The application polls DaVinci Resolve every 20 seconds via the official Blackmagic Design Scripting API. When Resolve is detected it establishes a Discord Rich Presence connection and updates your status with:
- Details — current project name (e.g.
Project: My Film) - State — active timeline name (e.g.
Timeline: Assembly Cut) - Elapsed time — resets each time you switch projects
When Resolve is closed the presence is cleared automatically.
