Resolution
Use the source file’s resolution. When this option is selected, your Avid editing application maintains the

resolution setting in the Select Files to Import dialog box as well as the
resolution set in the Import tab of the Media Creation dialog box.
Use the current import resolution. When this option is selected, your Avid editing application disregards the
source file resolution and uses the current import resolution setting.
Ask me to set the resolution for
each file that is different from the
current import resolution setting.
When this option is selected, your Avid editing application displays a query
about resolution selection for each imported file when the resolution of the
source file is different from the current import resolution setting.

numbers logged in a scene column in the bin.
Combine events based on
camera roll and
automatically create
subclips.
When this option is selected, your Avid editing application combines all the events

film project.
Merge events with known
sources and automatically
create subclips.
When this option is selected, your Avid editing application creates subclips for

scene, and have subsequently logged all the events related to those clips for import.
