Davinci Resolve Advanced Importer

Tool for automatically syncing a directory to a DaVinci Resolve bin.

Why

Resolve is an amazing NLE but lacks a lot of the basic functionality and polish that can enable quick production. I created this to fix those gaps and speed up my YouTube workflow.

How to use:

1. Set your Resolve External Scripting Setting setting to Local.
2. Start Resolve and open a project (the importer works with the opened project).
3. Start the importer.
4. Pick a directory to sync.
5. Pick a bin to sync that directory to.
6. Click "Start Auto Importer".

How to develop:

Test with ("npm i nodemon" first):

nodemon .\resolveAdvancedImporter.py --ignore *json

pyinstaller -F --noconsole --icon=resolveImporter.ico .\resolveAdvancedImporter.py && copy config.json dist\config.json && ren dist "Resolve Advanced Importer"

Create OSX app with:

pyinstaller -F --noconsole --icon=resolveImporter.ico ./resolveAdvancedImporter.py && cp config.json dist/resolveAdvancedImporter.app/Contents/MacOS/config.json && mv dist "Resolve Advanced Importer"
