6. (Option) You can select drives and create a drive group. Click the Target Drive menu, and

select Change Group. For more information on selecting a drive group, see “Selecting the

Target Drives” on page 195.

Because no audio is associated with titles or motion effects, you can select only a video drive in

the Titles or the Motion Effects tab of the Media Creation dialog box.

7. To apply your video resolution and drive selection to all the Media Creation tabs and the rest

of your Avid editing application, click Apply to All.

This sets your selected video and audio drives for all the Media Creation tabs. It also sets

them for any place in your Avid editing application where you select drives. Your settings

are not saved until you click OK.

8. Click OK to save your settings.

For more information about options, see “Media Creation Settings” on page 1424. You can

also view this information by clicking the dialog box and pressing the F1 key (Windows) or

the Help key (Macintosh).

Disabling Video Resolutions

To simplify the options for media creation, you can use a text file to restrict the resolutions

available for capturing, rendering, or importing. If you disable resolutions for media creation,

you can still play, export, or perform a digital cut in those resolutions.

To disable resolutions:

1. Select Tools > Media Creation.

The Media Creation dialog box opens.

2. Click one of the tabs that includes a Resolutions menu, and note the exact spelling of each

resolution you want to disable.
