Windows on Arm has achieved a major milestone with the release of Blackmagic’s DaVinci Resolve, which has officially moved beyond beta and is now available for both X86 and Windows on Arm systems.
For some time, Qualcomm has emphasized DaVinci Resolve as a crucial application that underscores the capabilities of its Snapdragon X Elite processors and the Windows on Arm ecosystem. This widely-used video editing software, which offers a free version as well as a more feature-rich Studio license for professionals, serves as a significant endorsement of the platform’s ability to handle high-performance tasks.
The Windows on Arm edition of DaVinci Resolve, alongside the X86 version, can be downloaded directly from Blackmagic’s website, and both versions feature the same comprehensive toolset. While DaVinci Resolve can manage media files of various resolutions, it limits output and mastering to Ultra HD on Windows platforms and supports only a single GPU, unlike the dual GPU configuration available on Mac Pro systems.
The new DaVinci Resolve 19.0 update brings several enhancements, including the ability to sync media live during recording, and AI-powered features for isolating voices, remixing music, and applying tracking and stabilization, further enhancing the editing experience.
