DaVinci Resolve: The Selected file does not appear to be a supported file type.
Hi!
I'm not quite sure if the issue is on the Bazzite side, or the DaVinci side. If It's DaVinci's fault please correct me :>
I installed DaVinci Resolve using the
ujust install-davinci command, and it installed without a hassle, however when I want to import any .mp4 file it appears to not cooperate, the same with .mp3, .flac, .png and I think every file I throw at it.
It's a fresh install of Bazzite, since I thought maybe the age of the install and the tinkering in it were the problem. Looks like they weren't.

Free version of resolve for Linux is limited in codec support
This is only for Linux since on Windows and macOS Microsoft and Apple paid for codec licensing
Soo I need to have a license of Studio to utilise it normally :dviperLost:
Yes
thats
genuinely fucked up
not fucked up
codec licensing is not cheap
still fucked up because mp4/h264 is a super common format that is pratically used everywhere
can't do anything about either since mp4 is very common format
i got some transcode scripts to ease the pain atleast the upside of mov is that it gives you some slight performance when editing videos
moving to #🐧linux-general
would agree but
CISCO have opensourced h264 and hevc, now known as OpenH264, OpenHEVC
BM could use it but they don't, they are just forcing you to pay for features other versions get for free
Goodluck convinced blackmagic to use openh265
