Re: Split and Add not working as I think it should?

Hi Jay,

Yeah, it's a little confusing... "split" in the media pool refers to making separate media pool entries out of a single piece of media (usually camera takes) so that Resolve won't automatically share grades between them. It doesn't split them into shots in the timeline.

For what you want to do, to use an EDL as a cut list, you should navigate to the DPX sequence in the media browser and right click it to use it for "scene cut detection." The will load it into the scene tab where you can either use the automatic cut detection (which you don't need to, because you have an EDL) or "load EDL" which will insert all the edits listed in the EDL.

Then hit "split" to split your DPX sequence into multiple media pool entries and you are good to go. The Scene Detection window is also a good place to check the EDL you have, and remove through-edits or add ones that might need to be put in for grading purposes...
