  • Davinci Overwriting files in timeline

    Posted by Scotty Kunkel on November 6, 2014 at 1:29 pm

    I have multiple clips in a timeline that all come from the same source, lets say a one camera interview, and so with the selects made from that one video file from the one source, Davinci keeps saving each little edit as the same name. Thus resulting in a timeline with the same interview select over and over and over for the duration of the video. Is there a way to fix this? I have “Render each clip with a unique filename” and that works if each select is from their own source file, but not if multiple edits are from one source file (i.e. BMCC_001.MOV) and cut up into a timeline. Does anyone know how to get the video clips to render separately?

    Hi, which OS and Resolve version are you using?

    in the delivery tab, make sure you’re in ‘intermediate’ render settings mode, then check the ‘Render unique filenames’ box and you’ll see the result you want. Or, render DPX sequence, since that won’t overwrite based on filename (as each frame has a unique number).

    cheers,

    John
