Bulk export corrected clips but retain clip names?

PostTue Jan 17, 2023 8:05 am

Is there a bulk way export a bunch of clips that I've colored and retain the original clip names without having to make a separate export for each one. I want to send corrected clips to a client but keep the names of the files if I need to go back to the originals later.
I can lay them out on a timeline and export as "individual clips" but Resolve seems to want to rename the clips.
Seems like there should be a way to do that.

When you set it to "Individual clips" did you also select the "Source name" option? That should do it.

Damn , I just realized that not only do I want to keep the clip names but also the time code. Is it possible for those individually rendered clips to also keep their original time code?
The alternative is to make proxies which would work fine but I don't know anyway to make proxies that have color correction applied.

When rendering individual clips it does keep the timecode. Are you perhaps rendering to a format that doesn't use timecode? Or using compound clips?

Another way to lose timecode is to check the checkbox for "Render timeline effects". The purpose of that option is to enable rendering effects like speed changes even when rendering individual clips.
