Arch Linux User Repository

IMPORTANT!

Since version 19.1.3-2 this package will not download automatically the source file from the upstream site.

To build this package you will need to manually download the file from https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/support/family/davinci-resolve-and-fusion and place it in the same directory with the PKGBUILD.

This would reduce the mess in this package, making it more readable and clear. Also bypassing the required information from the upstream URL is not allowed in an automated way.

Issues and bugs, please report on the official forum here: https://forum.blackmagicdesign.com/viewforum.php?f=21&sid=239f0d5c49abe5d6a635b69638192e9a Thank you!

Visit DaVinci Resolve - ArchWiki before installing: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DaVinci_Resolve

ATTENTION: Please don't flag this package as out-of-date before beta version has been released as stable!

This is a current stable Package!

The current free beta is available here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/davinci-resolve-beta/

And for current studio beta here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/davinci-resolve-studio-beta/

Thanks.

The source download will not work with the current curl parameters as the overridden Host header is different from what CloudFlare in front of the download server expects. I did the following changes to PKGBUILD to remove unnecessary parameters and add the street field and it works.

Hello The url to the DaVinci_Resolve_18.1.4_Linux.zip is expired. thx

ups, read before write sorry

using the helpful comment from @jshcmpbli the PKGBUILD could be altered (as provided here) to allow installation. installation worked fine on my arch-derivative.

_reqjson="{ \
    \"firstname\": \"Arch\", \
    \"lastname\": \"Linux\", \
    \"email\": \"someone@archlinux.org\", \
    \"phone\": \"202-555-0194\", \

}"

Looks like Blackmagic added a street field to the existing payload request.

Here is the update in Nix - https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/242751

Looks like their website isn't letting you download directly without filling out their form.

Here's a modified PKGBUILD that assumes the file (DaVinci_Resolve_18.1.4_Linux.zip) is in the current directory, this can be installed using makepkg -si :

# Maintainer: Alex S. <shantanna_at_hotmail_dot_com>
# Contributor: Jonathon Fernyhough <jonathon_at_manjaro_dot_org>

# Hardware support is limited. Nvidia cards should work fine.
# If you're running a hybrid setup, try with primusrun/optirun.

Hello, its seems there are a problem with the source. The link is dead and when I try to install I have this error ==> ERROR: DaVinci_Resolve_18.1.4_Linux.zip was not found in the build directory and is not a URL.

Thanks

Variable _srcurl has the following value: "Error: Must register to be able to perform the download".

What did I do wrong?
