thumbnail retention

PostWed Aug 05, 2020 4:35 am

Using DR to catalogue a large amount of random clips. Upon re-opening the project (stored in PostgreSQL), I noticed it was rebuilding the thumbnails from scratch. This is a pain. Is there any way to have DR cache the thumbnails for browsing in the MEDIA tab?

I checked the "save timeline thumbnails with project" box found in
PROJECT SETTINGS > GENERAL OPTIONS > COLOR

But obviously that only works with timeline items and not other media items in the media pool.

Am I missing something?

It takes minutes to regenerate them all and it slows down my workflow.

I'm not aware of any other settings.
