This is helpful if you wish to add a selection of clips to your new timeline that you are going to select in the order you wish to add them (which is hard to do any other way as the ‘sort order’ is the default way to add clips to a timeline at the point of timeline creation). If this is checked, then no clips are added. The ‘Empty Timeline’ button is an interesting one. If you know the audio type of your media this can be selected here although, again, this can be adapted later with addition tracks of different types added at any point.
If you want you can specify more video and audio tracks at this point although it’s easy to add additional tracks later. will be of little use in the longterm (we’ll look at organising timelines in a future blog). Next, give your timeline a descriptive title as ‘Timeline 1’ etc.
Some TV playout systems require a start timecode other than 0 or 1 hour- for example, some older systems still use a start timecode of 10 hours!! When on the ‘Edit’ page choose ‘File>New Timeline’ which brings up the following dialogue box.įirstly, if you want to change the start timecode for your timeline this can be done here (although if this is something you do often it would be better to change this elsewhere).
Now that we have imported our clips and set In and Out points, we’re ready to create our timelines or sequences of clips.Īs you would expect, Resolve gives us lots of different options to do this and while this can be done in the ‘Media’ page, one of the options is only available on the ‘Edit’ page, so we will move across to that.
