Blackmagic Design has announced a free DaVinci Resolve 12.2 update that adds support for colour science technologies, along with decoding of HEVC/H.265 QuickTime files on OS X and additional high dynamic range features. The DaVinci Resolve 12.2 update is available now for both DaVinci Resolve 12 and DaVinci Resolve 12 Studio customers, and can be downloaded from the Blackmagic Design website.

Since the release of version 12.1, Blackmagic Design engineers have been working to continue adding features professional editors and colourists need, as well as support for the latest formats with expanded colour spaces.

Customers get new support for HDR Hybrid Log Gamma, conversion LUTs for Hybrid Log Gamma, ACES IDTs for Canon C300 Mk II clips, and updated ST 2084 HDR colour science. That means colourists have better tools for finishing projects that are going to be distributed to theatres with the latest projection systems like IMAX Laser and Dolby Vision. This also lets customer prepare content that is ready for HDR 4K televisions.

In addition, the DaVinci Resolve 12.2 update adds support for NewBlue Titler Pro titles using Media Composer AAF sequences, improves ProRes 4444 alpha channel support by defaulting to straight blend mode, retains Power Window opacity and invert settings when converting to Power Curve windows.
