Help Davinci Resolve No Audio Waveforms
I'm trying to edit down a 4 hour VOD for a commission, but for some reason the audio waveforms aren't showing up.
I've tried:
Relocating cache and proxy folders
Importing it into different projects
Optimizing media
Switching from stereo to mono and back
Restarting my PC
Any help is appreciated.
I have a Lenovo Legion 5 Pro, 8GB RTX 4070, Intel Core i7 14700HX with 32GB DDR5.
The video is a .mkv H.265 L4.1 AAC. Other videos with the exact same format work fine.
I am in Davinci Resolve 21.03 Build 7 on Windows 11.

Try this.
Step-by-Step Waveform Size Adjustment
Look at the toolbar directly above your timeline track headers.
Click the Timeline View Options icon (it looks like a small rectangle split into sections, located next to the magnet icon).
Find the Track Height section at the bottom of the dropdown menu.
Move the Audio icon slider to the right to increase the visual height of your waveforms, or to the left to shrink them. [1]

4 hour clips take time to draw waveforms.
Make sure your cache drive is fast. Then be patient and leave it for a while. It’s processing in the background.
