Convert Shotcut Mlt to Blender friendly EDL

Convert the Shotcut MLT files into a Blender friendly CMX 3600 EDL format by using a python script (exe build for Windows). Which means that you can do your editing in the free, cross platform, video editor Shotcut and import that project into Blender for working on the post effects.

Download and more info here: http://eyeframeconverter.wordpress.com/mlt2edl/


So errors where reported in the exe build, so I’ve tried to build with pyinstaller istead of cx_freeze. I hope this one works better. So try to redownload it.

So i can’t upload an edl or txt here so i ll paste the contents of the edl. i can send you the file via email if you want.

Campbell Barton quickly fixed a bug concerning video+audio was only imported as audio:

So grab one of the latest Blender Beta builds: https://builder.blender.org/download/

And things should import okay now. :slight_smile:
