary frames and create the transition as desired as the optical flow works when you do a retime. I have used other less ambitious software in the past that doesn't choke on video transition effects between clips. This should not be an issue with Davinci Resolve but it is still.
You’re misunderstanding transitions. If you put most video clips that have been cut from your footage (as most are in any significant project) you’d never have this issue. With other simple software, they often duplicate the opening or ending frames and give you a different problem, motion freezing and audio drop. Some will try to manually move the footage in your timeline which throws your sync off if you’re adding transitions in the middle of a project. This is true of ALL video editing software. You don’t want that either.
Hello Daniel . I just bought mac and now filmora doesn’t let me use as they are saying my license was for windows but on my invoice its nowhere mentioned i bought during version 9 when you used to make tutorial videos . I am so thankful to you i learned editing from you i only know how to use filmora yesterday I bought mackbook m3 max so i could grow my youtube channel now as my laptop was very old . Have only 100 subs currently. What to do now . Can you recommend something or is there any easy software like filmora please respond. Thank you so much
Yeah, Filmora has always had separate licenses for Mac and PC (I have lifetime licenses for each) I would consider looking at something like CapCut if you want something fairly simple with a user-friendly UI. Your MacBook will handle DaVinci Resolve no problem but it’s a more advanced software
So anytime I have footage that cannot be cut at the end or beginning of an adjoining track, I can simply add another track and do what you did in the first part of this video and then render and I'm good.
Will Davinchi be easy ? Will it run on mackoob pro max m3 chip with 36 gb unified memory (36 GB ram ) i hope i dont get you bore by my questions! Filmora was cheaper i i kind of know now as from your tutorials during filmora 9 and got it on your recommendation. I hope one day will meet you when i will be big enough maybe you will be ready to meet me
DaVinci is not easy, it’s got a steep learning curve but it’s a true Pro level editor. You can try out their free version. It has almost as many features as the paid version and is completely free.
Hell no! They are the perfect fit for this conversation and I reached out because I’ve been paying for their service for years I only mention companies I actually use and that I think fit the conversation and are actually worth the money. (Probably why I’m not a wealthy TH-camr, but I’m okay with that!😅)
I created a transition using davinchi resolve with file extension 'webm', when i add this transition into davinchi resolve like 👆this way not showing when i restart the resolve. Plz help me sir
Depending on the version of resolve you have, studio versus free, there are certain file type of limitations and WebM in particular is one that is only partially supported in specific situations, depending on how you created the file. I would recommend converting that to a different file type.
Well that’s a loaded question! Here are two answers. Green screen: th-cam.com/users/shortsYV5TqjSnxlc?si=VzidPTNDFjxZSRoz No green screen: th-cam.com/users/shortsH_nF5pPwb9w?si=unwrTwmDDpxN2_wk
I like motion array’s breakdown from a couple years ago. They don’t just show minimum system requirements, which never work well, they show recommended system, specs. Definitely use those 👉 motionarray.com/learn/davinci-resolve/davinci-resolve-system-requirements/
Hello! What do I do if all of the transitions I downloaded are only .mov or .mp4 files? I've downloaded titles for Davinci no problem before, and those were all .setting files, but when I download the folders for video transitions, they're all .mp4 or .mov?
@@Daniel_Batal Thank you for the fast reply! I don't even know because I couldn't find them in DaVinci 😅 But when I open the .mov and .mp4 files, they're black backgrounds with the transition, and if I drag them into DaVinci, they don't work like they should, they're just a standard video. The category on the page I downloaded them from is "Video Templates->Elements". Are elements different than transitions?
Yeah. It sound like those are more like overlays designed to place above a cut. Often they’ll look like a motion that covers the entire screen and hides the cut. Though they should be built on a transparent background
@@Daniel_Batal In the preferences in the user section under editing their is a line called handles which is used to set the default amount of extra frames on the ends of clips.
