Peter Chamberlain July 3, 2019 Share July 3, 2019 With thanks to everyone who has participated in the public beta program, today we are pleased to announce that DaVinci Resolve 16 Studio beta 5 and Fusion 16 Studio beta 5 are now available on our support web site. https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/support/family/davinci-resolve-and-fusionWe believe this release candidate is ready for you to migrate to and so we strongly encourage all beta users to update to this beta version as we move closer to GM.For users moving from v15, please back up your database, make drp's of your active projects and restore the DB in preparation for the version upgrade as you can not go back to v15 with a v16 DB.DaVinci Resolve beta 5 readmeNew features• Initial support for selection and editing of
