Overview

CRTizo is a free Fusion Fuse for DaVinci Resolve that recreates the look of classic CRT monitors and televisions directly on your footage. Drop it after any node and choose from six preset styles: Scanlines for the classic horizontal CRT bands, RGB Dots and Aperture Grille for phosphor triad patterns, Grid for a subtle screen door effect, Slot Mask for staggered stadium phosphors, and Crosshairs for a focus reticle overlay.

Every style is built from simple, fast controls. Set the overall effect opacity, pick the scanline style, then tune line spacing, line thickness, and brightness to sell the effect at any resolution. Crosshairs add a rotatable reticle for viewfinder and camera overlay looks.

Element sizes are capped so the video always shows through the pattern, and the effect renders entirely inside Fusion with no external files or extra nodes. Installed with a one-drag Lua installer and free from the Clipizo store.

Setup & help guide for CRTizo Install, find it in Resolve, the controls, common problems, uninstall

CRTizo Scanline-engine Fuse. This guide covers the six-style screen-pattern build.

Install
  1. Extract the complete ZIP before installing. Keep its How to Install.txt beside the files.
  2. Resolve Studio / Fusion Studio: drag the supplied Lua Studio installer into the Fusion Nodes area, follow its prompts, then restart the application.
  3. Resolve Free: close Resolve and copy CRTizo.fuse to your user Fuses folder. Create that folder if needed.
  4. Windows user Fuses folder: %AppData%\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve\Support\Fusion\Fuses
  5. macOS user Fuses folder: ~/Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/DaVinci Resolve/Fusion/Fuses/
  6. Restart Resolve. Use the instructions in your package if its installer or host version differs.
Where it appears in Resolve

Fusion → Shift+Space → CRTizo. Insert it between your image and MediaOut: MediaIn → CRTizo → MediaOut.

Controls in plain words

Some controls appear only after choosing the relevant mode.

Screen pattern
Enable
Turns the effect on or passes the original image through.
Opacity
Blends the screen pattern with the original image.
Scanline Style
Chooses horizontal Scanlines, RGB Dots, Aperture Grille, Grid, Slot Mask or Crosshairs.
Line Spacing
Sets the distance between repeated pattern elements.
Line Thickness
Sets element thickness; the renderer limits it to keep gaps in the pattern.
Brightness
Adjusts the brightness of the patterned image.
Crosshair Rotation
Rotates the Crosshairs style. It has no effect on the other styles.
Clipizo on YouTube / YouTube
Opens the Clipizo channel in your browser. It does not change the image.
Common problems
Not in the tool search
Extract the ZIP, check that the file still ends in .fuse, and restart Resolve after copying it. Use the user Fuses location for a manual install. Avoid installing a second copy of the same tool.
An older interface still appears
Resolve caches Fuse code. Fully restart it, then try a newly added node; an existing node may retain saved values.
No visible change
Connect an image, turn Enable on and raise Opacity. Inspect the viewer at full size so fine screen patterns are visible.
Crosshair Rotation does nothing
Select Crosshairs in Scanline Style first.
Uninstall
  1. Close Resolve / Fusion. Move only CRTizo.fuse out of the Fuses folder where you installed it, to a backup folder outside the Fusion search folders.
  2. If you used the Studio installer, check the destination it reported (which can be the shared Clipizo/Fuses folder). Leave other Clipizo files in place.
  3. Restart the application. Existing projects using this tool will need it reinstalled to render the same result.
