  • Can I export EDL ordered by Source Time?

    Thanks for all your help so far, guys.

    Another question. I’m trying to export a EDL but organize the list based on the Source Time. Is that possible? The only way it’s organizing it is based on Record Time.

    I still have Shotlister – an EDL management software tool that can remake EDLs as source time, minimised spooling etc. I am sure there are other tools that did the same thing back in the bad old days of EDL

    Actually, the solution was pretty simple.
    When exporting the EDL, one of the options is to sort the based on master or on source. It also automatically says “Audio Merged” with each of those options. I didn’t want to export an audio info, so I ignored this choice, but it turns out that it effects the video sorting also.

    I just had to turn off all audio mapping at the bottom and I was all set.
