EDL Format not importing correctly with DaVinci Resolve 18.1.3 Build 8
The current format out of the box:
001 START V C 00:00:00:00 00:01:20:00 00:00:00:00 00:01:20:00
002 V C 00:01:20:00 00:02:55:00 00:01:20:00 00:02:55:00
003 V C 00:02:55:00 00:05:05:00 00:02:55:00 00:05:05:00
Seems to be missing CLIP# in the 2nd column for Da Vinci Resolve to correctly split as far as I can tell.
I was able to work around with this awk oneliner in the mean time.
awk -F ' ' '{if($2 != "START"){$2 =" CLIP"NR-1" V\t" } print $0 }'
Result:
001 START V C 00:00:00:00 00:01:20:00 00:00:00:00 00:01:20:00
002 CLIP1 V C 00:01:20:00 00:02:55:00 00:01:20:00 00:02:55:00
003 CLIP2 V C 00:02:55:00 00:05:05:00 00:02:55:00 00:05:05:00
in my experience it also does not work in Resolve 18.5. I tested on free version and on Resolve Studio.
I also noticed that the label for a Marker is truncated in InfoWriter output but not when exported from Resolve so I'd prefer that option. I currently am outputing to txt simple data and then converted it to EDL afterwards.
The format that Resolve outputs is rather different than the current EDL output, here is a sample from 18.5: Quick Note: DaVinci Resolve starts timestamps at 01:00:00:00 even though that means start of timeline, I am not sure why it starts with 01. (my research suggests a hollywood thing)
