Importing comments to Da Vinci Resolve

[gkramer10]

Is there a way to sync a replay video with my resolve timeline if I did not originally export the video directly to dropbox?  I'm not seeing any way to connect the two after the fact.  Thanks!

I would like to know the solution too. Unfortunately I have to render the videos on one machine and edit on another. Apparently Resolve and/or Dropbox don't automatically sync my comments to both machines.

Hello I have the same question. It looks like I have several options to export the comments from Dropbox Replay. Is there a way to upload these to DaVinci Resolve in a meaningful way so my team can look at the comments on the timeline there?

Thank you!

I have a work around, which works on just one machine. I export the comments as CSV, then import the CSV into an Excel. The Excel generates the lines which I copy and past in an EML-file which I can import to a timeline. Very time consuming, but (just) better than adding them by hand.

I'm not sure I'm that committed. I have 265 comments on a 45min short film.

Hi all, thanks for your patience while we looked into this internally.

The team mentions that there is no current way to mass sync comments after exporting while the comment sync issues reported in this thread are fixed by Da Vinci Resolve 18.5 beta.

You can read about adding comments to Da Vinci Resolve in this Help Center article.

I hope this helps!
