Consolidating Media
When you consolidate media files, the system finds the media files or
portions of media files associated with selected clips, subclips, or
sequences. It then makes copies of them, and saves the copies on a tar-
get drive that you specify. Because the Media tool displays only master
clips, you cannot consolidate subclips or sequences with the Media
tool. You can consolidate master clips, subclips, and sequences in
the bin.
About the Consolidate Feature
The Consolidate feature operates differently depending upon whether
you are consolidating master clips, subclips, or sequences. There are
also different advantages in each case, as follows:
Master clips: When you consolidate a master clip, the system cre-
ates exact copies of the media files. If you link the original master
clip to the new files, the system creates a master clip with the file
name extension .old that remains linked to the old files. If you
maintain the link between the original master clip and the old
media files, the system creates a new master clip with the file
name extension .new that is linked to the new media files.
