NLE Marker Export

Review notes that land in your timeline.

Collect feedback in Dusken, then export every comment as timeline markers. Open the file in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve and cut against the notes. No retyping timecodes.

At a glance

  • EDL for DaVinci Resolve
  • XML for Premiere Pro
  • CSV for everything else
  • Transcribed voice comments

What you get

What the export gives you.

EDL for DaVinci Resolve

Export a CMX3600 EDL and import it so comments land as timeline markers at frame-accurate timecode, drop-frame aware.

XML for Premiere Pro

Export XML and import it in Premiere. Comments arrive as sequence markers on the exact frame, no manual timecode entry.

CSV for everything else

Need a spreadsheet or a different tool? Export every comment with its timecode and author as CSV.

Transcribed voice comments

Voice and video feedback is auto-transcribed, so the marker text is readable instead of a clip you have to play back.

Markers on the exact frame.

Every comment exports at its timecode, frame-accurate at your sequence frame rate. The note sits on the frame it's about, not three seconds off.

Open standards, no plugin.

Dusken writes EDL and XML that any compatible NLE reads. No panel to install, no account for your editor, no Adobe ecosystem required.

Voice comments, already text.

Reviewers leave voice comments. Dusken transcribes them, so the marker that lands in your timeline is readable text, not an audio file to scrub.

How it works

From review link to timeline markers.

Three steps from feedback to a cut against the notes.

1

Collect feedback in Dusken

Reviewers pin notes to the exact frame by text, drawing, or voice. Voice and video are transcribed so every note is searchable text.

2

Export the markers

Pick your format: EDL for DaVinci Resolve, XML for Premiere Pro, or CSV for anything else. Dusken matches your sequence frame rate.

3

Import and cut

Open the file in your NLE. Comments arrive as timeline markers at the right timecode. Work the notes without leaving your edit.

The shift

What changes with Dusken.

Without Dusken

Two monitors. The review link on one, Premiere on the other, retyping every timecode and note by hand.

With Dusken

One import. Every comment is a marker on the exact frame, transcribed and ready to cut against.

“I used to copy timecodes from a review link into Premiere by hand. Now I import one file and every note is a marker on the exact frame.”

Video Editor

Why editors keep it in the timeline.

No retyping timecodes

The single biggest time sink in review is copying notes and timecodes by hand. The export removes it entirely.

Fewer missed notes

When every comment is a marker on the frame, nothing slips through. You cut against the list, not your memory of the call.

Reviewers stay free

Clients and stakeholders review from a link with no account, and you still get a clean file to import. Reviewers are always free.

Questions before you start.

DaVinci Resolve via EDL and Premiere Pro via XML, both as frame-accurate timeline markers. You can also export CSV for any other tool. The export matches your sequence frame rate, including drop-frame rates like 29.97.

No. Dusken exports open-standard EDL and XML files. You import them with your NLE's built-in import, so there's nothing to install and no account for your editor.

Yes. Each comment exports at its timecode, frame-accurate at your sequence frame rate. Dusken handles common rates from 23.976 up to 60, drop-frame included.

Voice and video comments are transcribed first, so the marker carries readable text. You don't import an audio clip, you import the words.

No. Reviewers open a link and comment with no account. Reviewers are unlimited and free on every plan, and you still get a clean marker file to import.
