RED EXCLAMATION MARK ON VIDEOS DUE TO RENAMING

Hi,

 

I observed that whenever a video project is completed in Rush (without render) and if i choose to rename the folder on the HD where the  original videos are located, Rush suddenly assumes the videos in the prohect is lost and and at the edit page all the video i edited i shown in a red exclamation ! marks. I encountered this several times. Luckily i have not redered the files yet, but just did the edits and kept them on Rush program. The reason for this is since all my footage are on 4K i assume it will take a long time to render. But this "suprise" of lost files merely due to a renaming of the folder i absolutley troublesome. I had to re-pull my videos and do all the edits again from my HD. Can you Rush be programmed to keep videos intact even if orignal localtion of the videos are renamed? Please advice.

Sorry about that, @maxv1936936,

Unfortunately, changing the location of the media files will cause them to be offline and would need to be reconnected afterward. What you are looking for is a feature request for automatic relinking. I have added the feature request label to the discussion. Thanks for letting us know, and apologies for the hassle.

 

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Kelvin,

Thanks for the update, as you saud a re-linking function would be helpful.
