Summary
AI summaryExpanded Blackmagic API limitations catalogue to list 14 missing capabilities plus 9 bugs.
Full changelog
v2.57.3
Expanded the Blackmagic-facing API-limitations catalogue with a live surface audit. See docs/reference/api-limitations.md.
Added (missing capabilities)
A dir() audit of the live Resolve 21.0.0 API objects (ProjectManager, Project, MediaPool, MediaPoolItem, Timeline, TimelineItem, Graph), diffed against the UI feature set, surfaced 8 gaps we had not catalogued:
- Timeline-item trim / move / re-time — getters only (
GetStart/GetLeftOffset/…), no setters; a placed clip can't be trimmed, slipped, moved, or re-timed. - Razor / blade / split of a timeline item — no method.
- Clip speed / retime ratio & speed ramps —
SetPropertyexposes only retime quality, not the speed value. - Color node-graph editing + primary grade values — no node add/delete/connect; no read/write of lift/gamma/gain/curves/qualifiers/windows (only CDL/DRX/LUT).
- Fairlight audio — no clip/track level, pan, EQ, automation, or FairlightFX control.
- Proxy / optimized-media generation — only link/unlink existing.
- Insert / Overwrite / Replace / Fit-to-Fill edit modes — only append.
- Smart Bins / Power Bins creation — only regular bins.
Verified
- The four previously doc-derived "missing" entries (per-clip audio stereo↔mono, native multicam creation, transitions, cloud list/export/user) were confirmed absent against the live API surface.
Changed
- The generated report now carries an explicit Scope & completeness note: it is a surface audit + incident log and is not guaranteed exhaustive (it doesn't catch parameters that exist-but-misbehave or capabilities never exercised). The report now lists 14 missing capabilities + 9 bugs.
Validation
- Static checks, all drift guards (including
test_api_limitations_doc),api_truthtests,node --version, andnpm pack --dry-runclean. - Live introspection run against DaVinci Resolve Studio 21.0.0 (read-only surface dump; one disposable timeline created and deleted, no media touched).
