Adding Markers to Clips
You can place markers on the jog bar of source clips in the Source Viewer (or in the Media page
Viewer), and on clips that are selected within a timeline.

When you add markers to a source clip, those markers also appear in the Media Pool as
hierarchically disclosable items attached to that clip in List view (markers are not visible in
Thumbnail view). More information about using markers in the Media Pool’s List view appears
later in this chapter.
Markers can be viewed as separate clips identified by marker
name when the Media Pool is set to List view
The following procedures describe how to add markers to clips and timelines in
DaVinci Resolve.
To mark a source clip in the Source Viewer or Media Page Viewer, do one of the following:
To place a marker without doing anything else, move the playhead to the frame you
want to mark, and then press M.
To place a marker and immediately open the marker dialog to enter a name or note
within it during playback, press Command-M (or press M twice). Playback pauses
until you enter the text you want to and close the marker dialog again, at which point
playback continues.
Move the playhead to the frame you want to mark, then right-click in the jog bar and
choose a marker color from the Add Marker submenu of the contextual menu.