Time saver: With the playhead over where you want the transition, just double click on the transition selected in the effect panel, and the transition will magically jump to the playhead 😅
Ehhhhhh.... kinda! It will jump to the next available split but doesn't form to the playhead and won't drop if there isn't enough enough information (as explained in this video) It's one of those shortcuts I rate as a solid 6
I spoke too soon. Combining two video clips creating a transition is easy. However I am trying to combine 6 video clips into a compound clip with a transition between each clip. I have only gotten the first two clips to work with the transition, then it falls apart trying to add the other clips. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have not tried first creating the compound clip then trying to place the transitions. This could prove difficult in proper placement if it works. No hurry as what I am doing is "proof of concept", not for real for several months at least. Just getting a head start.
Personally i am using just trim videos but i am also using fade in and out But i am still looking for inivisible transitions which we can see on shorts from asian model channels . Channels are even 1 mln subs but its transitions that are do the job 🤔🙄
See if you can find what other user error is stopping your transition from working. Everything from locked tracks, grouped assets, or things that might override or supersede the ability to drop the transition.
@Daniel_Batal so essentially do the file organization within my windows organizer rather then having them ready to go in the tool bar of davinci? So I have to import these files to each new project every time I wanna use them correct? There's no way to store them within davinci?
It depends. The file path I showed here for PC will get you to most of the folders for saving different types of usable files. There are some 3rd party templates such as text animations and such that utilize video files for portions of the overall effect. Definitely not my favorite type of animation. Usually those types of have some sort of installation guide with them contained in the installation folder.
Thanks super helpful! Yeah I used motion array for vfx and overlays and such and most of them seem to be that .mov or mp4 3rd party style... kinda disappointed... I'd prefer to work with mostly those .setting files u showcased it seems easiest atleast for now... storyblocks is the way to go?
First off, it does. Keep in mind this ONLY applies to when you’re using complete segments with no additional information. Different software handle the same situation differently. Some will automatically move the assets. Some will duplicate the opening or ending frames which causes a different problem, freezing during the cross dissolve
Iam trying to import a movie with a duration of 3 hours in davinci to make a trailer from it. But it is imported without sound. What should I do. Please help🙏🏻

See if you can find what other user error is stopping your transition from working.
Everything from locked tracks, grouped assets, or things that might override or supersede the ability to drop the transition.
@@Daniel_Batal It is ok now , I created another folder in Templates / Edit and added Transitions in it :) it is working now. Tnx
Also, is one able to use, let's say, Adobe transitions in this same manner 7:27
You have to use templates that are built for Resolve (it’s a file type restriction for both editors)
If that was a thing I would've switched to resolve 😂 😂
Thank you@@Daniel_Batal
what if they are .mov files not settings files?
.mov flies wouldn’t be transitions.
They’d be a video clip.
In that instance, you’d need to treat them much like adding a video asset to your timeline
@Daniel_Batal so essentially do the file organization within my windows organizer rather then having them ready to go in the tool bar of davinci? So I have to import these files to each new project every time I wanna use them correct? There's no way to store them within davinci?
It depends.
The file path I showed here for PC will get you to most of the folders for saving different types of usable files.
There are some 3rd party templates such as text animations and such that utilize video files for portions of the overall effect.
Definitely not my favorite type of animation.
Usually those types of have some sort of installation guide with them contained in the installation folder.
Thanks super helpful! Yeah I used motion array for vfx and overlays and such and most of them seem to be that .mov or mp4 3rd party style... kinda disappointed... I'd prefer to work with mostly those .setting files u showcased it seems easiest atleast for now... storyblocks is the way to go?
This never happens with Premiere Pro, tho I'm using Davinci at the moment 😂
First off, it does.
Keep in mind this ONLY applies to when you’re using complete segments with no additional information.
Different software handle the same situation differently.
Some will automatically move the assets.
Some will duplicate the opening or ending frames which causes a different problem, freezing during the cross dissolve
Iam trying to import a movie with a duration of 3 hours in davinci to make a trailer from it. But it is imported without sound. What should I do. Please help🙏🏻
Make sure the audio codec used in your movie is supported by the version of Resolve that you’re using
👍👍👍👋👋👋🙏🙏🙏
Davinci Dissolve
I think I said that a few times while filming 😜
I hate boken things.
Me too. But these ones can easily be made to work again.
Nice Tutorial again 🙂
Thanks… again!
