Choose a location and enter a name for the file, then click Save.

Note: If you selected the B-Reel Edits option from the “Reel conflicts” section, another
dialog may appear where you can choose a location and enter a name for a second EDL
for the B-Reel list.

If your sequence exceeds the maximum number of events for the format you specified,
Final Cut Pro creates additional EDL files.

If an error message appears, you may not be able to export an EDL in the specified format.
Try changing the options and exporting again. You may also need to simplify your
sequence further and try again.

Tip: You should also output your original sequence to tape, DVD, or QuickTime movie.
Bring this tape to your online session along with your EDL as a reference. The online
editor can use the original sequence to double-check edits and re-create effects that the
EDL left out.
