Import to Adobe Premiere FAQ

​

Can I export clips to Adobe Premiere Pro?

Yes, you can click on Export to XML in the result page for specific short videos.

2. Click ‘Export to XML’ to download the video
3. Locate and unzip the downloaded file

​

What’s included in the exported files?

The exported file will include three components:

1. The original raw video
2. A ‘.xml’ file containing the generated clip content with auto captions, auto reframe and B-Rolls(if has)
3. A ‘.srt’ file providing captions with timestamps

Please note: Auto captions generated by OpusClip will be exported as overlays and cannot be edited in Premiere Pro.
