Part 1: What is the .braw file?
Part 2: Convert BRAW to MP4 with DaVinci Resolve
Part 3: Convert rendered videos to ProRes, H.264, MPEG with Acrok Video Covnerter Ultimate
A BRAW file is a Blackmagic RAW video file. Blackmagic RAW is a new video codec that combines the quality and benefits of RAW with ease of use. If you want to open a .braw file on your computer, you need to have the appropriate program installed. If the .braw file association isn't set correctly, you may receive an error message. Currently, only Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve can open .braw files, meaning you can't import BRAW files directly into Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro, Vegas Pro, or Avid Media Composer. Additionally, you can't play captured BRAW video with a regular video player.
Because the BRAW video format is very new and specialized, most video converters on the market cannot import this format, let alone convert it to other video formats or codecs. Through our research, we've found that converting .braw files requires a two-step process:
Below, I'll share all the details of this process with you.
1. Download and install the latest DaVinci Resolve at https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve. It is available on macOS, Windows, and Linux. (Here, I’m using DaVinci Resolve 19)
Note: The “Studio” version is paid software. Download the free program, which is by the plain name of “DaVinci Resolve”. Both versions come with a Blackmagic RAW Player on which you can play the BRAW files natively.
2. Run DaVinci Resolve. Over the top-left menu, click “File” > “Import” > “Media" (or press “Ctrl + I“) to import the BRAW file into the media pool.

3. At the bottom of the screen, click on the far right “Deliver” tab that looks like a rocket ship.

4. The “Render Settings” section will show up on the upper-left of the workspace. You can follow the provided options (Filename, Location, Format, Codec, Encoder, Resolution, Frame rate, Quality, etc.) to render BRAW as MP4, lower the resolution, change quality, any way you like. When you are ready, click “Add to Render Queue” at the bottom right.

5. Now, your file will be available over the upper-right “Render Queue” section. Click “Render All” below to export the BRAW file as H.264 MP4.

HandBrake is a tool for converting video from nearly any format to a selection of modern, widely supported codecs. Typically, each video will be a single file that you can copy to your computer, and later open using HandBrake. Common video file types are MP4 or M4V, MOV, MPG or MPEG, AVI and any DVD or Blu-Ray files that do not contain any type of copy protection. HandBrake can open web videos in FLV, WEBM, MP4, and many other formats.

Acrok Video Converter runs on a pretty high amount of system resources and quickly finishes a transcoding job without causing us any difficulties along the way. 4K Blu-ray disc cracking function is my favorite. I can rip and convert 4K Blu-ray movies to H.264 MP4 for playing on Samsung 4K TV via USB flash drive.
