YouTube Chapter Exporter

Turn Resolve timeline markers into a ready-to-paste YouTube chapter list.

Choose marker names or notes, preview timestamped chapters, and save a plain-text chapter list without manually converting frame positions.

What it does for you

  • Turns your chapter markers into a YouTube-ready chapter list.
  • Filter by marker colour so your own notes stay out.
  • Adds the 0:00 intro line YouTube needs and saves a .txt file.

Requirements

  • DaVinci Resolve Studio 19.1 or newer (the free version of Resolve blocks script windows).
  • Windows 10/11 and macOS 12+ (Apple Silicon and Intel). One file works on both.
  • Install: copy the .lua file into Resolve's Scripts/Utility folder, then open it from Workspace > Scripts.
  • Tested in DaVinci Resolve Studio 21 on Windows 11. The script also runs on macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon); if anything does not work on your Mac, email support and you get a fix or a refund.
