Timecodes exporting #116

Open washinoboku opened 1 year ago

washinoboku commented 1 year ago

Davinci Resolve has a tool called cut scene detection that can import timecode from EDL files or a proprietary format, in order to cut a video for better editing. The problem I've found with the EDL format is that if your project has a different frame rate than the file you're trying to import using timecodes, the segments it cuts automatically won't match the timecodes of the original video. On the other hand, the proprietary format uses only the frames as a reference and not the time codes. Then you can import videos with different frame rate without losing the cut position. It would be interesting if dvr-scan could export start and end events in this format.

I'm tracking something similar in Breakthrough/PySceneDetect#156, so hopefully can come up with something reusable there which will serve both projects.

Out of curiosity, do you happen to have any good resources for learning the basics of DaVinci Resolve? Thanks!

What I have been able to discover so far, was simply by trial and error. What I learned I published in the other post, since it has more logic.
