DAVINCI RESOLVE PREMIERE CC FILES MISSING PROBLEM

Davinci is driving me crazy !

I have 7 clips stored on my local hard drive. They are PRO RES files from my blackmagic pocket camera.
Shot at 24fps, 1920 x 1080.
I export an XML

I go into DAVINCI RESOLVE 10 lite.
I import XML

Receive an error message

"...21 of 21 clips were not yet found..."
"...DO you want to select another folder to search..."

You press NO - the clips come up as blanks.
You press YES - shows you 1 folder c:\voIO ( there is nothing in this folder, you cant add folders, browse or do anything.

I tried placing all media in this C:\\voIO folder still nothing. I refreshed still nothing, Tried different hard drives, tried different file names still nothing.

Looked everywhere on the net - no solutions... some people suggested it was a timecode issue but not sure how to fix this...

I have liked some of the videos i have seen that have been graded in davinci thought i will give it a go and experiment with 7 short clips and 4 hours later im still trying to figure out how to import them...
FRUSTRATING

Hi Kazman,

Try to disable the "assist using reel name" function under the "Master Project Setting"

I usually do this if I use XML.

open a fresh project on your editor and try to use the XML there first... If all good then we go to the next level.

post a sceeenshot of the data page and the edit page

Check in the media page that you can actually see the video files there when you browse through the hard drive and folders. If they don't show up there it may be related to something else than DaVinci itself.

Usually in my case that means the files don't have proper naming, such as the .mov extension or the file is corrupt somehow.

In Premiere:

-select all the clips in your timeline
-control click
-select render and replace (this converts everything to .mxf)
-export XML and import into DaVinci

I was experiencing the same problem and this solved it for me!

Apologies for necroing this post, but as a new Resolve user, I ran into this issue in v15 for macOS, so I thought I would share how I resolved it. This assumes you're starting with a new project and no existing timelines or media in it.

With a project open, go to the preferences panel (cmd , ) and in the "Media Storage" section under the "System" tab, add the media drives at their highest mount point ("/Volumes/Media" not "/Volumes/Media/Camera Footage/June 9/A-cam01"), as well as the system drive (/Volumes/Macintosh HD), you can tick the box under the drive list that says "Automatically display attached local and network storage locations", then click Save.

Once you've done that step, you should be able to go to the media pool and import your XML.
