How to fix DaVinci error when launching any AutoCut process?

If DaVinci Resolve shows an error modal when you try to run any AutoCut process (for example, even a simple one like automatic noise level detection in AutoCut Silences), the issue often comes from the missing AutoCutRender export configuration.

Follow the steps below to fix it:

1. Check if the “AutoCutRender” configuration is available

Open DaVinci Resolve.
Go to your Deliver page.
In the render presets, look for the configuration called AutoCutRender.

AutoCut Render

💡 If it is present → skip to step 3

2. Re-install the “AutoCutRender” configuration

If the configuration is missing or not working properly:

First, delete any broken AutoCutRender preset.
Download the correct file here
Extract the zip file on your computer. You should have a AutoCutRender.xml
In DaVinci Resolve, go back to the Deliver page.
Import the .xml file into your render presets.

Import File

3. Relaunch AutoCut

After importing the configuration:

Restart DaVinci Resolve.
Run your AutoCut process again.

✅ The error should now be resolved.

👉 If the issue continues after reinstalling the preset, please contact our Support Team.
