How to Import Image Sequence in DaVinci Resolve

Can I import image sequence in DaVinci Resolve? Yes, here's how:

1. Go to the Media Page in DaVinci Resolve (shortcut Shift+2). From there, open up the Media Storage window and click on the three dots at the top of the window. This will bring up a drop-down menu.

2. From the drop-down menu, select "Frame Display Mode" and then select "Individual". This will ensure that each image file is displayed as an individual frame, rather than as a group of frames.

‍

Now, when you import a bulk set of image files into DaVinci Resolve, they will automatically be imported as an image sequence. You can easily drag and drop the sequence into your timeline and start editing away.

This method saves you the hassle of having to manually select each individual frame and import them one by one. It's a quick and efficient way to get your image sequences up and running in in your DaVinci timeline.
