Hey there!

I'm trying to set Filename on the Deliver Page to %Marker Name% but the Job gets "Untitled" as file name. Something for %Marker Notes%.

Am I missing any step? any help?

Thanks!

PS: I've attached a screen cap where the details are marked in red

I'm surprised that option is even available. As there can be many markers in any given clip or timeline, I don't see how this would be possible.

I use the marker duration to set the name for a sub clip I want to export when using IN/Out Range. For each marker "segment" with a name, I add a Job in order to render all of them.

Makes sense?

Honestly, no. You may have only one marker for that segment, but the fact that it's possible to have many makes me question that what you want is even possible. If it is, I'm not understanding it.

I'm thinking you may have to set the file name manually.

The use case is:

I'm working on a musical production based on a musical which is already recorded. What I want is split the already existing recording into chunks and export them as separate videos to give them to the dancers so they can play the part the have to practice.

After referring to the Resolve User Manual it seems that markers are not supported in the Deliver Page filename field.

Yep, found out too... what a shame... I'm doing it old fashion

Thanks Peter!
