1 Select one or more bins in the Media Pool.
2 Right-click the selection and choose “Export Bin,” or choose File > Export > Export Bin.
3 Choose where to save the DaVinci Resolve Bin file (.drb) in the file system dialog, and click Save.
1 Right-click in the Media Pool and choose “Import Bin,” or choose File > Import > Import Bin.
2 Do one of the following:
— Choose a DaVinci Resolve Bin file (.drb) from the file system dialog.
— Double click the .drb file in your file system.
The bin or bins will appear in the Media Pool. Any bins imported this way will have the word “import” appended to their name, to avoid duplicate names. If you import a bin that contains clips that were already in the Media Pool, the potentially duplicate clips are excluded from the import and instead relinked to the media referenced by your project. This keeps your Media Pool tidy. However, if the bin or bins have been moved to another computer, you may have to relink offline media.
Import and Export Individual DaVinci Resolve Timelines
You can export and import individual timelines from one DaVinci Resolve project into another previously existing DaVinci Resolve project, allowing you to pass timelines quickly between projects and workstations, without creating additional imported project files. Just the timeline and its associated clip information is exported, none of the actual media files are included.
1 Select a timeline from the Media Pool.
2 Choose File > Export > Export AAF, XML, DRT (Shift-Command-O).
3 Choose “DaVinci Resolve Timeline Files (*.drt)” from the format options drop-down in the file system dialog.
4 Choose where to save the DaVinci Resolve Timeline file (.drt) in the file system dialog, and click Save.
1 Choose a bin in the Media Pool in which you want the imported timeline to be saved.
2 Do one of the following:
— Choose File > Import Timeline > Import AAF, XML, DRT (Shift-Command-I), then Select a DaVinci Resolve Timeline file (.drt) from the file system dialog, and click Open.
— Double click the .drt file in your file system.
The timeline will appear in the Media Pool, along with all of the clips associated with it. Any timelines imported this way will have the word “import” appended to their name, to avoid duplicate names.
NOTE: Only a single timeline can be imported and exported at a time using this method. To import or export multiple timelines, use the Import/Export Bin function described above.
