Hi Marc,
I’ve just been trying this very thing but can’t get it to work in Resolve v12.
I have an EDL and I swapped the TAPE NAME with CLIP NAME in the comment. It now looks like this:
TITLE: PULLS_WITH_HANDLES
FCM: NON-DROP FRAME
000001 001_0280_BG01_IS01 V C 00:11:29:22 00:11:31:15 01:01:04:04 01:01:05:21
*FROM CLIP NAME: AF4A0141.MOV
I can import the EDL using “Extract reel from EDL comments” and it relinks fine. But the EDL window shows the REEL and the NAME column as the having the same data “AF40131”.
Strangely if there is no media to link to and the sequence stays offline then the REEL columns has the “001_0280_BG01_IS01” data which is what I want.
Any ideas
