Da Vinci Resolve is deceiving. You can get a free version, so it must be easy to use right?
Well no, it is still a professional editing and grading package, and it has very powerful delivery options, but you really do need to know what you are doing to get the best out of it. You can select the YouTube preset, but it seems to be designed to suit the needs of people shooting material on their phone. I shoot in 4K, I create a 4K timeline, edit in 4K, grade in 4K and deliver in 4K and when uploaded to Youtube, it looks reasonably OK.
You need to carefully explore the delivery options, there are many combinations of settings in that section of Resolve that affect the output quality. My finished videos are relatively large and take a longish time to upload to Youtube, but the results are worth it. Always look at the file size produced, it is a fair indication of how good the finished product will look.
