Automatically
AMA-link to volumes
With this option enabled volumes/disks are automatically mounted. With this option
disabled, you can load media without the clips appearing in a bin.
When mounting
previously mounted
volumes, do not check
for modifications to the
volume.
If you select this option, your Avid editing application automatically scans and links
all clips from the third-party device and drive every time a device or drive is attached
to your system. If you do not select this option, the system checks the modification
date of the device or drive against the last time the clips were linked. If the date is the
same, the clips come back online. If the date is different, the system links the clips
again, and links any new clips added to the volume. The option is off by default.
