Media Import XML - Definition?

PostThu Apr 15, 2021 7:16 am

Hi there, I couldn't yet find the information, so I ask.

I am researching a method to import media into resolve from a MAM/SAAS system (Iconik.io). Potentially we can develope a funtion there to create an according XML and CSV file. Now I am looking for the clean information, how the corresponding XML should like for Resolve, so that I get best result.

Can anyone help?
Thanks so much.

XML is just a language. Different NLEs use different XML input or output, but that language can be used for other purposes too.
Maybe it helps if you set up a very simple project in DR and export the timeline as an XML.
It is (more or less) human readable.
Now that the cat #19 is out of the bag, test it as much as you can and use the subforum.
