How To Adjust Clip Speed | DaVinci Resolve 18 Tutorial

My speed changes grayed out. How to fix this?

i found this setting already and its greyed out for me

I reduce it to 50 and my clip was reduced by 50%, i.e. truncated ???

Thanks

Thanks

How good is the voice when sped up? I've been using Capcut PC to speed up some videos, but the voice sounds robotic.

no one will speed the entire video or its section fast or slow. you. may better create a short video for a portion of the video!

I cannot click speed change

Thanks for the video mate.

I have a question, how can I change the time of the clip based on the speed. Example, if at 100% my video is 5 seconds, then at 200% my video should be 2.5 seconds. However, Davinci resolve keeps the same time for the video clip.

Do you know how I can change that?

Cheers mate

When I try to adjust the speed, the duration of my clip stays the same and just brings back stuff I edited out. I am not sure what is happening or how to get it to just change it properly like in your video the duration changed

Thankyou this was easy to follow

Thank you! You are golden!

if i set it back to 100%, why does it not scale back to its original length ?

I have this problem, where when i try to speed up a clip, instead of like just speeding up the clip i just split up, but instead it just extends itself into the rest of the file i used even if i allready splitted it up, is there a way to just speed up the video without it doing this?

I speed up clips by 6000% a lot of the time.
When that happens, frame rate of that clips is 2400 making huge performance impact on real time playback.
How to stop it ?

I have the latest version of the free DaVinci. But my speed up button is grayed out. Do you need the upgrade you need to pay for to do this? Thanks.

appreciate it

is there a way to match the length of a video clip to another reference clip or audio maybe?
For something like a sped up drawing video with a song because manually matching the exact length of the audio is quite hard with the dragging wheel

and what do I do if I want to speed it up, and decrease the lenght of it while at it?

Why is it speeding up the clip beyond what I select? I make 2 cuts. Select middle chuck and speed it up. Speed is increased from the start of the middle. Goes well beyond the middle clip.

I would love this to be easier.. I to ripple time line and then it shrinks other clips around where I am working. so I have to then drag that clip to the end of the time line and then change the speed and drag it back... its a real pain.. as I have to first zoom out > change speed > drag clip near on another channer > zoom in > drag clip in > check to see if the speed is right.... if not do it all over again....
It should be ripple channel and not time line.

Thanks so much

TIP (since people are asking and no one seems to know): if you want to manually adjust the speed by dragging the clip on the timeline like you do in premiere and vegas pro, go to the edit tab select the clip and press ctrl+ r , you can now manually adjust, after that just press it again and you done.

I'm struggling, the red line/arrow goes super fast when I'm trying to edit. I'm not sure how to change it. Help

When i try to speed the clip up it still has the same speed as before but it grabs the next clips so it essentially combines the clip i wanted to speed up and the next clip into 1 which is the orignal clip's speed. How can i try to fix this?

is there another way to do this? ripple timeline throws everything out of wack for me. This doesn't happen in adobe premier where if you speed up a clip, it just shortens without effecting the timeline.

Is there any shortcut key+mouse button to ease the action? For example in Premiere, Ctrl+left mouse would do the same.

Thanks for the video, but doesn't DaVinci Resolve have a more practical way of doing that? Like in Sony Vegas for example, you can just hold down ctrl and drag the clip's corners in the timeline, so it automatically adjusts the speed of the clip according to the length you stretched it/shrinked it. Cause it's a pain in the ass to do micro-adjustments if I have to type in the length I want it to be, and more often than not, I don't know the exact numbers of the percentage I want it to be.

what about the linked audio ?

It appears that everytime I try to change the speed duration, It resets back to 100% everytime I tried to play the clip.. Do you have any idea what might causes them?

cheers!

Thankyou Sir!

how to I speed it up but the clip lenght is the one that I specify?

but why doesn't the length of the video adjust automatically?

Why doesn't it change the duration of the clip if it's double the speed though
Edit: Just figured it out, you have to select the "Ripple timeline" and "Stretch to fit"

Is it possible that this works only if you have the premium version of davinci?

Thanks, for some reason I completely overlooked that setting.

Btw: If you want the clip to be of the same section, make sure to tick the "ripple timeline" box, otherwise the clip will stay just as long and grab stuff that you may have deleted.

if i try to speed up a clip that is before another clip, it speeds up that clip but it also takes a part of the next clip and speeds that up too and i do not want that. How do i fix it?

Thank you

Thank you😊

I have issue. It speeds up and takes what was in next clip inside! Sick mistake of Resovle!

Thank youuuu ❤️

I wish I could just trim clips easier. Thanks for the video

nice video thx a lot

for some reason when i do this the other clips get affected

When I did that speed change it pulls in part of the trimmed section of the non selected clip

When i speed up my clip, it becomes really laggy? can you help?

and why does it sometimes JUST not work..... lol
