    I didnt like very much his video. “You need the terminal to install vlc” wait what ? Ubuntu software library is here…

    Also he says he will migrate to davinci resolve once he needs to, but oh boy I’ve been seeing a lot of videos about resolve on Linux and how painful it is to use (missing codecs, no pipewire support, hates Wayland …)

      To be fair, the paid version of Davinci comes with the missing codecs. It’s only the free version that people have trouble with x264/x265.

      I’m not exactly the typical user here, but honestly Resolve is the best option on Linux. My caveat here is that I run Resolve on my stable box, which is a Debian box, and works beautifully.

      codec support is the issue as a free version, but two things there - if you’re editing, mp4 is generally not what you want anyway, and you can just use ffmpeg (or any variety of tools that use ffmpeg underneath but give you a gui) if you’ve got a file you need that its the only container format.

      If you’re doing it professionally, its $300, and worth buying. Much like buying Reaper for the whopping cost of $60 (personal)/$225 (commercial).

      Regarding Wayland support, I think the first release addressing it was around March or April, and is fully supported in Resolve 19. I haven’t tested, because my Debian Stable box is not using Wayland, so I personally won’t test probably for a few months (or if I get an itch to try it on my 1700x Arch box).

      GPU just needs OpenCL 1.2, so despite some previous snafus (needing nvidia) with GPU, AMD works just fine.
