TrackID Builder — Auto-build DJ Track IDs

Auto-build branded Track IDs for DJ mix videos in DaVinci Resolve.

Every Track. Every Lower Third. Every Time.

The manual editing problem for DJ mix videos

A 2-hour DJ mix set has 30 tracks. Maybe 40. Each one needs a lower third: artist name, track title, album, label. Placed at the exact moment the track starts. Styled consistently. Aligned to the beat. Branded with your identity.

Do it manually, and you're looking at 3 to 4 hours of repetitive timeline work. Per video. Every single time. Not creative work — mechanical work. The kind that makes you question why you started editing in the first place.

And it gets worse. Change one font? Re-do every lower third. Adjust timing by two seconds? Drag 30 clips. Swap your DJ logo? Start over.

This is the manual-edit tax. Every DJ video editor pays it. Most accept it as the cost of doing business.

The Numbers

  • 30+ tracks per average mix set
  • 3–4 hours of manual editing per video
  • 4 text fields per lower third
  • One mistake = cascade of fixes

The Pain Points

  • Repetitive placement on timeline
  • Inconsistent styling across tracks
  • No batch operations in Resolve
  • Logo changes require full rebuild

The Hidden Cost

  • Creative energy wasted on mechanics
  • Fewer videos published per month
  • Quality drops when you rush
  • Burnout from repetitive work

The Alternative

  • Import a playlist file
  • Map your fields once
  • Click Build
  • 60 seconds. Done.
Bottom line: The manual-edit tax is not a rite of passage. It is a problem with an engineering solution.

Five Steps. One Click That Matters.

Five-step workflow for automated lower thirds
1

Import

Load your playlist or cue sheet. .cue, .m3u, .csv, .pls, .xspf, .txt — all supported.

2

Map

Confirm fields — Title, Artist, Album, Label. Fix anything in one editable table.

3

Brand

Add your DJ logo once. Optionally add per-track artist images. Dual branding.

4

Style

27 fonts, 9 styles. Set sizes per field. Override per track. Live preview.

5

Build

One click places every lower third at the correct timeline position. Done.

TrackID Builder reads the files DJs actually use. Every timestamp, every artist, every track title — parsed and ready. Map the fields to your template, add your branding, style globally or per track, and press Build.

Rebuild is safe: only TrackID Builder clips are replaced. Your cuts, transitions, effects, and audio — untouched.

Bottom line: Five steps because four would cut corners. One click because two would be a waste.

Your Name. Their Track. One Clean Overlay.

DJ lower third with dual branding and staged animation

The included DJ lower third template is purpose-built for mix video production. It is not a generic text overlay repurposed for music. Every element exists because a DJ mix video needs it.

Left side: your DJ logo and a "PERFORMING MIX SET DJ" tagline. Your identity, present on every track. Right side: per-track artist image with an "ARTIST" tagline. Their credit, their visual.

Between the two: four text lines — Track Title (bold, white), Artist Name (bold, signature red), Album (medium, light gray), Label (regular, gray). Separated by vertical hairlines. All contained within a semi-transparent dark card that unfolds smoothly at the start and collapses at the end.

The animation is staged: dark card opens first, then text fades in line by line, then images appear. On exit, the reverse. Professional broadcast-quality motion, not a jarring cut.

Global Consistency. Per-Track Precision.

Batch styling with per-track control

Set your font, style, and size for the entire tracklist in one operation. Title in Roboto Condensed Bold. Artist in Exo 2 Bold. Album in Barlow Medium. Label in Barlow Regular. Choose from 27 Windows default fonts and 9 style variants. Scale any field from 50% to 200%.

Then, if one track needs special treatment — a featured artist with a longer name, a remix title that needs a smaller font — override it. Per-track font, style, and size overrides apply to individual entries without breaking the global settings.

Live preview shows exactly what your lower third will look like before you commit. No guessing, no build-test-undo cycles.

27 Fonts, 9 Styles

  • Windows default fonts, zero installation
  • Regular, Bold, Italic, Light, and more
  • Auto-fallback to Regular if style missing
  • Live preview with selected font

Size Scaling

  • 50% to 200% per text line
  • Title, Artist, Album, Label independently
  • Auto-size for long titles
  • Unicode controls for precise adjustment

Per-Track Overrides

  • Individual font/style/size per track
  • Multi-select for batch edits
  • Reset button restores template defaults
  • Overrides survive session reload

Image Management

  • One DJ logo for the entire set
  • Per-track artist images optional
  • PIL-based thumbnail preview
  • Lanczos resampling for quality
Bottom line: Batch for speed. Override for precision. Both without rebuilding.

Resolve-Native. No Workarounds.

Built natively for DaVinci Resolve

TrackID Builder runs inside DaVinci Resolve as a native Python script using Resolve's scripting API. It does not render externally and import. It does not generate SRT files and hope for the best. It creates Fusion compositions, places them on your timeline at exact frame positions, and lets Resolve handle the rendering.

Every lower third is a real Fusion comp with editable TextPlus nodes, animatable properties, and full Inspector access. After a build, you can open any clip in the Fusion page, adjust timing, change colors, or add effects — just like any other Resolve title.

The script discovers every installed lower third template on your system — 1219+ templates on a typical installation. Use the included DJ template or pick any title from your library.

Rebuild is safe: TrackID Builder tags its own clips with a TrackID: prefix. When you rebuild, only tagged clips are removed. Your cuts, transitions, effects, and audio — untouched.

Fusion Compositions

  • Real .comp files, not rendered overlays
  • Full Inspector access after build
  • Editable TextPlus nodes
  • Animatable properties

Timeline Placement

  • Frame-accurate positioning
  • Framerate auto-alignment
  • Target track selection (default V2)
  • Deterministic, repeatable results

Template Discovery

  • Auto-scan of all installed templates
  • 1219+ templates on typical systems
  • Third-party lower thirds supported
  • Included DJ template optimized for mix sets

Safe Rebuild

  • Only TrackID Builder clips are removed
  • Your edits, cuts, and audio stay
  • Managed-clip tagging system
  • Rebuild without fear
Bottom line: TrackID Builder does not work around Resolve. It works with it. That distinction matters.

31 Tracks. 60 Seconds. Zero Excuses.

Performance comparison — 98.5% time saved

TrackID Builder
~60s
98.5% Time Saved

TrackID Builder has been tested with a real-world 31-track CUE file from an actual DJ mix set. Import, map, brand, style, build — completed in approximately 60 seconds. The same task done manually takes 3 to 4 hours.

This is not a theoretical benchmark. It is a measured result from production use.

Bottom line: The math is simple. The decision should be too.
