Chapter 5 Importing Files

Batch Importing High-Resolution Media
Once you finish editing your sequence using proxy media, you can replace the
low-resolution media in the sequence with the corresponding high-resolution
media by using the Batch Import command. The Batch Import command
allows you to reimport the high-resolution DVCAM or MPEG IMX files
while automatically linking the new imported material with the sequences and
master clips created with the low-resolution MPEG-4 media. If you are batch
importing media for an edited sequence, the import operation copies only
those portions of the high-resolution master clip needed by the sequence, not
the whole clip. If you are batch importing master clips, the import process
copies entire clips.

The Disk Label column in the bin headings displays the XDCAM disk labels
created when you imported the XDCAM media. For information on displaying
bin columns, see “Bin Column Headings” in the Help.
You can also import the high-resolution media files separately. Since
importing high-resolution master clips requires more storage, time, and
bandwidth than batch importing only the necessary parts of clips, you might
want to import the master clips to another workstation or to another system in
a shared storage environment — for example, to an Avid Unity server. Once
the high-resolution media are imported, you can use the Relink command to
move between the proxy media and the high-resolution media. For more
information about relinking media, see “Relinking Media Files” in the Help.
