Export timeline but as individual clips

It would be great to export a full timeline from Premier but instead of one video, each video clip on the timeline is exported individually. This is an option in DaVinci Resolve and I've found it to be really useful. Having to do it manually can definitely be a pain.

This is just crazy. I've been trying to figure this out and reading long forum threads and complaints and talking to Adobe engineers about this for years and years. There must be some significant obstacle to implementing this because I can't believe that Adobe would be so obnoxious as to simply ignore the pleas of a huge percentage of their user base to implement this basic and vital functionality. There must be a reason they won't address this. But it's serious enough that it's becoming a deal-breaker for me. Adobe - add the basic ability to batch export individual clips with the clip's name and effects applied, even if it means re-writing the entire program.

I believe this is already an option. You can export each clip individually in multiple formats.

Exporting timeline as individual clips and at the same time retain all attributes (speed alteration, position, stabilizing, size, etc...) in order to import in Davinci for example with Edl or pre-conformed edl instead of a single clip the entire timeline, is not possible.
Its doable only as a single clip (retaining attributes) for the entire timeline, but this is time consuming depending the duration of your timeline, especially lets say you need to correct just one or a couple of clips.
It should be an option in media encoder.

I found a solution here... just select all your cuts and drag them to the project menu then go to export media and chose your settings then click on Queue, Adobe media encoder will open then you can export them all individually

Just figured it out...make a sequence with the clips you want to export individually. (On Mac) Go to file>project manager. Choose consolidate and transcode and uncheck the 24 frame handles (unless you want that).

@26914456 Carmichael...with handles, aren't you squarely in the realm of AAFs? How would the functionality differ? Genuinely curious.
