You can generate an industry-standard EDL containing the metadata needed to recreate a clip that consists of one video track and up to eight audio tracks (depending on the EDL format). For clips that contain more than one video track or eight audio tracks, you must generate multiple EDLs.

In addition to source/record timecode for video and audio tracks, you can include clip name comments, audio patching information, and the reel name in the generated EDL. This information can be useful in helping to recreate a timeline clip on another system.

To generate and save an EDL:

1. In a clip library select the clips that you want to export.
2. Click Export EDL.

   
   

   The Export EDL menu appears.

   
   

3. In the Clip list, select the clip that you want to export.
4. In the Track table, select video and audio tracks to include in the EDL.
5. Specify any EDL Save options. See EDL Save Options Group.
6. In the Output Options group, from the Output Type box, select No Output.
7. Click Generate.

   The EDL is generated and the Save Generated EDL button becomes active.

8. Click Save Generated EDL.

   The file browser appears.

9. Specify the location of the exported file and the file name, and then click Save.

   Ensure that your file name does not contain any of the following characters: ` # ~ @ $ % ^ & * ( ) [ ] { } < > \ | / ! ? , ; : ' "

   The EDL is exported to the specified location.
