They'd rather add agentic AI support instead of adding proper codec support on the free Linux version (which is already supported on Windows).

It’s because those codecs require SDK’s that are expensive to license. That’s not a Linux specific issue - it’s always been that way for the non-studio version of Resolve (with some exceptions on MacOS since the ProRes codecs are already part of the OS).

Is it surprising that they’d rather make features that cater to a large portion of their user base instead of a tiny fraction of it?
