The right room
for the work in front of you.
Bring clients into the grade, work through a cut together, or operate the suite remotely. We built Sessions for live review and Workstation for remote suite control, with native players for review rooms and Facility Streamer for facility sources.
Find your
workflow.
Remote Desktop for DaVinci ResolveRemote access to DaVinci Resolve on supported macOS and Linux hosts through a browser or native macOS Workstation client, with tablet input and host-specific display support.
Keep Resolve on your macOS or Linux workstation and connect through a supported browser or the native macOS Workstation client, with tablet input and two displays where supported. The host agent connects outbound, so the facility does not need to open inbound ports for it.

Review the grade with the client while the colourist works. VDO Sessions streams live picture and sound with SDR, HDR and theatrical/DCI colour workflows. HDR playback depends on the source, player and display.
Read guideRemote Workstation for Linux NVIDIARemote access to supported Linux workstations through a browser or native macOS client, with tablet input, two-display support and NVIDIA-backed 4:4:4 where supported.
VDO Workstation connects VFX and finishing operators to supported Linux hosts through a browser or native macOS client, with tablet input and two displays where supported. Linux desktop 4:4:4 requires a supported NVIDIA GPU; the native client can also receive a separate reference feed from supported Linux hosts.

Read guideColour & editorial.
The grade, on a calibrated screen.“My client needs to review the grade on a calibrated display while I make adjustments.”
VDO Streamer sends the grade to a Colour room, with 8/10-bit 4:2:2 / 4:4:4 and HDR PQ / HDR HLG on supported playback paths. The native Apple TV player brings the review to the screening-room display. Colour rooms run peer-to-peer where the network allows it; distance, routing and the playback path still affect latency.
Sessions for colourThe cut, with the producer in the room.“I want to walk a client through a cut and work through their notes together.”
VDO Streamer sends the cut through an Editorial-room relay. The producer joins on iPad, the exec watches on Apple TV, and the editor scrubs and plays the cut from the suite. AAC and PCM audio paths carry music and dialogue on supported players; clients can also join in Chrome or Safari.
Sessions for editorialReview & supervise.
Mark up frames, drive the suite.“Review shots with a distributed team, mark up frames in context, and sometimes be in the suite from a hotel.”
Use an Editorial room to review shots with on-screen drawing tools, then Workstation to operate the suite remotely. Workstation carries pen pressure, tilt, rotation and eraser-tip events to supported host applications.
WorkstationStream dailies. Skip the export round.“Stream dailies to stakeholders without burning exports or managing download links.”
Create a live Session and share the review link with your stakeholders. They watch in Chrome, Safari, on iPad or on the screening-room Apple TV. We do not record or archive live media.*
Sessions for editorialStudios & freelance.
Review rooms and remote suites, together.“I need editorial review, colour sessions and remote operators in the same facility workflow.”
Sessions covers live editorial and colour review; Workstation connects remote operators to the suites. Manage team access and review-link expiry. We can discuss fixed-region relay and on-prem deployment requirements during onboarding.
Ask about accessBring clients into the live review.“I want to review work with clients from my own suite.”
Publish picture and sound with VDO Streamer. Clients watch in Chrome, Safari or a native player, using a review path that fits their device and connection. In Resolve, the OFX plugin can supply the NDI source for your stream.
Ask about accessFacilities & timelines.
Multi-stream, self-hosted.“I need to send picture and sound from several edit bays and grading suites into live review rooms.”
Install Facility Streamer on a supported Linux host to publish multiple HD or UHD streams into VDO Sessions. Stream count depends on source format, GPU and network capacity; we work through the host requirements during onboarding.
Facility StreamerNDI straight from the timeline.“I live inside DaVinci Resolve. I want my client to see exactly what I’m looking at without buying a capture card.”
The VDO OFX plugin publishes its output as a colour-tagged NDI source during Resolve playback. Send it to VDO Streamer for a live Session, NDI Studio Monitor or another compatible NDI consumer on your LAN.
