Batch render events to separate files

Hi,
I have 150 DV AVI events on one time line. I have them separated by a 2 second gap. Markers are placed at the beginning of each event.

I want to use the batch render script, to render them to separate 'WMV V9 default template' files, but I seem to only get 1 file with all events, one after the other.
I have a disc from last year that I did successfully last year, but I cannot remember how I did it. I can't imagine I sat here and rendered each event separately, but maybe I did.

I would love to preserve file names, but at this point, I need to finish

Is there a script to accomplish this? I'm trying to save some time.
Or am I going about this the wrong way. Thanks for any help. John

The batch render script is designed to render regions not markers.

You can use this script that I wrote to add regions to each event:

Add Regions To Events

This script adds regions for all events on the selected track. The script names each region with a number.

Alternatively, you can use this other script I wrote that converts markers to regions:

Markers To Regions

This script converts markers to regions. The original markers are left intact. The script ignores all markers beyond the last event. This tries to duplicate a similar function found in Sound Forge.

Thanks, John. That's doing the trick. John

I posted here:

Other Marker/Region Scripts

about other scripts I have that create regions and markers. Take a look and see if there is anything else that might help you in future projects.
