One thing I just found out about with Fusion is the "Loader Node". Apparently the "MediaIn" node is not able to keep track of the media it is connected to. (Why? I have no idea.) SO if you are using a separate file as part of your Fusion Comp (like a photo, clip, or logo) and you plan on using that comp again anywhere else... you need a loader node instead of the standard MediaIn node. The loader node allows to you point to a specific file so that Fusion can find it again.
If you already built your comp using MediaIn and it says it is offline, just disconnect that node, open the bin with the file and drag it into the Fusion work area and connect the new node where the old one was connected and it should come back online. Of course you will have to do this over and over again, so best to just use a loader node.
I find this whole thing to be ridiculous. Just have the loader be the default.
