Setup and Installation

Set Up DaVinci Collaboration Mode with Your OWC Jellyfish

To setup DaVinci collaboration mode with your OWC Jellyfish, you will first want to set up your switch connection with your OWC Jellyfish. For instructions on how to do this, please reference these articles:

For optimal performance, it is best to have a direct connection from your computer to the OWC Jellyfish, in addition to a connection to the OWC Jellyfish via a switch. See example down below.

Step 1:

Open DaVinci Resolve

Step 2:

Click on the Network tab, then click ‘Add Project Library’.

Step 3:

Give your library a name. For 'Location' you will want to input the IP address that your OWC Jellyfish uses to connect to your switch. You can find this on the OWC Jellyfish Manager Networks page (this will typically be the port that has DHCP enabled). Then enter the following username and password

Username: postgres

Password: DaVinci

Step 4:

Click 'Create' to complete the setup. Your Project Library will now be available for use in DaVinci Resolve.

Note: If you wish to connect to an existing Project Library, you will perform the same steps, except that you will type in the name of the existing Project Library instead of making up a new one.
