Rembg Fuse setup in DaVinci Resolve on macOS

This tutorial installs and configures rembg through Rembg Fuse, a third-party frontend for AI background removal in DaVinci Resolve on macOS. The presenter starts with the plugin files from its repository and a Python installation. Python 3.13 is the example shown; the tutorial advises checking which version Rembg requires rather than treating that example as a universal requirement.

The presenter locates Resolve's Fuses folder through the Fusion page, under Fusion Settings and Path Map. After copying the plugin folder there and restarting Resolve, they import footage and add the Rembg node to a Fusion composition. Adding the node alone does not activate the effect in this walkthrough. The next step is to open its configuration manager and select the recommended standard installation for macOS.

Model setup follows through Manage Models. The tutorial uses U2 NetP and ISNET general models, then checks that the downloaded files appear in the templates folder. These downloads are part of the local AI setup, so the demonstrated installation requires access to the package and model downloads.

For setup manager problems, the presenter recommends manually running its Python file from the rembg folder. They then close the manager and press the recharge button two or three times to refresh the model list. The final portion covers comparing model results, checking console logs for errors, and consulting the linked troubleshooting guide if the effect still fails.
