AutoSubs V1 Broken on Resolve 19.1 Free - Blackmagic has decided to remove the built in UI manager from the free version of Resolve. It is now required to have Resolve 19.0.3 or below, unless on Studio, so you may need to downgrade. (Resolve Studio is unaffected)

Light Version

Note

Audio transcription has been removed on this version. This means less setup, but a subtitles (SRT) file is required as input. Use this if you already have a way of transcribing video (such as Davinci Resolve Studio's built-in subtitles feature, or CapCut subtitles) and you just want subtitles with a custom theme.

Creates themed subtitles from an SRT file.

Step 1

Install any version of Python (tick "Add python.exe to PATH" during installation)

Step 2

Download auto-subs-light.py and place it in the Utility folder of the Fusion Scripts folder.

FAQ

1. Auto-Subs not opening

Verify that Resolve detects your Python installation by opening the Console from the top menu/toolbar in Resolve and clicking py3 at the top of the console. Ensure that Path in your system environment variables contains the following:

  • C:\Users\<your-user-name>\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312
  • C:\Users\<your-user-name>\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\Scripts\

2. Can't find Fusion folder

Use Everything to quickly search your computer for it (Windows only).

3. MacOS Error

<urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: self-signed certificate in certificate chain (_ssl.c:1006)>

Solution: Run this command in the terminal (replace the Python directory with wherever Python is installed on your computer).

/Applications/Python\ 3.11/Install\ Certificates.command

4. Check Python version being used by Resolve

import sys + print (sys.version) in the Resolve console.
