Opening EDL in video editing software
Last updated

EDL is compatible with all major editing software.
Adobe Premiere
Avid Media Composer
Final Cut Pro 7
(it has a free version)
And any other editing software that lets you import an EDL file…
To import the EDL and reconnect the sequence
Import the EDL
Go to the sequence
Reconnect the offline sequence
Continue your editing
In adobe premiere there is an option to align timecode
The Align Timecode option is also checked by default to align the media file's source timecode to the clip being linked.
This option can be useful if you imported in autoEdit footage directly from a camcorder that might have camera time codes offsets (eg rec run, time of the day, free run etc..) as autoEdit would read the metadata of the file and calculate the offset for you automatically.
For now a workaround for Final cut pro X not supporting EDL is that you can open the EDL in convert it to XML that will work with final cut X.
