Thank you for your patience in always showing me what to do. I have
compiled, but "Export to EDL" keeps giving me the same errors.

Maybe there needs to be a way to indicate the path to the original
files used? The first lines of the EDL file I created are:


yeah.... but i tried to mimc what openshot and blender do - they add comment (starting from *) where you list your source... 

https://www.openshot.org/static/files/user-guide/import_export.html

see example here... 

may be put all source files in same folder as EDL and export from this? 



TITLE: Cinproj   FORMAT: CMX 3600 4-Ch
FCM: NON DROP FRAME

But the title I gave the project is not Cinproj and neither is the
title of the mp4 file I used in the project.

interesting question - should this title come from videotrack name or some other place? (user-editable may be?) 

right now this line is hardcoded... 

i saw * Format  1080 p 24fps  (as comment, on new line) again at this page:

https://xmil.biz/EDL-X/EDL-X.shtml
you can find huge pdf file describing this cmx format at this site (half of file about diskette / floppy format those systems used!) 

may be those high-end editors just accept/create/interpret those comments equally? 

Try to edit your edl file until at least one other NLE accept it - then tell us about what was wrong with Cin's file?
