Why DaVinci Database Merger?

Integrity

Metadata.db Synchronization

DaVinci Resolve ignores manually copied projects if its SQLite cache is not updated. Our app atomically rebuilds the project_metadata index.

SQLite3 EngineZero Errors
Compatibility

.resolve.diskdb Support

Directly parses and extracts compressed DaVinci Resolve backups on the fly without having to restore them one by one inside Resolve.

DecompressionIn-Memory
Safety

Duplicate Collision Resolver

When two projects share the same name across libraries, safely preserve both by auto-tagging with source library names or keeping the newest cut.

From Chaos to Master Library

The real post-production pain: dozens of scattered database folders and backup bundles on external drives that DaVinci Resolve cannot merge natively.

BEFORE // FRAGMENTED DISKS

Scattered & Inaccessible Folders

Before: Scattered DaVinci Resolve project database folders on disk

Years of projects trapped across loose directories like Resolve Disk Database, Davinci Resolve Backups, and diskdb bundles. Resolve only connects one library at a time, forcing you to manually export/import .drp files one by one.

Frequently Asked Questions & Backups

Everything you need to know about backing up, restoring, and batch-merging DaVinci Resolve databases and project archives on macOS.

How do I backup, restore, and merge DaVinci Resolve databases on Mac?

DaVinci Resolve stores projects inside disk Project Libraries or compressed .resolve.diskdb archives. Natively, Resolve only allows connecting one library at a time and restoring archives one by one. With DaVinci Database Merger, you can batch-scan external backup drives, extract projects directly from diskdb backups, and automatically compile them into a unified master library with atomic SQLite Metadata.db synchronization.

Where does DaVinci Resolve store project databases and backup archives on macOS?

By default, local Project Libraries are stored in: ~/Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/DaVinci Resolve/Resolve Project Library/. Exported database backups create folder bundles or compressed archives ending in .resolve.diskdb. DaVinci Database Merger automatically discovers both formats across internal drives and external Thunderbolt/USB-C storage.

Can I extract projects from .resolve.diskdb backup archives without opening DaVinci Resolve?

Yes. DaVinci Database Merger features a high-performance C-API engine that reads and decompresses .resolve.diskdb backup archives on the fly in memory. You can extract and consolidate historical projects without launching Resolve, setting up dummy databases, or manually exporting individual .drp files.

Is there any risk of overwriting, data corruption, or losing color grades?

Zero risk. The software operates with a strict 100% non-destructive guarantee: source project folders and backup volumes are accessed strictly in read-only mode, and the consolidated master library is written to a new destination folder. Automatic name collision handling safely preserves identical project names without overwriting.

Which DaVinci Resolve versions and Mac processors are supported?

Full compatibility with projects from DaVinci Resolve Studio and Free versions 17, 18, and 19. The application is compiled natively in Swift 6 for Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, and M4 chips) and Intel Macs, supporting macOS Monterey, Ventura, Sonoma, and macOS Sequoia.
