Export with Original Clip Names

@MyerPJ: Yes, they are edited. I tried to drag the clip from my timeline and source window to Media Encoder Queue but it wouldn’t allow me to add it.

@shooternz: I’m following the editor’s process. We have hundreds of clips that need to be exported into 5-60 seconds to upload onto a stock footage website. It would be nice for reference if the outputted file matched the original shot filename.

@Neil: It’s not working for me. For example, my clip name is X00000001, and the output file I get is "airport-card-a” which is the sequence name. The system automatically adds sequential numbers afterwards to avoid overwrites.

@eikonoklastes: I’m not referring to the file save location, but the name itself. Please see above comment to Neil.

Thanks!

Are the multiple clips 'butted together' edited at all? Or do you just want to change formats? If so, you could just drag the individual clips into media encoder and bypass the PP for now?

You're exporting from a sequence, so naturally PrPro names according to the sequence.

You can select multiple clips or subclips in the Project panel, right-click Export media, and say what codec/specs you want, probably check the option at the bottom of the viewing screen of the Export box for "clip ins and outs", and it automatically queues over to Media Encoder to do the work. You may find yourself not wishing the export to go to where PrPro thinks it should, so you manually change each clip's "Output file" line for destination.
