Installation Steps

• Download Clipit from Blender Market as a zip file.
• In Blender, navigate to Edit > Preferences > Add-ons and click on the "Install" button.
• Locate the downloaded zip file and click "Install Add-on."
• After installation, search for "Clipit" in the preferences window.
• Enable the addon by checking the checkbox next to its name. Internet connection is required only during the first installation to install necessary Python dependencies.
• Click on the hamburger icon in the bottom left corner and select "Save Preferences."

How to Use

• Click on File > New > Video Editing to create a new workspace in Blender. A timeline will appear below, and the video player will be located above.
• Clipit can be found in the right side panel of the timeline under the Clipit tab.
• Refer to the product's images for guidance on how each option functions. Alternatively, hover over any option, and Blender will display a brief tooltip explaining its purpose.

Importing Timeline to Adobe Premiere Pro

• Export your Blender sequence using Clipit as an XML file.
• Open Adobe Premiere Pro and create a new project.
• Double-click on the project window and select the exported XML file.
• A new sequence will be created, containing the edited timeline.

Importing Timeline to DaVinci Resolve

• Export your Blender sequence using Clipit as either an XML or OTIO file.
• Open Davinci Resolve and create a new project.
• Navigate to File > Import > Timeline and select the exported XML or OTIO file.
• A new sequence will be added to the Media pool, containing the edited timeline.

Importing Timeline to Final Cut Pro X

As of now, Clipit doesn't directly support exporting FCPXML files. However, you can still achieve this by using an external program to convert the XML file to FCPXML format.

One free option for conversion is to utilize Davinci Resolve:

• Import the timeline into Davinci Resolve as explained earlier.
  
• Navigate to File > Export > Timeline and select FCPXML format.

Now, in Final Cut Pro X:

• Choose File > Import > XML.
  
• Locate the XML file you wish to import and click Import.

Please note that Clipit itself doesn't function on MacOS.
