How to send your DaVinci timeline to FilmScribe
With the timeline open in DaVinci, go to the plugin's home page and click Upload the audio. DaVinci renders just the timeline's audio and we upload it; the video stays on your computer. After that, each module brings to the timeline whatever you want. Sending uses your plan's hours, and the same timeline is never sent twice.
Before you start
Connect the plugin to your account and open the timeline you want to use in DaVinci. The plugin follows the open timeline.
