Question 1

Which marker formats can it convert?

Accepted Answer

It reads Avid marker text exports, Premiere Pro marker CSVs, EDLs with locators (Avid LOC lines and Resolve marker EDLs), SRT/VTT, YouTube chapter lists and generic CSVs — and writes Avid marker text, Premiere CSV, Resolve marker EDL, FCPXML, SRT, VTT, YouTube chapters, CSV and plain text.

Question 2

How do I import the markers into Avid Media Composer?

Accepted Answer

Export the Avid format, then in Media Composer open the Markers window (Tools → Markers) and choose Import. The file is the tab-delimited text Avid expects: name, timecode, track, color, comment.

Question 3

How do I import markers into DaVinci Resolve?

Accepted Answer

Export the Resolve marker EDL, then in Resolve right-click your timeline → Timelines → Import → Timeline Markers from EDL. Colors are carried through Resolve's color names.

Question 4

Does my file upload anywhere?

Accepted Answer

No. Everything is parsed and converted in your browser — nothing is uploaded to any server. You can confirm it in your browser's network tab.

Question 5

Are timecodes frame-accurate, including drop-frame?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All timecode math runs through a real timecode engine with proper 29.97/59.94 drop-frame handling, and you can set the sequence start timecode so markers land exactly where they should.

Question 6

Can I turn subtitles or a transcript into markers?

Accepted Answer

Yes — drop an SRT or VTT and each cue becomes a marker (first line as name, rest as comment). The reverse also works: markers export as SRT/VTT cues.
