Description

The EditingTools.io Marker Converter helps with converting sequence markers into various file formats. This app is a smaller version of our online marker converter and works completely offline.

We build this app with security in mind, which means no data is shared with any third party and everything is stored and processed locally unless you choose to share the files. Data processing is local, secure and confidential and can also be used for top secret projects.

Supported Formats:

  • CSV, TSV
  • Avid Media Composer (Text Markers)
  • DaVinci Resolve (EDL Marker)
  • Premiere Pro XML (Final Cut 7 Sequence with Markers)
  • PDF [only export]
  • Reaper 7 (.csv) [only export]
  • Riverside.FM Notes (Copy & Paste) [only import]
  • Excel [export only]
  • PTX Marker for Pro Tools [export only]

Modification Features:

  • Remove empty makers
  • Remove line breaks & diacritics
  • Swap Name and Comment values
  • Swap User and Comment values
  • Strip HTML tags
  • Set default marker color & Filter by color
  • Works on air-gapped systems

Command Line Support (macOS)

Got a lot of files, or want to plug the converter into your own pipeline? You can run the app straight from the Terminal. That makes it easy to use in shell scripts, watch folders or automation tools.

Command line support is available from version 1.6 of the app. You don't need to install anything extra.

"/Applications/Marker Converter.app/Contents/MacOS/Marker Converter" help

Here's an example that turns a DaVinci Resolve marker EDL into an PTX for Pro Tools at 25 fps:

"/Applications/Marker Converter.app/Contents/MacOS/Marker Converter" convert \
  --input ~/Downloads/markers.edl \
  --from davinciResolveMarkerEdl \
  --to avidProToolsPtx \
  --fps 25

The new file is saved next to the original with "_converted" added to the name. You can also define a own file path and name for the converted file using the --ouput attribute. All the modifications from the app are available as options too, like filtering by color, removing line breaks or swapping name and comment. Type help to see every option and formats to get a list of all supported formats and frame rates. Everything is converted local on your device.

Using it from Python

We put together a small Python script that wraps the command line tool. You call one function, pass in your file and settings, and get the result back with the output path and the number of converted markers. Feel free to copy it into your own tools.

Good to know

  • The App Store version runs in Apple's sandbox. From the Terminal it can only read and write files in your Downloads folder.
  • The direct license version has no such limit and works with any folder, including network drives.
  • The free trial converts the first 3 markers per file, just like in the app.
  • You can convert many files in one go, for example all EDL files in a folder.
