After Effects is not finding unlinked images when I replace footage

Since the last update, when I have multiple unlinked files(footage and images), when I replace footage on one item, After Effects still finding the other unlinked video files but no the images, so I have to relink the images one by one. The names of the images are the same and are placed in a equal folder structure as the old loaded files. Is this a bug or I can fix it with some setting?

Tanks for the response. Finally I found the error: an extra space was added while I batch exported some arboards on Illustrator, so the files didn't have the exact same name 😄

Thanks for reaching out, Cefalopodo.

 

It doesn't seem like a bug. Works fine at my end. Are you on MacOS or Windows? Is the location of the media synced with the cloud (Google Drive, Dropbox, etc)? Is it in an external drive or a shared location? Can you try testing it with a different location?

Let me know.


Thanks,
Nishu
