It could be that this is simply a niche problem based on your process, but I wanted to post a workflow that I have found to be successful:īEFORE* you grab any stills. The fact of the matter is that grabbing stills from various timelines in your project can result in duplicate Still ID's and then upon export Resolve seems to be automatically overwriting the files as it exports each one. I experienced the issue described in the original post (using Resolve 17.4.6 on Windows PC) and didn't see a clear summary of the solution. And you can access stills from other projects, too. If we export the stills, we put each Timeline's stills in a different folder, so nothing is ever overwritten.īear in mind you can always access ALL the stills for the entire project through the Gallery. I had a situation where I made a couple of mistakes on the final two cuts of a reel, and it cost me hours of work. That way, if there's a disaster, I can always grab the original correction from a still. It's also not covered in the manual.Ī little tip I figured out over the summer: as every reel is completed (we split our features into 20-30-minute "virtual reels"), I delete the current stills and re-grab every single still from the first frame. That's an interesting problem, because it's so counter to the way I work - but I totally get that what's obvious for some may not be for others. I never considered that somebody might use one group of stills for an entire project. I always use one Stills Bin per timeline.
