  1. Hello. I would ask for Blackmagic Design Davinci Resolve Speed Editor.
    I have Dongle Plus Speed Editor.
    Davinci Resolv is installed with a computer with Windows 11

    Unfortunately, it works only on USB when you are connected does not work with Bluetooth.
    Although Davinci sees how many batteries remained in Speed Editor.

    I would like to ask how to solve the problem
    thank you

  2. I watched some of your videos and found out you speak to your audience as if they know all the functions of the layout keys.
    Please realize that there are thousands of people who are really novice about the speed editor and need to know step by step each and every single button what’s its functions. Else, you will be talking to yourself. I myself is a teacher and when I introduce a new subject i do my best effort to convey the info clearly to all the students as they lack the simplest details of a new subject. Thus stepping down to their level is very essential. so, kindly take your time with us novice or rather called beginners.
