Unfortunately the free version on Linux doesn't support H.264/H.265 and even the paid version doesn't support AAC so using Resolve requires you to transcode if you're using any normal consumer camera.
Use OPUS. Better and free.
The point was probably that if your equipment or sources use aac, you will need to transcode it, losing quality in the process. We don't always control our media sources and the formats they use.
That's it exactly. Most consumer camera gear uses H.264/H.265 for video and AAC for audio in an MP4 container and the free version of Davinci Resolve just doesn't support that on Linux. (But does on Windows)
If it even doesn't support import and export in those formats, you can try externally decode audio and video and store in lossless format. FLAC for audio and something like FFV1 for video.
