How to export clip markers from the timeline?

I'm working on a 30 minutes interviews / documetry film.
I have clips on the timeline. they all have markers with comments.
the markers are not on the timeline - the markers are within the clips.

The goal is to export a file of all the markers from the timeline with all the comments time code etc.

Every time I try to export the markers to CSV or another format, I get an empty file.
In the markers panel, show All markers (Clip and Timeline) option is checked.
I searched on YouTube and couldn't find the answer.
How to export Clip Markers data from the timeline?
p.s
I know I can export markers from a clip in the source screen, I need them from the timeline.

Automation Blocks exports texts as utf8. Not sure what doesn't work on your system, but I just tried to
1) create a sequence marker with Hebrew name and comment
2) export it with "Export Markers to Spreadsheet" from Automation Blocks

and it worked fine (see attached screenshot)

 

 

And no, I am not aware of such an export feature without using Automation Blocks.

There is a plugin you will find in the creative cloud app called "All Markers". This might well do the job.

thanks. it looks promising at first but it turns out that the CSV file don't support Hebrew and even recode it for UTF-8 dosn't help. why the choose special non supportive codex for the CSV? - ...Adobe!

EDIT: this comment was to the "All markers" plugin from Adobe suggeseted above.

@Takeone.Digital,

 

I don't think there is a way natively from PR. You can open a clip in the Source Monitor and then File -> Export -> Markers for that clip, but the timecodes are for the clip, not the sequence. I'm assuming you want sequence timecode. This export does include name and comment.

 

See this post for an example using Automation Blocks to export multiple sequences:

So @Mathias Moehl, does your magic extend to Clip markers with sequence timecode - and then to all sequence and multiple clips markers from a sequence?

    Probably the easiest solution is to select all clips and then copy the markers from the clips to the timeline using the Automomation Blocks tool "Copy Markers from Selected Clips to Sequence".

     

     

    Then you can Export the Sequence markers to a spreadsheet.

    thanks Mathias,
    1- do you know if the Copy Markers from Selected Clips to Sequence tool support comments in Hebew?
    2- Do you if this tool- Export the Sequence markers to a spreadsheet
    is already isn't already in Primere (marker export)?
