In this video I go over the basics of how to create custom transition presets in DaVinci Resolve 17. This is one of the greatest new features in DaVinci Resolve 17 that allows you to quickly and easily make custom transitions within Fusion, incorporate them on the Edit page, and save them for later. It’s just as easy to save the transitions out as a .setting file to pass along to others to install too.

You can install transitions by copying the .setting file to one of the following locations depending on what operating system you are using:

Windows: C:\Program Files\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve\Fusion\Templates\Edit\Transitions

Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/DaVinci Resolve/Fusion/Templates/Edit/Transitions

Linux (Ubuntu): /opt/resolve/Fusion/Templates/Edit/Transitions
