Davinci Resolve Studio supports hardware-based decoding for H.264 and H.265 (HEVC) which can significantly improve performance with these codecs, but not all “flavors” of these codecs are supported depending on the bit depth and chroma subsampling used. In addition, support can change depending on the capability of the hardware in your system. In order to determine exactly what is supported, we decided to do our own testing to see exactly what types of H.264/5 media has hardware decoding support in DaVinci Resolve Studio.

Premiere Pro GPU Decoding for H.264 and HEVC media – is it faster?
In the latest version of Premiere Pro, Adobe has added support for GPU-based H264/H.265 (HEVC) hardware decoding with both NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. How well does this feature work, and is it faster than the previous hardware decoding that utilized Intel Quick Sync?
