Using Resolve Live
1 In Resolve Live mode, the ‘freeze’ button (snowflake icon) freezes the current incoming
video frame, so you can grade it without being distracted by motion occurring during
the shoot.
2 Once you’re happy with a grade, clicking the ‘snapshot’ button (camera icon) saves
a snapshot of the current still in the viewer, the incoming timecode value, and your
grade into the timeline. Snapshots are simply one frame clips. Once you’ve taken your
snapshot, press the snowflake icon again to resume playing until you find the next shot
you want to grade.
TIP Please refer to the DaVinci Resolve manual for more information on Resolve Live.
