DUDE..nobody cares about the notch except you. Seriously you have been posting about the notch NONSTOP..look at your post history, you literally have posted like 15-20 times in the 'smart notch' thread..then you have gone into basically every other thread going on and on about the notch. Seriously funny how much the notch is bothering you to the point that you literally CANT stop talking about it in every thread. this thread is about davinci resolve yet somehow you are NOTCH NOTCH NOTCH
im NOTCH listening to you anymore.

Do you realize Davinci has a menubar with dropdowns across the entire width?
Pretty relevant when an unnecessary shape blocks or alters them.
 
Tightly integrated? What do you think adobe has more tightly integrated than Davinci? Photo editing and video editing? Resolve is an NLE, DAW, CC software, VFX, delivery ... all in one software pack. Adobe still has you jumping from one app to another ... and Adobe ME has a gamma shift on exporting Broadcast MXF... so you're still better of making a broadcast master in Davinci eventually ... luckily Adobe's AAF and XML implementation is rock solid for 'tight integration' with other software /s
Yet, Adobe’s shady subscription strategy aside, Adobe software is still being widely used. Are you saying everyone using Adobe software doing professional works are not using more “value add” Davinci resolve to achieve the same result?

Anyways, off topic.

Can't believe those complaining about $295. While most point out the Adobe @$50/mo forever (you can't get by with just the single Premiere @$20/mo, add another $20 for another single produce like After Effects, Photoshop, Lightroom and may as well get the full CC package). $295 too much? Really? You do realize that it's other competitor, Final Cut Pro X is $299. The irony is, you may not need the two or three advanced features that are excluded and the free version will meet your needs.

Unfortunately you have to have Photoshop and Illustrator. I've never had ANY other format or layered artwork in 20 years that wasn't a PSD... Before that a few Coraldraw's... Yes there are some great apps out there like Affinify, Procreate sketch etc.

I'd happily never use After effects again... but lots of client files come as that too.

Nothing is blocked or altered… all the menus are in the menu bar. I’m sure most people will click wherever the menu happens to be in the menu bar regardless of the notch.

The beginning of the menu bar is also off limits to applications as that’s saved for the  menu. It shifts application menus as well, no one complains about that.

That  menu bar space is reserved by the OS. The notch space is reserved by the hardware.
 
If you're crying at $295 for this software then you are not the target market for this software.
Sorry to come off as passive-aggressive, but it's true. $295 is an absolute bargain for what you're getting. This is performance that Adobe can only conceive of in their most fevered wet dreams, and if you have to use both Premiere and After Effects (like I do) then you're paying $800+ a year in the UK.

Is it really that much?? Adobe seems to be taking advantage, especially considering the exchange rate! Here in the US it is just over $600/year for the "All Apps" subscription.

Look up the definition of 'alter'.

Menus are still displayed in the menu bar in the order the developer wanted. And they are all still accessible. At most a user will have to move the pointer a little further to the right to click a menu. Workflows will not be disrupted. Productivity will not be waisted.

You’re making something out of nothing.
 
Huh, where can you watch 8K video content? o_O :oops:

Here, where I live, we have still 720p TV channels, Full HD (1920 x 1080 or 1080p) is in the sci-fi category.
I don’t do cable, so most of my OTA main channels (8.1, 12.1, 45.1) are still 720p and the .2-.7 channels are 480i, although my GritTV affiliate just started broadcasting a 720p feed, which is great. But here we are in the year 2021 and 4K programming is barely making a dent anywhere, despite all the TVs sold being 4K and 8K is really just a pipe dream. Maybe worth shooting in for the highest end cinema (Dune, Nolan, MCU, DCU, Avatar, et al) and some live sports, but meaningless to almost all of us. The fact is that high production value 2K (ARRI, et al) with decent bit rates is good enough for 90% of the viewing public.
 
Five times faster than Intel Macs, but I really want to know how it compares against Windows! Bring on those comparisons!

From the earlier leaks it seems that the M1 Max score in Resolve PugetBench are close to 1000. That's basically in the ballpark of a large desktop with a top of the line GPU.

How does it feel to be wrong?
Number 1 - Random pictures off of the internet mean nothing to me, but glad to be reassured of your gullibility, at the least.
Number 2 -Don’t you think that whatever you think will be the problem, will be quite easily resolved?

At the end of the day, as far as screen realestate goes - the menu bar has moved up into the bezel, creating a notch. Weird to have such an issue over more screen.

🤣 Guess who’s back notch crazy! I’ll give you a clue, Notch Fanatic- this thing you have circled is in the daVinci window, and not in the menu bar which is the only place the notch affects. Ok?

I had assumed the OP was talking about ‘home’ as in the country/area they live in rather than at their actual house - I dont think it was a brag on how many 4kTV’s they have, rather than a lack of them even being widely available around let alone in much use by residents.
That could explain it. It doesn't change the fact that 8K is what many professionals will be recording and processing in, even if they release 4k or lower resolution video.

the shape would only be "unnecessary" if it was pointless, but it has a webcam in it, so its necessary.
 
NukeX is $7000 these days. Fusion predates Nuke, and has been used for a lot of TV and Commercials for free or $295 it's a pretty great deal. Feel the main reason it missed out compared to Nuke was it was really slow to adopt OpenExr.

Sorry, I was sleepy when I typed that! I agree it's a great deal - was pointing to the guy that the competitors are incredibly expensive! just found out Flame is now $4,415/year!!
 
I wonder who buys $50k Mac Pro just for sending iMessage or punching letters in a text file.

Ummm. No one? they might buy Cheaper one. Mines about 12K with 192GB of Ram ( bought aftermarket ) and has the Dual Vega Duo card which is a beast for the 3d stuff and editing I do... but interestingly I have bootcamp and can MAX out any game graphics settings and it doesn't miss a beat... and it near silent.
