Displaying Information About Motion Effect Type Changes
Whenever motion effects in the Timeline are rendered or rerendered, the Avid editing application uses the Motion Effects Render Using option in the active Render setting to define the motion effect type for the new versions of the motion effects. For example, you might start a project using single-field media and the Duplicated Field type for motion effects. Later, you might rerecord the media at a two-field resolution, set the Motion Effects Render Using option in the active Render setting to VTR-Style, and submit the whole sequence for rendering. By doing this, you create new motion effects that are higher quality and that can play with the two-field media.

Changes to motion effect types are permanent changes to both the Motion
Effect clip and its associated media. You can return to the old motion effect
type only by rerendering. To avoid unnecessary rerendering, make sure
that the Motion Effects Render Using option in the active Render setting is
set to the motion effect type you need.

The Avid editing application writes a message in the Console window whenever it changes the type of motion effect during rendering. You can check these messages to verify the changes that the application has made to your motion effects. Motion Effect icons in the Timeline also change to reflect the new motion effect type.
