Known Issues in Codec Plugin for DaVinci Resolve Studio 1.7: 

• DaVinci Resolve Studio v20 (and newer) native NVENC presets only work with the MainConcept Codec Plugin v1.7 due to a conflict between different NVIDIA SDK versions used in the plugin and in Resolve Studio. If you use DaVinci Resolve Studio 19 or older, you need to stick to the previous version 1.6 or 1.6.1 of the MainConcept Codec Plugin.
  
• Users can only load a separate AS-11 UK DPP XML metadata file, but not edit the fields inside DaVinci Resolve Studio. However, the XML file can be manually edited using a text editor.
  
• Due to the plug-in interface of Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve Studio, the Resolution and Frame rate options should be handled with care. Some resolutions and / or frame rates might not be compliant with the specific preset you have selected. It might not be valid by the official specs from Sony, Panasonic or DPP although you can choose a different parameter here. Some frame rates are not available in the corresponding drop-down menu, e.g. 25, 50, 60 fps, etc. However, before you start with a project in Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve Studio, you can specify the timeline’s frame rate to one of these values (File > Project Settings > Timeline frame rate). If you then render the project later and this frame rate is supported by the preset, it is also used for exporting the timeline.
