In the US, for collaborative editing (e.g., multi-episodic TV show), the workflow is almost always AMA link, transcode to lower res (DNX36 / 1080), edit, conform back to the camera originals, color grade, and then output. Some parts are modified depending on the preference of the assistant editor and post super. Editing in 4K is expensive because it

Have you tried rebuilding the media databases? Normally, the Refresh or Load commands should conclude with the media linked.

This is still a constant problem for us. We do reach out to Support and they deactivate it on their end. However, we would prefer that Avid Link works properly. Please? We have hundreds of licenses to deal with.

Avid's engine is largely CPU bound, meaning most tasks are processed at the CPU level. Resolve is mostly GPU bound. Avid needs to migrate some of the processes on the GPU since the performance gain and generational change are more significant with the GPU. Even the most basic media players perform better when "GPU acceleration" is active

Most of our colorists have given up on Symphony. With Resolve's superior CC and HDR support (including proper Dolby Vision workflow) it has convinced many to migrate even with the pains of sequence conversion from one app to another (and no, no conversion workflow is ever perfect no matter which apps are involved). Maybe someday they will release

I told Avid the same thing. It should have
