"We set out to solve one of the most common frustrations we hear — finding and changing settings on your PC — using the power of AI agents," Navjot Virk, corporate vice president of Windows Experiences at Microsoft, said in a blog post on Tuesday. "An agent uses on-device AI to understand your intent and with your permission, automate and execute tasks."

Fair, I’ve seen a ton of complaints about Resolve’s lack of AAC support for far too long, so if your workflow depends on AAC encoding and decoding directly inside Resolve you shouldn’t have to bend over backwards to work around that.

That said I’ve done all of my video editing in Resolve Studio on Linux for years now and haven’t had any trouble. I’m using an Atomos Ninja to record, since my camera outputs 10-bit 4:2:2 over its HDMI port but records 8-bit 4:2:0 internally. The Ninja records PCM and so the AAC issue has never bitten me.

The only thing I can complain to Blackmagic Design about is their official support of Rocky Linux only. The udev rules for things like the Speed Editor or Micro Color Panel don’t work properly for Ubuntu- or Arch-based distros, meaning anyone who wants official support is stuck with their specific modified Rocky Linux ISO. Through trial and error I’ve proven that it works fine on AlmaLinux 9.5 too, so that’s what I’m using, but honestly I’d rather be using something with a newer kernel and better hardware support.
