DaVinci Resolve 20.2.1 Adds More Consistent Ripple Trim and More

Some bug squashing courtesy of the hard-working Blackmagic dev team, with minor releases for DaVinci Resolve and Fusion Studio.

This software update adds more consistent ripple trimming behavior, better copy and paste behaviour of attributes, as well as improved track recognition for timeline source editing. It also improves compatibility with Apple ProRes RAW and Sony ARW clips. 

Meanwhile, in Fusion Studio, the software update restores Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text recognition in MultiText, as well as improving animation performance in USD Replace Material and Film Look Creator tools.

As ever, updates are available from the Blackmagic support page.
