Run once
Clip Exporter queues one export per clip in Adobe Media Encoder and can start the queue for you.
Your names, your audio, your presets

Build your own file names

Export audio clips
Set Source to Audio track and every clip on it comes out as its own audio file. The preset list only shows audio-only presets, so you can't pick a video one by mistake.

Presets from any location
Keep your Adobe Media Encoder presets on an external drive or in any folder. Point Clip Exporter at it once and it remembers, even after updates. A Documents folder moved by OneDrive is found on its own.
Better troubleshooting
When an export can't go through, the panel tells you why, and the success message shows how many clips actually reached Adobe Media Encoder.
About H.265: Premiere Pro doesn't let plugins send H.265 (HEVC) exports to Adobe Media Encoder. That's a limitation on Adobe's end, not a setting a plugin can switch on. Clip Exporter greys those presets out and tells you why, instead of leaving you with an empty queue. Need H.265 files? Queue with H.264, then switch the jobs to your H.265 preset in Adobe Media Encoder.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Clip Exporter save time?
Pick a track, an Adobe Media Encoder preset, and an output folder, then press Run. Clip Exporter sets the In and Out points for every clip on that track and queues each one in Adobe Media Encoder, so you get one file per clip without exporting them one by one.
Does Clip Exporter keep effects from my timeline?
Yes. Clip Exporter is designed to export timeline clip sections with effects retained, including Warp Stabilizer and Master Effects.
Can Clip Exporter export audio clips?
Yes. Since version 1.3, set Source to Audio track and every clip on that audio track is exported as its own audio file, using an audio-only preset such as WAV, AIFF, or MP3.
What is new in Clip Exporter 1.3?
File names built from blocks you choose (clip name, sequence, project, preset, resolution, date, time, counter, and custom text), audio track export, and Adobe Media Encoder presets loaded from an external drive or any folder you pick. The panel also tells you why an export could not go through. The current release is 1.3.4.
Can Clip Exporter export H.265?
Not directly. Premiere Pro does not let plugins queue H.265 (HEVC) exports in Adobe Media Encoder, which is a limitation on Adobe’s end. Clip Exporter greys H.265 presets out so you know up front. To get H.265 files, queue the clips with an H.264 preset, then switch the jobs to your H.265 preset in Adobe Media Encoder before starting the queue.
What do I need to run Clip Exporter?
Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Media Encoder in the same major version, and at least one saved User Preset in Adobe Media Encoder.
