Rocky Linux is a free, open source operating system that’s binary compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux. It’s also the replacement for CentOS, and the only Linux distro now supported by the DaVinci Resolve video editor, compositor and colour correction application. This video introduces Rocky Linux, with a focus on creating a setup with DaVinci Resolve successfully installed on a PC with an NVIDIA graphics card.

Rocky Linux is available from: rockylinux.org

DaVinci Resolve is available from: blackmagicdesign.com/uk/products/davinciresolve
