This is an absolute necessary feature! The manual sorting (drag and drop) either in the bins or even better in the Media Pool is for me a must and helps to save the time.
I'm not sorting clips with metadata, filename etc. etc. Let me explain why I prefer a manual sorting (drag and drop):
I was from Jan - March 2020 (yes, just before the Covid Lockdown...) on a world tour and we have hundreds if not thousands of pictures and videoclips form our trip, made by different people with different cameras. Of course, we have not synched correct date and time...
.
So my workflow is to import all medias from the different people at first into Adobe Lightroom Classic and sort all into separate "collections" named eg. "Australia, Melbourne", "New Zealand, Rotorua" etc. In Lightroom collections it is very easy to sort by drag and drop and so I can finally making a slide show incl. all the video clips.
However, I would like to do the slide shows in DaVinci Resolve (currently using 16.2.8) as I have much more flexibility (sound, colors, titles & subtitles etc.) and therefore I would like to have this "user sort".
I know that I could rename in Lightroom all pictures in an ascending order and import into the DR media pool - but when editing in DR I miss very much the user sorting feature. The sorting within the timeline is possible but when you have 60 clips per location then its not very comfortable.
