From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

BMD bought Resolve maybe 15 years ago now, but the support is not limited to BMD hardware. It was more of a way for them to ensure BMD hardware support in a video editor at the time. Personally I have their web presenter and an older model of their TV studio kit at home (long story), but I also have a variety of other hardware, all of which works just fine with Resolve.

I'm using Resolve on the regular for my VHS conversions, though some tasks would be easier with the premium instead of the free version, I just fill in with ffmpeg or other tools and move on.

Just FYI, the download will ask for an email/name/etc, but the download starts right away, so you don't need to actually give any PII out to get it.
