Man!! Timo Teravainen, you are the man!! Thanx a ton!
You got it exactly what I was looking for! This is what I was looking for, precisely this.
I was also going through the Resolve’s reference manual (before i tried what you suggested) and came across this process you told, which is called ‘match frame’, now i know..
Anyways I already made a new project,while i was looking for another way and was initially doing the lengthy process, so now I’m continuing within the new project only and copy/pasting the clips from the xml to the new project and building my timeline by replacing the mono audio tracks with the original media using this match frame process.
But there’s one more thing that I would like to know, that, is the video also replaced by the original source video..? I mean the clip’s video in the video track also replaced by the original source video, along with the source audio, or is it only the audio which gets replaced with the original audio? In Resolve’s manual its said that by this match frame process you can get the clip in the timeline replaced with the original source media, which i believe includes the video too… But just to make sure…

@ Joseph Owens
Yeah I’m trying to get the original stereo audio track in the timeline as opposed to the two mono tracks of the original stereo track.
Basically when i imported the xml into Resolve the single stereo audio track was imported as two separate mono tracks.. It should be imported as a single stereo track as it was in my project originally.. I don’t know but for some wierd reason it got imported as two separate mono tracks! So now what I’m doing is, I created a new project in Resolve, and i’m rebuilding my timeline from scratch coz other than this audio track problem, the titles, transitions etc were also not imported.. So there was no option other than to build the timeline from scratch. And now I bring the original clips (rushes) to the new project by first putting them from the explorer into the media pool and then open each clip in the source monitor, then mark the in and out points by looking at the edit index of the clips, one by one, from the imported xml project and then after marking the in and out points of the clips, in the new project, i drag it from the source monitor to the timelime (of the new project). But this is taking forever to get done! But I found that if I double click on a clip in the timeline (clip of an edited sequence) it opens in the source viewer with its in and out points of the clip’s duration on the timeline; so i thought if i copy paste the edited sequences from the imported xml project to the new project i created, where i’m rebuilding my timeline, and remember the clips imported in the xml had mono audio tracks instead of the single stereo track, and after pasting those edited sequences to the timeline of the new project, if i then double click on the clips of the edited sequences on the timeline, every time I double click a clip on the timeline it will get opened on the source viewer with the in and out points already marked according to the duration of that clip on the timeline, and now if i drag it again from the source viewer to the timeline i’ll now have the edited duration of the clip brought to the timeline with its original linked stereo audio track!
but i can’t drag it back to the timeline so that a new (copy) instance of the clip is created on the timeline, this time with stereo track, coz now maybe the portion of the clip dragged to the timeline is from the original clip like how we normally drag a clip from the source viewer to the timeline and it comes with original embedded audio track. Coz if it can be done this ways it’ll save me days of unnecessary work of jotting down the in and out points of the clips in my edited sequences from the edit index of the imported xml project and then marking the same in and out points of every clip individually and bring them one by one to the timeline of the new project that i created.. But it is not happening coz when i double click a clip on the timeline it opens in the source monitor but can’t be brought back to the timeline.. I also tried creating a new timeline so that i paste the sequences from imported xml project onto one timeline and then after double clicking a clip from the timeline and it gets opened in the source monitor then dragging the clip to the new timeline…
So.. I need help with this to know is there a way i can bring the clips from source monitor to the timeline..?

Thank you Kalleheikki.
Is there any other way than exporting as lossless compression image sequence..? And if done this way which of the three formats you mentioned is best, PNG, TIFF or TARGA? and how to export it as a lossless compression image sequence? Also I don’t want to open it as a footage in photoshop, wanna edit frame by frame as a still image..

About the other option you mentioned, how to open just the first frame..?
And can you elaborate a little on localized corrections?

Steve

Thank you Dave.
Well yeah i know suggesting a solution without actually seeing the footage is kinda tough and it sure is dangerous..
But is rotoscoping the only solution..? Can’t we enhance the illumination somehow..?

Also it would be really helpful if could you suggest any video tutorial that shows how to do all this.. I mean this entire process between premiere pro and audition, which explains all the sending from premiere, then editing audio in audition then 5.1 mixing in audition then expirting all back into premiere, the stems n all..

Best,
Steve

And now I have been advised by the expert in premiere pro forum to also ask this query to the audio professionals so as to what they have to say on the subject into consideration…

And here on the other hand, I am not allowed to get opinion from them… Please let me get the audio professionals opinions… Its really important… I can’t move further with my project… Please let me ask the same question to the audio experts… And not put me in moderation…

Thanks in advance… Kindly consider this…

“I usually get 6 mono channels then I put them back to 6 mono channels mapped for 5.1 in a 5.1 sequence in Premiere.”

So that means I should do the mapping of individual mono audio dialogues clips, sfx clips in premiere first and then do the mixing in audition..?

“For some projects they also export stems that are group of audio sources mixed together to keep, for example. dialogues separated from music and effects in case the dialogue should be replaced for an international version… For my premiere project I get the 6 mono master channels…”

Yes, that is what I was worried about.. How to export the stems? Coz I would be needing music and sfx separated from the dialogues for dialogues to get dubbed in other languages layer on…

@Pierpaolo Ferlaino

One more thing…
I have 5.1 sequences in my premiere pro project.. And after I do the mix in audition and then export the sequence back into premiere pro; will the exported master track from audition be on the 5.1 master track in premiere pro or will a separate 5.1 master track be created in premiere pro for the exported audition master track..?
