Conform

To conform is to import an editor’s timeline (as an XML, AAF or EDL) and have Resolve relink every edit decision to the full-quality original camera media, producing a frame-accurate rebuild of the cut ready to grade. Resolve matches shots on timecode and reel/source name, but you always verify the result against an offline reference with a wipe, because reframes, flips and timecode mismatches do slip through.
