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.

I'm upvoting this as well. Manually marking something were I've got 58 TC notes in a comma delimited file is just plain dumb!

I am using the wonderfully lean Lossless Cut for pre-editing raw footage. The cuts are conveniently written into a csv file.

"Great!", I thought today. "I could actually create markers from this in PP!"

Why am I not surprised whatsoever....

I am dying for Adobe to implement this most basic of features. Every extension I've tried doesn't seem to work.

Yes, when will you finally make this necessary elementary function? There are markers in the export of EDL, but not in the import.

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.
