🎬 Export Individual Timeline Clips preserving names — DaVinci Resolve Script

This script automatically adds render jobs for each individual clip on video track 1 of the current timeline, preserving the original clip names. It includes video, audio, subtitles etc, and you can configure output settings as needed.

📁 How to Use

Enable scripting in Resolve:

  • Preferences > System > General > Enable scripting

Save the script to:

%AppData%\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve\Support\Fusion\Scripts\Utility\

Run the script inside Resolve:

  • Workspace > Scripts > Utility > ExportNamedClips.py

All jobs will be added to the Render Queue.

✅ What It Does

  • Loops through all clips on video track 1
  • Adds a render job per clip using its start/end frames
  • Retains each clip’s original name as output filename
