Move clips to new bin = all clips say media offline

PostThu May 01, 2025 2:48 pm

Hi all,

# 1 My Studio 20 timeline works fine

# 2 I want to reorganise / tidy my Media Pool so I create a new bin and move my clips to the new bin.

#3 In the Media pool the clips still look fine (I have not changed the path on my hard drive) but in the timeline all the clips say "Media Offline"

Is this expected behaviour and can I fix it?

I just tried this by creating a new bin and moving some clips from the Master bin to the new one. It had no affect on what was displayed in the timeline.
One would expect to relink clips if they are moved, but I'm not seeing this. ;)

@Charles ok thanks I have tested this some more - so yes if I move a clip to a new folder / bin there is no problem - but if I move a bin then this is when I get Media Offline in the timeline, and I don't know if there is any way to fix the Media Offline. Can you try this to compare ?

Nothing changed for me when I moved a bin. (20b2 for Windows.)

Can you show us exactly what you're doing with a screen recording?
