A DLEDL is an EDL file based on the CMX 3600 format supported by most digital nonlinear editing systems. DLEDLS are unique to Autodesk Visual Effects and Finishing applications and contain extra comments that are interpreted by Backdraft Conform.
Using DLEDLs in your post-production workflow allows you to automate the import of media files (video and audio) residing in different locations. Instead of performing media import for each file separately, you can use a DLEDL to import all media files in a single operation, which allows you to significantly save processing time. See Creating and Editing EDL Files.
