Installation
- Python
You need to install version 3.6.x. - PIP
- Windows
- python -m pip install --upgrade pip
- macOS
- curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
- python get-pip.py
- Windows
- DRRemote
- pip install drremote
- Davinci Resolve scripting environment
See readme file:
macOS
/Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/DaVinci Resolve/Developer/Scripting/README.txt
Windows
%PROGRAMDATA%\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve\Support\Developer\Scripting\README.txt
Usage
You must execute DRRemote in a command prompt (Windows) or terminal (macOS).
Remarks for Windows:
After you installed drremote with PIP, an executable is created as well:
%APPDATA%\Programs\Python\Python36\Scripts\drremote.exe.
To execute drremote.exe you must use the full path or extend your PATH variable.
A simple example:
- Start Davinci Resolve Studio, open a project and select a timeline
- Open a Command Prompt/Terminal and type:
drremote -m gettimeline -o out.txt
If successful you find the gathered information in file out.txt in your current directory:
Success
project=Snippets
timeline=2021-12-10-First Snow
database=2021:Disk
If you get an error, you may find some more information in the log logfile:
- MacOS
- $TMPDIR/drremote.log
- Windows
- %TEMP%/drremote.log
For the commandline arguments see drremote --help
:

[-t TIMELINE [TIMELINE ...]] [-d DATABASE [DATABASE ...]] -o
OUTPUT_PATH [OUTPUT_PATH ...] [-w WAIT]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-m {settimeline,gettimeline}, --mode {settimeline,gettimeline}

the result like timeline attributes or error messages.
-w WAIT, --wait WAIT Amounts of seconds to wait between the first and
second connection attempt
###Examples
Set the current timeline in Davinci resolve
drremote -m settimeline -t "2021-12-10-First Snow" -p Snippets -d 2021:disk -o out.txt
