How can we improve Premiere Pro?

← Premiere Pro

CSV Markers file IMPORT to sequence or clip

We can export markers, but not import them.

Import -> CSV or TXT or JSON -> markers to sequence or markers to clip.

Nothing too smart, just timecode and marker, maybe even the comment.

This would help integrate with nonstandard workflows and would help prevent us moving the whole workflow to a competitor product.

    There now is a free extension that does the job!

    Because Adobe has still not integrated this feature, as of April 2021 (PPro 15.0), I have developed an extension that can import timecode-related information from CSV files and will automatically create markers in the active sequence, based on the CSV data. This tool – I called it Markerbox – helps me save a lot of time, and so I want to make it available to everyone.

    Markerbox is currently in beta stage, supporting CSV files from Screenlight.tv, Magix Sequoia and Adobe Premiere Pro, and it offers different options for the import, e.g. rules to color-code markers based on edit names. More formats and features are planned. 

    For the next stages, and especially for the support of further CSV file formats, it would be great to get an idea of what you guys actually want to import. Feel free to check out details at markerbox.pro and contact me directly.

    Please make it possible. I use SyncSketch, ScreenLight and similar review tools, and this would allow me to import CSVs as overlay text or marker comments, which all of them are missing.

    Amazing how many comments there are on this sub, come on Adobe we need an import function of CSV / XML which contains text, timecode, color information and we can append that to a clip in the Bin. Can't believe we don't have it

    Marker import would improve workflow with customers and the will give us more time for creative editing.

    I'm looking for a way to automate the creation of markers based on client feedback I received in an Excel sheet. Each note has a specific timestamp... so it seems like this shouldn't be so hard?

    This would be extremely helpful for me. I need to tag hundreds of frame-accurate moments throughout a full-feature length title. Sometimes I have partial metadata from other sources that I would like to import as a starting point and then expand upon it using markers.

    with the rise of automated and low-cost transcription/caption services, this would be great for documentary work.
