Better project management

being able to copy media and follow the folder structure on the hard drive (or from multiple servers as folders) when media managing would be absolutely crucial in these days of COVID work from home. Please please please make this an option. It would make prepping drives for editors who are editing old content thousands of times easier.

@bart@unrealdigital.com. Didn't read anything about this, in the last updates. But i noticed a thing, that i'm sure in older version didn't work..now, seems that level 1 nested sequences will be copied, but not the level 2 and further (with level 2 i mean a nested into another nested, and level 1 is a simple clip nested).

My extension will automatically copy all levels of nesting.
You can try a fully working version (10 days trial) here: https://aescripts.com/smart-collect-for-premiere-pro/

Feel free to leave me a feedback!

Hello we are now 2021, may. Is there been any changes on this ?? I see nested sequences still been ignored?

Hello,

If you are looking to an alternative to the "Project Manager", you could give a try to our new plugin : PlumePack
(https://www.autokroma.com/PlumePack).

It's similar to the Project Manager with less bugs and there is also a Trimming feature with handles! This feature will remove the unused data of your media without re-encoding the file compared to Project Manager: your files keep their codec and exact quality. It works with BRAW, R3D, ProRes, and soon H.264 will be available.

If you want to test it before buying : you can download it for free and run the analysis. It should give you all the details about what PlumePack would do to your project.

Best,

Nicolas from Autokroma

I totally agree! After Effects "collect for output" does is properly.

It's kind of mind boggling how useless this "feature" has remained for years. If it was ever implemented properly, it would be used all the time.

And make the progress bar actually representative of the progress instead of just showing 100% from the very beginning even when there's hours worth of media to copy.

Great initiative Igor, congratulations ! We will also help you solve your issues with the Project Manager, please contact us for more information ! https://www.autokroma.com/contact
