Encountering difficulties when bringing video, audio, or image files into DaVinci Resolve is a common issue for users of this professional video editing software. This problem can manifest in various ways, such as files not appearing in the media pool, generating error messages upon attempted import, or the software freezing or crashing during the process. These problems can disrupt the editing workflow and prevent project completion.
Successfully importing media is fundamental to any video editing project. A failure to do so negates the ability to manipulate footage, add effects, or construct the desired narrative. Historically, incompatibility issues have plagued digital media workflows, often stemming from differing codec standards, file formats, or software limitations. Troubleshooting import problems is therefore a vital skill for anyone working with DaVinci Resolve.
