DaVinci Resolve Script
Auto-populate the Render Queue
Run one of these commands to install the script directly into DaVinci Resolve's scripts folder:
macOS (Terminal)
DIR="$HOME/Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/DaVinci Resolve/Fusion/Scripts/Comp"; mkdir -p "$DIR" && curl -sL -o "$DIR/uvoclip_import.py" "https://clips.uvotam.com/podclip_import.py"
Windows (PowerShell)
$path = "$env:APPDATA\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve\Support\Fusion\Scripts\Comp"; New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path $path | Out-Null; Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://clips.uvotam.com/podclip_import.py" -OutFile "$path\uvoclip_import.py"
Linux (Terminal)
DIR="$HOME/.local/share/DaVinciResolve/Fusion/Scripts/Comp"; mkdir -p "$DIR" && curl -sL -o "$DIR/uvoclip_import.py" "https://clips.uvotam.com/podclip_import.py"
Or download manually and place it in DaVinci Resolve's Scripts/Comp folder.
