Deleted media pool, timeline clips offline

PostTue Feb 25, 2020 5:40 am

Hi All,

I had to delete all clips from the Media pool in a DaVinci project. I then imported the same footage back into the Media pool, all with the same file names. Unfortunately now all the clips in my timelines have gone red with "Media Offline". Is there a way to relink the clips in the timelines to the clips in the Media pool?

I don't think that the "Relink Selected Clips" option in the Media pool is relevant, since that only relinks missing clips in the Media pool to their source files - rather than linking clips on the timeline to those in the Media pool.

File > Reconform from Bins, and point to the bin where your new media is.

When switching media pool imports between two versions of files on the disk, please consider relinking them the next time. It preserves any media pool specific changes (metadata, markers, clip attributes) you may have while switching only the source content.
