Before beginning the reimport process, consider mounting any removable
media drives that held the original graphics.
|
To reimport imported files:
1. | |
Open the bin, and select the imported master clips and sequences that
you want to reimport.
|
2. | |
Select Bin > Batch Import.
|
A message box opens.
3. | |
Select one of the following options:
|
– |
|
Offline only: Reimports only the selected imported master clips
that are missing their media files.
|
– |
|
All clips: Reimports all the selected imported master clips; for
example, if you need to change the video resolution of the
imported master clips.
|
The Batch Import dialog box opens.
4. | |
Click Skip This Clip to remove a clip from the list. It will not be
imported.
|
5. | |
Locate the sources for files that weren't found by doing the following:
|
a. | |
Select a clip or clips displayed in red in the Selected Clips section.
|
b. | |
Click Set File Location.
|
c. | |
Navigate to the location of the source file.
|
If you select more than one clip displayed in red, the system
attempts to find the rest of the clips first in the same folder as the
first clip and then, if not found there, in folders that maintain the
same relationship with the first clip's folder.
When the clips are found, they are displayed in black.
6. | |
Click the Video Resolution pop-up menu, and select a video resolution
for all the reimported files.
|
7. | |
Click the Video Drive and Audio Drive pop-up menus, and select a
destination drive or drives for all the media files.
|
You can separate video and audio onto different drives.
8. | |
(Option) By default, the file is imported using the Import settings from
the last time it was imported. You can change the Import settings for
all clips being imported by doing the following in the Import Options
Section:
|
a. | |

Click Current Settings to open the Import Settings dialog box.
|
