DaVinci Resolve 20.3.1 Adds Updates, Squashes Bugs

Blackmagic enters the festive season with a minor update for DaVinci Resolve and Fusion Studio.

Not much to say about the latest release for DaVinci Resolve and Fusion following the addition of 32K support on Apple M5 Macs and numerous workflow enhancements in the 20.3 versions at the start of the month.

The DaVinci Resolve 20.3.1 software update adds the ability to quickly search for effects in Chinese, Japanese and Korean, improved HDR10 metadata embedding, and improvements to Fusion previews for transforms and merges. There is also plenty of bug-squashing and the usual general performance and stability updates.

Fusion Studio 20.3.1 includes similar fixes and adds support for importing PSD files with irregularly sized layers.

Details on both below. And, as ever, the new software can be downloaded from the Blackmagic Support page.
