Since DaVinci Resolve Studio cannot be installed directly via AUR helpers like paru or yay, I suggest adding and pinning a clear step-by-step guide for beginners explaining how to build and install the package from the local installer.

The instructions should also include how to obtain the required .zip file from the official Blackmagic Design website:

  1. Go to https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/support
  2. In the "Latest Downloads" section, select the latest version of "DaVinci Resolve Studio" for Linux
  3. Fill out the registration form (name, email, etc.)
  4. After submitting, a .zip file will be downloaded automatically – this file must be placed in the same directory as the PKGBUILD before building
  5. Continue ...

Such a guide would be helpful for users new to Arch-based systems who legally own a DRS license but are unfamiliar with manual package building.

IMPORTANT!

Since version 19.1.3-2 this package will not download automatically the source file from the upstream site.

To build this package you will need to manually download the file from https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/support/family/davinci-resolve-and-fusion and place it in the same directory with the PKGBUILD.

This would reduce the mess in this package, making it more readable and clear. Also bypassing the required information from the upstream URL is not allowed in an automated way.

To anyone having problems with the "normalize audio levels" pop up window dissapearing on Hyprland, I posted a fix to the blackmagic forums: https://forum.blackmagicdesign.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=235150

@rex2k1 Here's what I did: I installed PulseAudio (you have to have PulseAudio-ALSA already installed), then in the sound settings, I switched from "analog stereo output" to "analog stereo duplex" and it started working again! However, with PulseAudio, sometimes my system loses sound out of nowhere. Then I have to restart PulseAudio. But it solves the problem for now.

Also having problems with sound out. Also if I put the mouse over the icon in the bar, the thumbnail of the app that appear is blinking and also, the icons near the clock (bottom right) are also blinking. Downgraded to 20.3.1 doesn't fix. Is not a codec problem as I convert all videos since I started with DaVinci Resolve Studio and I tried with a video that worked correctly some days ago (and I think that was with version 20.3.2) and now no any sound (but I can see the wave in the program)

I'm having sound problems; there's no signal coming out. I initially thought it might be a Pipeware or Pulse issue, but it's not. I tried debugging, but no errors or warnings appeared. So I believe it's some updated Arch package. Anyone else having the same problem?

This aur package for rocm works for me with Davinci resolve studio 20.3.2 and Radeon RX 7900 XT: rocm-nightly-gfx110x-bin 7.13.0a20260327-1

I had to alter the pkgbuild to make it provide opencl-driver, and then create an icd manually to point to the driver: Create file /etc/OpenCL/vendors/amdocl64.icd (and parent directories if required) with contents: /opt/rocm/lib/opencl/libamdocl64.so

For the time being until the ROCM issue is ironed out rather than continually downgrading the packages on every system upgrade, I'm just using ignore in the command line upgrade. See example: yay -Syyu --ignore=hsa-rocr,spirv-llvm-translator,rocminfo,rocm-core,rocm-device-libs,rocm-opencl-runtime,rocm-llvm,rocprofiler-register. I'm sure most have also come up with something as well. Developers please do give a heads up when it is safe to resume upgrading these packages. Thank You.

Regarding segfault on amd, this fix will hopefully fix the issue when it propagates into packages: https://github.com/ROCm/rocm-systems/pull/2586 Issue: https://github.com/ROCm/ROCm/issues/5970

Hello everyone, I’m new to Arch (well, actually Manjaro). I managed to install davinci-resolve-studio 20.3.2-1 and launch it. However, I ran into quite a few issues, so I’m sharing my solutions.

My configuration:

Kernel: Linux 6.18.12-1-MANJARO

DE: KDE Plasma 6.5.5 (Wayland)

CPU: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12700K (20) @ 5.00 GHz

GPU 1: AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT [Discrete]

GPU 2: Intel UHD Graphics 770 @ 1.50 GHz [Integrated]

First issue: I couldn’t activate the license key. To fix it, I ran these two commands:

sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /opt/resolve/.license

sudo chmod 755 /opt/resolve/.license

Then I relaunched it and it worked.

Second issue: the project launcher works, but when I opened a project it crashed immediately.

At first I thought Wayland was the problem, but it wasn’t. The issue was that opencl-mesa was conflicting with ROCm.

First I checked where it was being used:

pactree -r opencl-mesa

Since only DaVinci was listed, I removed the package:

sudo pacman -Rs opencl-mesa

And just like that, it works for me. That’s my first small contribution.

@DonMobliano, alternatively you can use git to grab the package (putting it anywhere you want):

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/davinci-resolve-studio.git

Or using the paru or yay AUR helper, seeing as you have paru already. This does the same thing as the git clone above:

paru -G davinci-resolve-studio

yay -G davinci-resolve-studio

That'll create a davinci-resolve-studio directory in the current directory, with the package contents. You can download the DaVinci Resolve Studio file into that, then from within that directory, run this to build and install the package:

makepkg -fsri

DonMobliano commented on 2026-02-19 21:15 (UTC)

For folks new to AUR and who are wondering "Where in the heck is the PKGBUILD directory that everyone is talking about?", this can be found in the following location: $HOME/.cache/paru/clone/davinci-resolve-studio/

After copying the downloaded zip file to the above directory, you should be able to run: paru -S davinci-resolve-studio
